Red card for the keeper or not?

Having been at the game Saturday and watched the poorly and very brief highlights yesterday evening, I’m in no doubt the Portsmouth keeper should have seen red. With nearly an hour to go surely a game changer. Officials were poor generally.

Certainly agree the officials had an off day. Another decision that seemed particularly poor was Imran getting booked for what seemed to me a fair tackle. The officials seemed to be "homers". I guess it is debatable if their keeper should have been sent off - wonder if we know a referee to put this to bed?It certainly was handball although the keeper slid quite a few yards before going out of the area with the ball still in his hands. The resulting free kick would have been in a dangerous position. The highlights I have seen so far are limited and in fact miss the back pass by one of their defenders which so nearly allowed JE to score in the first half.

Hello Dave Town Colours,
Yes A Ref Could Help With This One Defo!
I’ve Just Got This Nagging Feeling And No It’s Not The Leg! That If We Had Gone 4-4-2 From The Start Then We May Have Got At Least A Replay Because According To Pumpkin And What I Heard On The Commentary That When Dernell Wynter Came On As A Sub He Was a Handful Physically For The Portsmouth Defenders.
It Is A Tough One For A Manager To Get Right Being a “One Off”Game But Sometimes You Need To Pick A Team Most Likely To Get The Something From The Game With Not Always A Formation Used Before.

Hello Terrance. You have raised playing 4-4-2 before and I totally disagreed with same. I said then in response that the manager could change the formation during the match if the chance arose. The original match formation was right in my opinion with only one up front. If we had gone with the formation you suggest from the outset my view is we could have lost far more heavily. We will never know now so I prefer not to speculate. The result achieved was tremendous. We did change the formation in an effort to get an equaliser. This was hampered with Sean getting injured just prior and Imran then having to go back to defend. Hope Sean's injury is not too bad and he is back available for Saturdays important FA Trophy match.

Yes Hopefully Shaun Fit For Leiston
My Big Concern Dave Was This That By Starting Just 1 up Front You Somehow Give The InitiativeTo Your Opponent's.
Portsmouth Remember A Team Not Used To Winning Matches.
Lewis Cole’s Ability For Winning The Ball Should Have Been Used From The Start And Dernell Wynter Is A Handful For Defenders.
Those 2 Should Have Started Instead Of Micheal Bryan And James Taylor And With Imran Uche Left Back.
It Was 70%-30% To Portsmouth Possession Wise And I’m Only Giving My Personal View In That 4-4-2 Is A Good System With Or Without The Ball.
But That’s Gone Now And As You Say Dave Town Colours Leiston Away and Hampton Tomorrow Night Away!
I Shall Be Following Both On Twitter!!!

Your comments noted Terrance and I respect your opinion. My personal thoughts are that Imran is better in midfield and has a powerful shot scoring that brilliant goal against Gosport. From corners James Taylor is our probably our best best header of the ball - particularly good at near post. I guess it was difficult for Steve Baker to decide who to leave out. Hampton have not played a match for a couple of weeks and are treating the game seriously - playing their best side per their website. Will be interesting to see how we line up tomorrow.

Re: Red card for the keeper or not? - Hampton team

I imagine our team will be much changed ahead of the trip to Leiston. Considering who was on the bench/pitch on Saturday, I’d expect Tricker and Biler to make their returns. Cole and Cain will probably come in for Uche and Donnellan. Wynter and Oduteko will most definitely come in for Moore and Bryan whilst one or two of Owoeye/MCS/OConnor are likely to replace Ewington and maybe Keita.

Should allow our best 11 to be ready and fit for Leiston and get the non starters much needed match fitness. Moving forwards if we have the side which started at Pompey being pushed by MCS, OConnor, Oduteko, Wynter, Cole, Cain, Biler and Tricker for the rest of the season, we will have a hugely competitive squad.

Dave Town Colours Thats The Point Exactly That’s What’s Makes Management So Tough.
You Hear Man Management Quoted A Lot.
I Suppose The One l Remember Is When Alex Ferguson Left Out Jim Leighton In The Cup Final Replay After The First Game Ended 3-3 And Apparently They Rarely Spoke Again!
It’s Horses For Courses Really And You Rightly Say James Taylor Get Can Get A Goal From Set Plays But If l Was A Forward Imran May Be A More Solid Opponent To Beat.
I Know We Always Try And Put Out As Competitive Team As Poss For The Cups And We Are Still Fighting On 4 Fronts!!!!
The League,London Senior Cup,Middlesex Senior Cup And FA Trophy!
Seeing All Your Photos Saturday Online Has Certainly Given Me A Lift In My Recovery!!!!

I totally disagree with the idea that if we had played 4-4-2 we would have got a result.
We played very well & created decent few chances. Our midfield showed incredible energy but without the extra man we would have been overan in the middle of the park. They kept us in the game & created the to opportunity to gamble with Wynter & Otedeko in the final 15 minutes, which so nearly paid off.

Re the handball. I think had the Ref been up with play to see it. A yellow card would have been most likely.

Cheers For That Alan Middlesex Wanderer.
I Respect Your Opinion As Always And Most Likely A Yellow If The Ref Would Have Seen It And Of Course A Very Dangerous Free Kick To Defend Being So Close To The Box!

Yes The Earl Of Smead It Should Have Been Red For The Portsmouth Goalie.
If For Example He Handled The Ball In Open Play Outside The Box lm Sure He Would Have Been Off And The Truth Is Portsmouth Were Struggling To Beat Us With 11 Players Let Alone 10 Which They Should Have Been Down Too!!!

It was a free kick and a yellow card for me.
But a definite red card for the linesman.

If I can see its a clear handball and I'm sitting in row X in the Milton End, how he can't see it from 10 yards away is beyond belief.
He might as well have not been there for all the use he was.

Mind you it's just the sort of incompetence we see virtually every week in the Southern League.

I’m With The Earl,Earlsmead Part Timer In That In The Modern Way The Game Is Refereed Its Very Strict On Keepers Handling In Any Way OutsideThe Box.
I Think If The Refs Attention Had Been Brought To That Incident By A Linesman That Would Have Been Sent Off!

A Very Big Call Got Wrong By The Linesman Thats Very Disappointing That He Didn’t Have The Confidence To Inform The Ref On Such A Big Call Earlsmead Part Timer.

Yes, can't work out why the Ref didn't see it either Terry. Its a straight forward "bread and butter" decision for a ref or linesman to make. Not difficult as a penalty decision can sometimes be if a player has been fouled or not.

Okay it probably wouldn't have made much difference to the outcome if it was a free kick and yellow ( as thought u it should be) but its the basics we're on about here and as Earl of Smead has said I thought all the officials had a bad day.
