Not saying that Arfields challenge was a great idea at all, rush of blood to the head me thinks. The point I would like to make is the keeper play acting after the challenge holding his head like he was hit by a sniper, then gets up instantly to get involved in the melly. Very similar to the Villa Real sending off. I don't want to discuss the tackle, no point it was a red, if knee to head contact was made it could have been another Petr chek. Its just this rolling around holding your head stuff, seems to be returning to the game. Scottish refs arny very clever and are easily conned. These type of players need to be named and shamed.

Yup the tackle was a red not arguing it . However all this other carry on does my nut and has officials questioning if a player is seriously injured which can't be good for the players or the game in general.

What about boyata was his challenge on Sunday not a red card? The wee man was out cold for ages.

While it is definitely a red card, in the heat of a game I totally understand why a player would make that challenge as he gets a split second to commit to it and probably saw the high possibility of the ball being spilled further. If it had been spilled we would all be complaining that it was not followed up.
It looks much worse than it actually was.

You can’t make any case for that poor challenge it was completely unnecessary. Let’s be honest had Brown done that to McGregor everyone would be on here slaughtering him.

tinman, you have got to be having a laugh eh? Boyata and GMS clash wasnt a foul in any sense of the word and to even mention it as a possible red beggers belief
2 guys going for a header and sadly the lad got wiped out.

I see what your saying but he never won the ball and got the man anywhere else on the park it’s a free kick all day long.

All day long it was a red card but but but what happens when a keeper comes charging out for a high ball and more often than not when he collides with an outfield player his knee is around chest or face area.
I get the fact keeper get extra protection but the keeper holds his face like he has been punched by AJ.
10 seconds later there is he haw wrong with him
The hearts manager has again conducted himself
with his usual low standards.
Be interesting to how big a fine/ ban he gets.
