       Bolton Wanderers v Plymouth Argyle.
       Ben Toner Referee.
       Just seen the yellow card for Cosgrove of Plymouth on ref watch
       and Dermot has described it as as bad a red card tackle as you
       could wish to see! 🙈

       Dreadful decision. Between the 5 officials at the game how none
       of them saw it as a CLEAR RC amazes me!

       I agree it was a red card but referees are often reluctant to
       dismiss players in showcase matches. I recall Gavin Ward failing
       to send off Matt Rhead of Lincoln for a very bad foul in this
       final a few years ago.

       As a Plymouth supporter I can confirm pretty much all our
       supporters on social media believe that should be red and most
       are quite angry with him as we don’t want to be associated with
       that sort of play .

       Unless you are Neil Hair in what I believe was the NL Promotion
       Final when he red carded (correctly) very early in game

       I get the cup final bit and being a showpiece final but referees
       need to apply law. There are many cup finals taking place at the
       top of League one and the fact Is Plymouth should be without a
       major player for 3 of their remaining 8 games so have a distinct
       advantage in the race for promotion.

       Could be wrong, but I think the suspension would have to be
       served in the EFL Trophy, which would mean next season.
       Having said that, Plymouth probably won't be in it!
