TOPIC: Jabo retrospective ban?

Anyone else concerned that the FA may review the footage and present Jabo with a 3 game retrospective ban?

It's pretty clear cut on the highlights.

He cannot be subject to a retrospective ban as he was given a yellow. The ref has deemed his actions worthy of just a yellow so no ban can be handed out. We've been lucky mind it's a stone wall red, he clotheslined the goalie! Haha

From the highlights i've seen, no. Jabo just pulled the keeper away (enthusiastically granted). The keeper however did raise his hands.

And no regarding the rule change, if the Ref gave a sanction (yellow/red) then it can't be touched retrospectively. If he'd just 'had a word' or didn't see it, then it could.

Thank f*** for that!!

If there is a ban then surely Yeovil will have 1 for the melee that resulted in the jabo incident

Radio Somerset was convinced he should have been sent off in extra time as well

That´s just the kind of ultra partisan bullshit that I've come to expect from Radio Somerset

Yeovil defender should face retrospective ban for the hand in the face of Jabo in first ten minutes and they should have had many more yellows if Phillips is to be believed. Mind you its hard to tell because he doesn't commentate on the match only gives updates about games that no one cares about.

Haven't seen the highlights or any replays so don't know what they show but the incident where Jabo and the keeper get upclose and personal doesn't start there. After our goal Ellis grabs the ball with the intention of running to the middle to start the game quickly, he is pushed and held down by their keeper in an attempt to waste some time I think. Quite a few Yeovil players are piled in on Ellis with Jabo not involved, only when he sees our man on the floor does he come into the picture.

Thankfully Jabo and their keeper got yellows so it's case closed but if anything retrospective was on the cards the incident and players involved would include a lot more than those two.

Fine for clubs failing to control players?

yea a couple of grand fine maybe...

All a bit stupid they should learn to keep their heads in situations like that.

It did flare up very quickly. I very much doubt that the referee had much clue what was happening as he couldn't understand the difference between a foul and a fair tackle. Jabo even had a free kick awarded against him for slipping on the frosty pitch during a challenge. In a tense game between two equally-matched and very well-drilled teams there were bound to be incidents with so much at stake.

It was funny though seeing Degsy leading Jabo away to stop him making things worse for himself. It was like a kid escorting his Dad away in mid argument with his mum.

From the highlights it looks like in the scramble just prior to Sweeney scoring their defender challenges/climbs on top of Ellis then sits across him on the floor stopping him from getting up. When Sweeney scores the defender moves and Ellis then seems to celebrate right in his face... the camera then pans left.

Hard too at times in a team sport you react to situations emotions run high and if you see a team mate being man handled you react which in turn makes others react

In my eyes the yellow cards were correct,dont want to see players sent off for handbags

What I don't like is sneaky stamps and elbows ect...or players rolling about like pussies after getting shoved in chest ect..

That was a good old fashioned fracas nobody hurt in a big game for both teams it shows they cared

Yeah, think it was their 24, Connor Roberts holding Ellis down.

According to the commentary, I think he was the lad who had the stamp earlier in the game too.

Maybe he was thinking back to around 1.40 here

Odds on him being sent off in the league game down there?

If there was a player this season, that has totally got me wound up, it was Connor Roberts.

Home game in the league, he was leaving his foot in, getting in the refs face, and the biggest thing, diving and crying like a baby when he clearly hadn't been touched.

Judging by reports last night, he was up to it all again last night.

If anyone deserves a retrospective ban for last night it should be one Francois Zoko. That penalty was criminal.

I've watched the highlights now and have to say they are very, very one sided. After we score the camera follows Sweeney away from the goal mouth, so totally misses several Yeovil players including the keeper piling in on Ellis who is prone on the floor. A case of a lot of righteous indignation by the commentators but only half the facts.

I was on opposite stand to main Carlisle support. We clearly saw the keeper kick Ellis when he was on the floor. That's the point at which it got nasty and Jabo piled in.

I Hope Connor Roberts gets the Nicky Bailey treatment when they come up here.
