Varane was trying to flick the ball away with the outside of his foot no way planting his foot on their player,
Both players went in equally strong and the Blackburn player hammed it up but the theatrics of their no 27 was a disgrace, worst I've seen, hope he gets dogs abuse in return fixture at ours,
Their players especially the no 27 conned the Ref and he naively bought it. [Post edited 29 Sep 9:20]

It was a red. Not at Loftus Rd maybe. But definitely past Watford. | | | |

Would a Blackburn player have seen red in similar circumstances?Their players exaggerated the situation to their own ends.It was a bad tackle,but in my opinion,it was only worthy of a yellow card.Our players need to play by the same rules as other teams do to us at times. |  | | |

Only watching the highlights now. Sorry, I think that's a red. The ball was long gone and he had studs up and went in on his leg. Very bad challenge.
Travis is an embarrasment alright. What a clown that lad is. |  |

I'm not entirely sure it is a red. He slips as he goes in. The ref seems to be undecided about what he's going to do but under the pressure of the Blackburn players and Travis motioning for an air ambulance he seems to eventually decide he better give a red. I don't think we'll appeal it to be honest because we don't seem to appeal these kind of things because 3 games becomes 4 when we do so. |  |

Agree - ref hesitated for ages, then gave into pressure from being surrounded (although, true to form, no-one except Frey on our side seemed to try to persuade him otherwise). |  | | |

That's what I'm saying it's an away teams red. | | | |

Watched it back several times, barely a yellow never mind a red. If anything, Bathe was the aggressor and feigned injury to avoid being in trouble. Ironic that that was the first time he had made a positive run forward. But Santos should have been sent off seconds before so swings and roundabouts. How we managed the second half was very disappointing. I get that the first goal was a deflection but the mayhem of the opening minutes of the half set the tone. | | | |

The Blackburn player didn't have the ball. Varane lost control and lunged. The Blackburn player then came into his lunge | | | |

Has there ever been a red card for one of our players that has divided opinion so much?Some say that it was worthy of a red and others,myself included,think that it was only a yellow. | | | |

Thought it was soft. Ref was itching to give it but hardly a reckless challenge more of a lunge. It ruined the game as a contest which was both annoying and disappointing as we should have been able to compete more with 10 men [Post edited 29 Sep 13:02]

Red or yellow card, the simple fact of the matter is that with literally seconds to go until the ref blew for half time, why was he even making a challenge like that and in their half of the pitch to boot. |  |

Surprised no-one's picking up on the very late, studs up challenge on Anderson, and the different punitive outcome. | | | |

To take a 1-0 lead into the break? I'd like to see more runs like that from our midfield without the lunge at the end of course. Thought a yellow would have been more than adequate punishment, especially seeing Dolan's worse tackle near the end punished only with a yellow. | | | |

Yellow. Not a red IMO. Not high, didn't leave the ground and caught him on the side of his boot. Ref reacted to two Blackburn players making it out to be really bad rather than the actual offence. |  |

Red or yellow? Irrelevant, in some respects. What I mean is that we wouldn't be in a position to question either if Varane's decision-making had been on point. |  |

It was clumsy but definitely not a red. The Blackburn players made it a red.
Weak Refereeing that.
That aside I think Varone will turn into a very good player as the season progresses. | | | |

At full pace it didn’t look good. Slowed down it’s more a yellow
Being honest it was stupidity and unnecessary. Personally I feel should be a yellow but I am biased and have benefit of replays |  |

No malice but a lunge and hits over the ankle. Blatant red card. | | | |

Which was worrying in itself - and it was the same story with Smyth's outrageously disallowed goal, who was left tall alone o shout into the void in the referee's soul. No captain out the pitch when the bias and corruption was falling on our heads, I'm sorry to say. It's been said these players 'don't know when they're beaten', but the lack of passion out there yesterday dilutes my support, upsettingly. [Post edited 29 Sep 16:20]

Didn’t think it was a red I real time but gave that tw@t pawson enough to think about along with the Blackburn theatrics afterwards.
As it was the merest glance the wrong direction anywhere near one of their players and they were on the floor rolling around !
The cynical side of me would think eustace got his team to play up knowing prem refs give everything as a foul , all you need to do is pretend to die |  | | |

Always a red when he lunged in like that. Yes Travis is a twt, yes Batth made a meal of it and yes their player lunging in on Anderson was no different apart from the fact Lucas jumped out of the way, but he was walking the moment he lost control of that ball.
Would have been screaming for a red if that was against us.
Why do they even give these refs a choice? There is not one single ref in the Championship that I'd trust to get ANY decision right, so don't even give them any choice... |  |
