Oh, Cheltenham. :(

Third red card of the season too. Now 11 games without scoring a goal. 88 shots, 25 on target.

This is horrific.

Something seriously needs to change, absolute shambolic from those in power involved.

Automated system working well there. Took a while, but I think that might have been for a handball, not the offside

A replay? Who cares about complaints when officials make a mistake?

How did it happen, was it a foul or just an accident.

He was shaping to hit a cross across his body on the run so I presume he was twisting through his planted ankle and it just kind of gave way under him.

Nasty, nasty accident and at 35 years old, I doubt he'll play professionally again.

Terrible decision not to give Kovacic a 2nd yellow.

Arsenal should demand that the game be replayed if they don’t win. :|

Once again, the standard of refereeing this weekend has been an absolute joke. Some utterly awful calls in the West Ham game and now the Kovacic incident

Yes, I agree some of the vitriol towards the officials is a disgrace and yes, it’s an extremely tough job. But these are supposed to the “elite” officials and they get things wrong time and time again without enough of a consequence

Everything about football at the top level really has gone downhill

Arsenal v City not much better than Reading v Burton. Both teams happy with a draw.
