2 off Morelos being blamed again. Even the Tim is saying so.

I don't think Morelos's was a red - he got tangled but he wasn't trying to stamp on McKenna - McKenna, on the other hand, definitely lashes out with a boot.

Think that means Morelos misses the Killie Cup game as it will be violent conduct.

 

Time for Defoe - just as well we brought in an additional striker in the window.

Alfie waving his studs around McKenna's baws is risking a red, even if he might have got away with a yellow. Not the smartest.

Needlessly involved again though. We're trying to win a big game and he's doing that.

 

Because of his antics he missed Aberdeen semi and now he'll miss big game against Killie.

 

It's just so needless, just play the game.

In the age of slow motion it can be all too easy to look at everything as being avoidable.  You often see players tangled and struggling to untangle themselves.  There appears to be no intent by Morelos IMO.  That said, easy enough to see why the officials would see it as a red card.  Even though I don't think it was

lost some shape with the red.

Needlessly involved ?  McKenna is dragging him to the ground and his momentum brings them together.

Gunslinger is going to be pissed that Candeais has been substituted   That said, he has done very little this evening.

Yeah, needlessly involved.  He's been leaving legs, arms, and elbows in all night.

 

All for putting yourself about. But he's had 3 red cards against them this season.  It's unacceptable.
