Brilliant, never a sending off, which I & others rightly pointed out, another very poor decision from the ref on the night, never a penalty either
We could have lost that game, similar to the Preston debacle a few years back when the ref wrongly sent off Ayala

Huge relief, that midfield would have looked very weak without Howson and Morsy for saturday

Sounds like Birmingham are going to be without George Friend

 

[Trug]

Phew! That must be the first appeal we have won

 

[Redwurzel]

We seem to win more appeals than lose them certainly since the beginning of 2018.

In Morsy I think we could have a little gem - a bit like Mustoe it may take a time for people to notice, because he does the stopping.

I remember we somehow won an appeal for Adama Traore when he punched a Sunderland player? Or did he nut him, I can't remember..

True, great result, things are looking up for us

He was having a nice tidy game on Wednesday night, moping up, small passes keeping the ball moving, good result

Common sense has prevailed. Just so glad it didn't cost us on Wednesday.

Great news that. I've been impressed with Morsy, he keeps everything ticking along nicely in there, and is an absolute menace to the opposition.

He reminds me more of grant than mustoe

Whichever, both excellent players for us, IMHO Robbie pips it but Grant is the penalty king though

Bet Neil Warnock uses his press conference before the game to say, great news for morsy, and stating cheekily; being sent off early means he got a good rest and should be raring to go vs Birmingham!

He does all the little things that no one speaks about. He does the stuff that doesn’t get recorded by GPS or the OPTA stats.
(reminds me of a humble Roy Keane.. if there ever was such a thing)

Really not surprised we won the appeal I watched it a few times in slow motion and really couldn't see anything wrong...strange decision in the first place !

I think it has to be a peno really. Without it hitting Morsy's arm they score. (I know it wasn't intentional, but I think they have to be awarded the pen).

 

[Foggysfplandiet3]

Should think so too. It was clearly ball to arm and Morsy had his back to it.

Referee Andy Davies: Myope of the year.

 

[Billy69_uk]

Had the resulting penalty been scored and Boro drew or lost, there is no way the EFL would have overturned this red card.

It would be admitting their ref was wrong or incompetent and that the poor decision actually cost someone points.

A bit shoddy all round if you ask me.

 

[Maccarone]

Good decision, correct decision, now then Sam cap it off with a goal tomorrow please.
C'mon Boro
