    The F.A. rules regarding dangerous play;

    • Reckless is when a player acts with disregard to the danger to, or consequences for, an opponent and must be cautioned

    It wouldn't make a difference. It's down to the referee making either a bad call or a good call.

    To say Mane's was "never" a red card is just silly. His eyes were on the ball, but that means * all. It was dangerous.

    SENDING-OFF OFFENCES F.A. 2017-18

    A player, substitute or substituted player who commits any of the following offences is sent off:
    • denying the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by deliberately handling the ball (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)
    • denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent whose overall movement is towards the offender's goal by an offence punishable by a free kick (unless as outlined below)
    • serious foul play - I'd say kicking a player in the head because your foot is studds up and 5 foot in the air is serious foul play
    • spitting at an opponent or any other person
    • violent conduct
    • using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or gestures
    • receiving a second caution in the same match

    No way should he of slowed down. He looked favourite almost all the way..

    The Gordon, and most goalkeeping one's don't stand up as in some of those instances, like Gordon on Irvine, he's stopping a goalscoring opportunity..

    Ederson's so lucky he's escaped serious injury, don't like to see stuff like that in the game. I feel the safety of players still isn't taken seriously in the game so it was good to see Mane being punished on this occasion.

    KT lost teeth from a elbow and the other lad didn't even get a caution :56::56:

    That would be a coherent argument if referees weren't human and got every decision correct.

    Like saying Gabriel Jesus' offside goal should've stood because Ronaldo scored a few offside goals in last seasons CL.

    Two wrongs don't make a right.

    Why do you keep bringing up other incidents to make a point? That has * all relevance. The ref in that game was wrong not to punish Stockley.

    Two wrongs don't make a right.

    Well we know what Scottish refs are like. Doesn't mean it was the right decision not to punish the lad.

    Pretty conclusive.

    Straight red.

    Like, that's just disgusting.

    And if Gordon did it, it would be a red card for me.

    And if Kieran Tierney gets elbowed in the face it's also a red card.

    Players should not feel as though they are in the octogon doing MMA

    Straight red seems fair enough to me, simply for it being studs in the face. I know there was no maliciousness from Mane and he had to go for the ball, However if I done that on a sunday * would be wanting me to get 3 month nevermind a red haha.

    It was reckless not intentional and they are defined differently by the FA.

    Serious foul play using excessive force is a red.

    Reckless dangerous play is a caution.

    I'd say it was reckless.
