Sending off correct?

[Dr_Castro]

It might have been overturned on the basis that city strikers actually crafting a goal scoring opportunity is so vanishingly small at the moment….

[Mr Popodopolous]

I suspect the above post was humour but as per FBREF we are 13th for Non Penalty Expected goals but fall to 16th once Expected Goals that include penalties are included.

18th for shots on goal but Cardiff, Preston and Swansea have all had less..been awarded 3, 2 and 2 respectively. Stoke, Huddersfield and Millwall all in a similar boat to us this year.

Not giving a red for dogso there. What did your boy think? 

 No DOGSO. No red card.

I still think it was a penalty.  Because although some contact happened outside (and contact in itself is not a foul), the contact that tripped him was inside.  Therefore penalty.  The ref should then consider DOGSO.  Imho, if he decides it is is the box, then based on the rules I think it was a red card too, I thought it was an obvious goalscoring position.

As the ref gave the infringement outside, DOGSO does not apply (DOGSO only applies in the box, or for handballs) .  So ref shouldn’t have sent Bannan off as it wasn’t excessive force, etc, etc.

Ref got it wrong imho.

 

(I’ve learned a bit more about the rules I didn’t know previously)

Your a brilliant informative poster Dave, but DOGSO does apply outside the box. DOGSO could be applied on the half way line in rare scenarios (GK- all up for corner and team counters).

Haha, in which case my understanding prior to reading the rules was right then.  The FA page is incredibly ambiguous then!

IFAB do differing official versions of the rules, full and simplified, there is also glossaries and details, but to my knowledge that is as good (clarified) as it gets. 

The EFL website  may interest and its behind the whistle section. There is a decision featured, Red card, DOGSO outside of the area -  Behind the Whistle: The weekend's key match decisions - The English Football League (efl.com)

Thanks for that , it does add a different slant on it. IMO it is a goalscoring opportunity , although there is a defender back he isn't closing Knight who would have had a clear shot on goal as I think my screen shot shows. He could be about to shoot, be odd if he wasn't, and that looks like a decent chance to me. I don't mind they overturned it, but basically Bannon was kicking out at Knight as there was no attempt to play the ball. 
Really tough for the Ref this one.

I think what didn't help the ref was how close to the box it was as just created more uncertainty and doubt.

It kind of felt real time in the ground it had to be either a penalty or red card... A couple of yards further back I think he would have given a yellow but the extra pressure of crowd, players and also probably not being 100% sure himself if inside or outside would have added to the severity in his mind.

My Son refs, we also have one on here. The two are saying no red card. I agree as a coach.

My Son says look at the considerations, not rules as I called them - Distance from goal, defenders covering, direction of play etc.

I think they are numerous things that could have happened in a split second. I am not convinced there is not a heavy touch in there, the keeper and defender are moving to force the player away from goal, their narrowing the angle, there is a lot going on I see as a coach x those considerations. I think it fails that quick test of being a obvious goal scoring opportunity so no red card.

TBH if Bannon isn't there and a City player is in that position, I'm calling him all the names under the Sun if he doesn't score. Like I said though, not surprised it was over turned and that split second the Ref has is tough. But, IMO , that is a goalscoring chance. 
Now whether it's clear enough for the Ref to send him off , then that feels like a different decision.
Who'd be a Ref.

The craziness being that if the offence happened a yard further forward it wouldn't even have been a foul as we all know there's no way we're being given a penalty unless he's shanked by every member of the opposing team, including the coaching staff!

I think the position of ‘is there a covering defender’ comes in to it in terms of is there another defender than conceivably get a tackle in to stop the goal scoring opportunity. The last defender, is so far from the ball there is no way he is stopping the goal scoring chance. He could block the effort, but so could a goalie. 

That's the inconsistency that bugs me.  If a defender brings a player down with the keeper still in position it's a red.  If a keeper brings a player down but there's a covering defender it tends not to be, in my experience. (Though I may be imagining things there)

I like the second highlighted paragraph.  Denied by a handball offence wherever it occurs (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)....why the bit in brackets when referring to handball offences?!?  Clearly if the keeper is in the area there is no offence if he handles it!  It's like they go out of their way to make things ambiguous!

Maybe off a backpass?

[cidercity1987]

The more I think about it the more mad it is overturned.

Cynical trip literally and deliberately just outside the penalty area BECAUSE Bannan thought it was a goalscoring opportunity. 

Defenders out of position and a clear shot on goal to follow.

It would have been so unfair to be only a free kick and yellow.

Ffs Dave.... don't come at me with logic!

[cidercity1987]

I notice Brownhill was sent off for a very similar offence yesterday.

Correct decision and I bet it doesn't get overturned, or even appealed
