Paul Marsdens 23rd minute Red Card given to Grimsby Town's Henry
Brown at Bradford has been overturned on appeal, but what about
the Red Card that should have been given to a Bradford player
that wasn't given!?
Not the first poor performance I have seen by Mr Marsden.

His performance was unsurprisingly littered with match changing
errors but let’s not make things up that didn’t happen. I’m glad
the red card has been rescinded as it was totally wrong but
there were no Bradford players even close to a red card, if
anything Grimsby are lucky they didn’t play 88 minutes with 10
men
