       Haven’t seen the incidents that have occurred but it’s very
       refreshing to hear a referee take the appropriate action against
       players/management who act in a very unpleasant fashion.
       The players and management have let their club down with a
       shocking display of misbehaviour and Chris Kavanagh has set the
       perfect example to ALL referees on how to deal with
       misbehaviour.
       Now this has to apply across the board, at all levels and
       officials backed by the FA when they act. Or am I living in a
       utopian world?

       Not sure what Mitrovic was doing or thought he was doing and he
       will have to face the consequences, BUT why didn't Fernandes get
       the same treatment against Liverpool a couple of weeks ago?
       My only complaint, Antony kicked out at Robinson off the ball
       with literally his first kick but no sanction at all?
       Fulham were the better side up til that poinr but have pushed
       the self-destruct which will also affect their next league games

       Now that we are praising a referee for taking strong action I
       very much look forward to this continuing and referees dealing
       strongly with the regular antics of Fernandes who week by week
       seems to get away with diving, petulant behaviour and complaints
       to referees.
       Won’t hold my breath though……

       Mitrovic should get 5 games minimum

       The referee from his position must have had doubts as whether it
       was handball or not or if there were mitigating circumstances.
       The referee was perfectly correct not give the penalty if there
       was any doubt in his mind and also i would say from his position
       he would probably not be able to see if the ball was going in to
       the goal.
       Having watched a few replays i was still asking where on the arm
       the ball hit him and also had it rebounded off his knee.
       Correct decision reached in the end i think, but then again who
       knows what is handball nowadays.
       The red for Willian was correct, his facial expression gave the
       impression he knew what he had done.
       There is no criticism whatsoever about the referees positioning.
       Brilliant from Kavanagh to bin Silva prob for foul and abusive
       language as well as entering the referees space when in the var
       area.
       Silva deserves a few weeks in the stands.
       Mitrovic acted despicably, my thoughts about him are better
       being kept to myself, but i reckon Kavanaghs actions wete
       magnificent in the circumstances.
       Mitrovic needs a lengthy ban, and not just an additional game
       added to the three games, however i dont have faith in the fa to
       act accordingly.
       My thoughts are with Kavanagh and his family at this time,
       especially on mothering sunday.

       Striking a match official carries a 12 match ban… I don’t think
       it can be construed as striking a match official.
       However, I hope for the sake of the game they go hard on
       Mitrovic and that ANY contact with a match official going
       forward should be red carded.

       I’ve never been as embarrassed to be a Fulham fan as I am this
       evening. And that is after being so proud of that performance
       for 75 minutes. But forget the performance, those antics from
       Silva and Mitrovic are utterly abhorrent. Silva has been at it
       all season and deserves a massive ban, and although I love
       Fulham with all my heart I genuinely hope we get the biggest
       fine possible.
       Kavanagh was exceptional all game, a brilliant performance. And
       Chris, if you do happen to read this board, on behalf of all
       decent Fulham fans, and there’s plenty of us, I’d like to
       wholeheartedly apologise.
       I genuinely feel broken right now by what I’ve just witnessed.
       Absolutely gutted. And I’m not talking about the result, some
       things are more important than that.

       These type of incidents happen week in week out in grassroots
       football, I hope for the sake of all grassroots referee's the FA
       take the appropriate action and send a message to football at
       all levels that this type of behavior will no longer be
       tolerated. But as a earlier poster said don't hold your
       breath.....

       The antics of Silva and Mitrovic send out the wrong impression
       to grassroots football they appeared to act like overgrown
       thugs, i hope they are both charged with bringing the game into
       disrepute. I feel and fear for referees on the local park after
       watching those actions on live tv.

       Give it a break yourself. It was a crowded box. His view was
       obstructed and he would need to be 100% sure which there is no
       way he could have been in real time. He doesn’t possess x-ray
       vision
