Darling red card - has it been appealed?

[Cinio Dydd Sul]

We'd be stupid not to?

Defo stupid not to. Where did you hear about this?

No new injury concerns as Swansea City wait on Harry Darling appeal | Swansea

Swansea City will wait to discover whether Harry Darling will be available to face Norwich City after appealing his midweek red card against Sheffield United.

Appeal is in.

Good. My immediate reaction, confirmed by tv replays, was that it was a very late and clumsy challenge, but not deliberate or malicious. He went to sidefoot the ball, and it was the side of his foot which made contact with the guy at shin pad level.
Never a red card, and the ref was out of his depth in that match, should be reffing in League Two.

There should be a rule that if appeals are successful, the ref in question gets stood down for a month. No arguments, go in the corner and have a good long hard think about what you've done.

Instead that clown will probably be reffing somewhere else this weekend, regardless.

I agree, but I've got a sneaky feeling the decision will be upheld, because of the recklessness of the challenge. I have no idea why Darling's foot was so high off the ground. Had he kept it down he would probably have made contact with the ball.

Norrington-Davies and Hamer should both have been red carded for two yellows. Hamer's blatant push on Ronald, to prevent him from getting away was a yellow every day of the week.

We should get Manning back just to teach our players how to win decisions, we're rubbish at it.

Do the FAW still adjudicate on our appeals nowadays?

 

[NEATH JACK 8]

Even Keith Hackett said we were hard done by. Everyone can fuck off.

 

[Resolvenjack]

If it is the FAW adjudicating then it should come as no surprise that it was upheld. Only surprise is that they haven't increased it as a frivolous appeal.

Fucking hell, it's like they didn't even think about it.

Welsh fa decision?......cardiff fan.

When we were in the PL appeals were dealt with by the FA. I don't know whether they reverted back to the FAW after relegation.
