Shocking decision.

Paully D

GavRedKing

IvySlayer

It was a collision

DDC1990

Should that not have been a free the other way?

Bizarre yellow card?

Saab Ed

Bye bye you big girl. Try using your feet instead of your hands. One useless pile of 50 million shiote

Ordinary man

He was liable to get that second yellow for a while now

P_1

Harsh red in my eyes, I'll take it though (all's fair in love and football :P)

Chancer3001

Sad decision. Useless ref.

Vertonghen did worse than Torres there.

Can't even be appealed cos it was a 2nd yellow. Stupid system

dfx-

Can see why he thought Torres lead with his arm.

You know you're not in the Spurs forum, yeah?

Edit: Would love to know what Mourinho said to Torres...Torres just seemed to have a 'piss off' smile on his face. Would expect him to made the scapegoat by Mourinho if they lose.

You are going to do that naturally when you jump. You can't jump with your hands by your side.

You don't have to have them by your side, but you can't lead with your arm either. You can very easily get a straight red card for it. If the ref sees it as leading with his arm - which I can understand why he would have, it is a yellow..

And not smart by Torres to do that against a player you've been niggling with all game.

GavRedKing

Great touch and he runs out of play then. :rolleyes:

GavRedKing

Curbishley on my stream.

A good draw against Spurs and Utd so far, 2 games we won last yer. :rolleyes:

Yeah he did well. Two yellows and a big girls face scrape. Winner.

Johner

Decent point, could have won if Torres stayed on though.

Panthro

fair play to AVB he was straight over with the handshake.

GavRedKing

just about the fair result. we were much better in the 2nd then Spurs were in the 1st and that 2nd yellow was terrible.

Essien

I'll take it.

Turtwig

Immediately thought Torres led with elbow. Probably how ref saw it too. It was his arm swinging motion that biased the decision against him. Vertongen should have got a second yellow for the retaliatory jersey pull on torres too. Replays showed though just telling them both to calm down would have been fair. Can't really blame the referee he saw it in real-time.

Deserved draw imo and Mata has surely shown Mou to be wrong about not playing him. Himself and Torres were brilliant, more so the latter.

Andersonisgod

Well when you see the difference between the first half and second half it's quite the justification for Mata that he should be in the side. The difference really was night and day, he was excellent. The farcical red card ruins what was looking like a decent opportunity to get all 3 points. Still though an excellent second half display, string performances from Torres and Mata offer Mourinho food for thought.

Killinator

Taking mikel off made a difference aswell, at least lamps can make a cutting pass, mikel is usually only good when we're winning already.

Mata made his point and it's getting harder and harder to justify his exclusion.

Torres looks like a man on a mission, harsh 2nd yellow but he was lucky to still be on, great to see him and be excited by his play.......finally.

GavRedKing

The only positive thing about the torres red is its only a 1match ban. we had the bettrr chances and a goal rightly ruled out but weve to beat these teams and start better also we didnt start playing until the 2nd half jose is to cautious in these games amd mata played well too when he came on

Sugarlumps

I wouldn't be surprise if Jose has he's lad out when giving his interviews. Ala Chopper.

Surely there's a chance he'll get a longer ban for the scratch?

Doff

Imagine if Suarez had to have done that scratch? Uproar.

Spursfan here.

Im happy enough with a point .

the game finally kicked into life & was great to watch esp Mata (MOTM for me) who I feel is being shafted by Maureenihio.

I thought the Torres red was deffo a 2nd yellow & lucky not to see red earlier .

Why? He got booked already. if dwan doesnt include it in the report then i dont think much will be made of it.

Just got a PM from a mod for personal abuse so I've quoted this above, the only actually insult directed towards another boards member i.e. me. What a nonsence. If the mod in question would like to pint out the specific reason for an infraction then I'd be delighted to discuss it. Cue ban.

I believe the FA can investigate players now regardless of the fact they've been booked already.
