Why hasn't there been any announcement about retrospective action against Shelvey yet? His tackle on Pogba was filthier than a trash heap.
Is this true?Tweet

The system isn't there to rectify mistakes of the ref, except in mistaken identity I believe. It's there to pick up on incidents that the ref has not seen, and therefore not dealt with. So as the ref has seen it, and therefore dealt with it, it won't be reviewed. Otherwise, think how many decisions will be reviewed each week, it would be a nightmare. I'm just saying it's perfect.Is this true?
There have been numerous cases of retrospective action, anyway.
Why can't the ref come out and say that although he saw the tackle, he could not see the severity on the pitch and watching it again it should have been red card?
What a fecking awful system we have.
when I first seen the tackle I gotta be honest I didn't realise until I seen slowmo how bad and dirty it was.The Geordie fans all lapped it up too and booed Pogba from then on. I guess they are a bit starved of action up there these days.
If Lurch was my talisman every week, I guess it would be time to look for a new sport to follow.
I think the least surprising "news" of this event isn't that Jonjo is a scumbag. It's that the FA is a self-serving, hypocritical and spineless organisation, as usual.Tweet

Jenas claimed momentum made the challenge look worse than it was.I may have heard wrong, but didn't one of the pundits on MOTD blame rustiness for the challenge
That's the way I'd always assumed it worked but there's been several examples where the FA were perfectly happy to retrospectively undermine a referee's decision to send a player off, when that player lodges an appeal (including a match refereed by Marriner).The system isn't there to rectify mistakes of the ref, except in mistaken identity I believe.

When you go in with your foot mid air, studs forward and then do a lunging forward action... you bet it's deliberate.I didn't think it was so bad. Looked like Pogba just stepped across him as Shelvey reached for the ball. Bad challenge, but didn't look deliberate to me. Borderline between yellow and red for me.
Weirdly enough he is though, actually looking at the fella. He's like the personifcation of a whiter shade of pale.It's not like this guy is whiter than white either.
Pogba didn't even get defended as much when Marriner sent him off against Bellarin in one of the most bizarre and unfortunate red card incidents I've seen.Jenas claimed momentum made the challenge look worse than it was.
Yep, doesn't make sense to me neither.
OK yeah he looks like he's a walking Ku Klux clan member. Odd guy.Weirdly enough he is though, actually looking at the fella. He's like the personifcation of a whiter shade of pale.
Have a word with yourself.Typical English midfielder really. Playing like a thug to show what a 'hard' man he is.
Yeah,Have a word with yourself.
Leon Britton. Thug life.Yeah,
Charlton,Wilkins,Robson,Scholes,Lampard,Carrick et al- what thugs!
Didn't look deliberate to me. I'm not sure what a photo of meant to show - it's meaningless.
Do you think this a spot-the-ball photo, where the ball has been photoshopped out?Didn't look deliberate to me. I'm not sure what a photo of meant to show - it's meaningless.
Lindelof was booked for being pushed and accidentally handballing whilst nothing was given for the above. Absolutely scandalous.For anyone who needs reminding of how utterly clueless and shit Marriner is, we ended up with more yellows than Newcastle did (2-1).
You’re correct on all counts, especially the dr evil oneWishful thinking if you believe the FA are going to ban the voldemort looking cnut. The refs and the FA are the bigger pricks in this scenario. That thug who went studs flying into Pogba in the box first half should have gotten a second yellow. They gave Bailly an instant red for less. Then this fella who actually makes Dr Evil look like Johnny Depp comes in and tries to snap Pogba's leg in half from behind and doesn't even get booked. He should be suspended 5 games minimum but the FA will do feck all.
Yeah Upton did, more or less both him and jenas said he didn't look like he meant to do Pogba but should of pulled out, both pundits a joke, Shelvey was trying to hurt Pogba. Then Jenas just laughed off that cb fouling Rashford.I may have heard wrong, but didn't one of the pundits on MOTD blame rustiness for the challenge
