He said it was a yellow yard. "Andre mariner has got that right. It's reckless from Young and it warranted a yellow card" Are you arguing with literally everyone and everything these days? |

'he said it deserved only a yellow' Or both? |

He got it right, it was no 50-50. Young was showing his studs. The wider context of his description of events could arguably be characterised as stopping just short of saying he deserved a red. Certainly nothing indicated, as you would have it, that said commentator stated "it only deserved a yellow". Your words. |

A red card is a different decision with a different outcome. They, therefore, can't both be 'right' (assuming 'right in an opinion' in this case) If you could be booked AND sent off via the same incident, there would be room for ambiguity and interpretation. But you can't. Let's say, you could be slapped for posting drivel on the forum, but you could also be kicked, spat on or called a sex offender. If these different forms of abuse had no particular perceived level of punishment, you could say 'cream deserved to be kicked' you could also suggest that I also think that Cream is a sex offender, because there's nothing to suggest you couldn't be both, in my mind. However, if I we were to assign a level of punishment associated with each word and I were only allowed to pick one as an insult based on the severity of how bad your post is, then it create very clear parameters. Somebody could agree or disagree with that accordingly. Any correct decision would render the other options wrong. Red is a higher offence than yellow. To suggest a higher offence was needed the commentator would need to say I deserved 'at least a yellow'. He didn't. He said that is was a yellow card (offered no qualifier, so no further interpretation is necessary) and, more importantly, agreed with the referees decision of yellow. Morning! Quote:

Exactly. It's just a shame they aren't relevant in this context. Didn't read? Wow. Such a quick concession. Probably shouldn't be surprised with my airtight logic. Apology accepted Quote:
Same. Enjoyed them going straight in there with old school draws. The less from the likes of Trevor Sinclair, the better imo. |
