    Sorry Jivin Turkey, I don't mean to be a bitch, but I honestly dont feel Bennett saw it. He made the decisions on reactions.

    I agree, i seen many identical tackles get a yellow card. If the player on the receiving end was from newcastle it would of been a yellow, because the crowds reaction and the hysterics from the arsenal players made it look much worse.

    Had the sending-off been deserved, I would have said Arsenal deserve the win.

    Thats a tough break for Newcaslte, but it coulda been a worse break for Gilberto.
    I don't think Jenas had intent to injure, but the tackle was very very dangerous, and he deserved a straight red.
    Harsh peno though

    Phb did you think that Bennett made the right decision considering his position and view?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,114 ✭✭✭BKtje


    I dont think he could have made the decesion.

    Regrding the tackle im unsure wether i think it shoulda beena sending off.

    There was no intent and i feel that when he went for the tackle it was more from the side than behind and became behind as gilberto turned. Id tend to lean that it was a harsh sending off.

    The peno i think was a peno. The reaction on the players face said it all.

    I think that he was right to be sent off, how the ref made that decision is beyond me, they are professionals after all, and they have techniques to make decisions that i dont have.

    didnt think it was a red card. it was bad but ive seen worse. newcastle defended well, huge improvement on last year. emre looked class in the first half. parker will be a great signing.

    so all in all this should be a good season for newcastle but they def need another striker. michael owen would be a huge sigining for them.

    The F.A. today reduced the red card to a yellow so Jenas will avoid the 3-match ban. Bennett also gave a written apology to Jenas and Newcastle.
    Althought I didn't think it was a red, that's a strange one.

    I still think it was a potential leg-breaker, very dangerous, and deserved of the red card.
