Skyline Drifter Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 39 minutes ago, King Kebab said: What a fucking bawbag Easton is, it was a reckless challenge and maybe warranted a booking but the footage shows that he cleanly won the ball and never even touched the guy!!! If we're not appealing over the red card can we not apply for retroactive sanctions being taken against Easton, if that was the World Cup he'd have been booked or sent off himself after VAR??? It's just a pity the footage doesn't show him rolling around holding his face as he did!!! Mmm, it's one of those. It's probably technically a potential red card offence. It's dangerous and if he had made any contact it's absolutely a red card all day. It does look like he made no contact though and that being the case Easton probably got him sent off with his reaction. If he'd stayed on his feet and got on with it then it might just have been a booking and a free kick. You're unlikely to win any appeal though and I doubt they'd be interested in retrospective action on Easton. They only tend to do that where there's no foul at all. In this case there certainly is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 It's a red card. Such a stupid tackle from Kane but Easton's reaction definitely makes the referees mind up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lang Toon Saintee Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 As a neutral I would say that it is definitely a booking for high feet but not a a sending off..Easton's reaction is disgusting and he should also have been booked for simulating injury.

7-2 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I'd forgotten all about Dylan Easton. What an embarrassing way to be reminded. That the SFA/SPFL wont do anything about this is a disgrace. Now, if he'd sent a tweet a few years ago they didn't like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching an U20's match a few years ago and our midfield was Craig Thomson Scott Brown Liam Caddis and Dylan Easton..I said at the time "There is our midfield in two years time the future is bright"...How right I was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee_62 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Ah well, swings and roundabouts eh? It was only last season a Forfar player was sent off for 2 bookings with the second one, the slightest touch on the East Fife player’s bootlaces but it happened right in front of the EF bench who all jumped off their seats, arms in the air, screaming for the red card. That’ll be 1-1 in OTT reactions then. Roll on the league season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 That's never a red ffs I'm not old school in the slightest but might as well pack up and go home if they're dishing out the cards for that. If that happened in an OF game and a red was issued there would be a national inquiry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Na thats not a red card. Have a hard time buying it as a yellow tbh but would accept it. Sending someone off for that is fucking ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridge of allan bairn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 was thinking of going up to perth tomorrow night to see our new winger in action but not at £15 plus £5 parking I won't be. especially now Hartley has confirmed he's effectively treating the games as friendlies.

Did you see that look of sheer agony on Easton's face as he was felled to the ground by a boot passing only a couple of feet from his chest.

He was obviously going for the ball and so was probably near him. You can’t go about a pitch Kung-fu fighting even if you don’t make contact.

LovaMan Bairn Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 You can see his studs dragging down Easton's legs if you look closely. It's a definite red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who pays the £5, and doesn't have a reason like a disability/inability to walk far, is a moron. The amount of folk who greet about being charged £15 for these games just highlights how silly this "lower prices and stadiums will be full!!" rhetoric that gets pumped out. Folk are cheapskates, it could be a fiver and they'd still moan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, nobody is forced to pay for parking that doesn’t choose to-there are hundreds and hundreds of free spaces within five minutes walk of the ground - and you’ll get out quicker at the end to boot.As far as pricing goes I’d love it if these games were a fiver a head but that’s probably unrealistic. £15 for competitive football is fair enough - and as an added bonus this’ll be one of those classic “summer football” evenings that advocates of a summer season hark on about-warm, sunny evening forecast and reduced prices. A chance for Falkirk fans to see their team take on top quality opposition from a league they can only dream about getting close to these days. They should be bringing at least 2000 through and anything less is poor tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it did why did he spend a minute rolling around holding his face and also if his shins were so injured why did the Physio only treat his head and face and not his legs???
