       Not seen a red card like that in ages!
       Blackburn player throws the ball lightly at the head of Riley
       McGree and is sent off for it

       I haven’t seen the incident so can’t comment specifically on it,
       but it does worry me in England that refs seem happy to dismiss
       for relatively soft cases of violent conduct yet consistently
       under-punish challenges that tick the boxes of serious foul
       play!

       Petulant yes. Violent , never in a thousand years. What I'd like
       to know is who made the decision to send him off because the
       referee clearly has his back to the incident. Absolutely
       scandalous and the officials should be totally embarrassed.

       If Blackburn FC and/or the player feel he has been wrongfully
       dismissed, there's always the right of appeal (for straight
       RCs). It will be interesting to see whether (a) an appeal is
       lodged and (b) if so, whether it's successful. I make no comment
       about the incident or sanction as they're totally subjective, as
       are a lot of decisions, of course.

       It's soft, but he still threw the ball at the back of a players
       head. I can see the argument that it doesn't warrant a red, but
       I'm not sure it's clearcut either way
