       Port Vale vs. Bradford City, Lee Swabey

       Swabey only cautioned a clear DOGSO RC (77'), failed to caution
       to in two OtB incidents (AA, reckless strike/blocking), and
       generally failed to change his approach in these last minutes
       when the game heated up. A shame, because I liked his manner
       generally in the minutes that I've watched (75'-).
       Would be curious if anyone watched the full match?

       I watched the 1st half only.
       He clearly should have dismissed a Bradford player for two clear
       cauitons, he was subbed at half time, which is nearly always a
       clue.

       Definite 2 yellows. Didnt see the DOGSO incident.
       Quest did show an elbow, which to be fair, was probably blind
       side to Lee, possibly should have been picked up by AR.

       I also only saw the first half.  The yellow card shown to Oscar
       Threlkeld was unarguable; a clear reckless tackle.  The second
       potential yellow was less clear-cut, I thought.  The fouled
       player was going towards the corner flag so a yellow for
       stopping a promising attack wasn't justified, in my opinion.
       The question is therefore whether it was a reckless tackle or a
       just carelessly timed one.  I would be comfortably with either
       interpretation of it, in all honesty.
