| Quote: stillinthepast "I am an owdun but maybe I can explain what may have caused the confusion (Conroy has partially already done this).
If the Ref pulls both cards out of his pocket at the same time and one is Red on both faces and the other Yellow on both faces and holds them together what do you get,confusion.
The Ref holds up the cards and he can see the Red side,MM facing the Ref can see the Yellow side. Just a theory,but as plausible as any other.'"
This could be the explanation but the red side was definitely facing McIlorum, hence why everyone in the South saw that it was red. If he was holding the yellow card behind the red one then it might explain why everyone who was behind the direction the ref was holding it (ie past the 30m line in the east) thought it was yellow.
I was in the south, the ref only showed one card, a red one. |

i think some refs do use the diffrent shaped cards, but don't they also keep the cards in diffrent pockets, when he binned Pryce i'm sure the card came from his front pocket, with MM the ref definitely went to his back pocket. |

| Quote: OJ "There was a lot of niggling all match, seemed like part of their game plan and it worked. They were at him all match I listened to GMR commentary and Phil Kinsella said Micky Mac's kick was a poor one - he failed to mention that someone had just taken his legs from under him. Was waiting for Gaz Hock to explode in the first half but fortunately he didn't. Apart from being in his face all the time I was pretty sure some of the Bradford players were concentrating on pulling his shorts down which was just nuts but I suppose if you want to niggle someone you'll try anything and others will try the same so the team need to learn to rise above it or it will cost us again.'"
So wigan were caught with there pants down  |

Bradford's pants? If you're going to try to make a joke at least get it to make sense - incorrect grammar can change the whole meaning to that intended.
HTH.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

The quality of the Bradford trolling has been very poor....

The Dire's is worse. You'd think that someone who has only just had a ban lifted would learn, wouldn't you? |

It would be interesting if anyone had a photo from behind the Ref,it may show something.
Even in the Radio Manchester commentary there was confusion,at first they thought it was yellow before changing their minds to red. |

After seeing the incident for the first time I'm pretty sure he'll be ok for the semi but will need to take the early guilty plea just to be on the safe side.
He was stupid though. He gave Elima exactly what he was looking for and you could tell by Elima's reaction that he was just looking to milk any sort of punch to get him sent off. I'd like to think Elima would be looking at some sort of action for throwing a few elbow's in McIlorums direction but it's highly doubtful.

I didn't see it. The lad behind me said it was red. Then McIlorum went and sat on the bench.

I've seen them bomb a quarter final, bottle a semi final, finish as league leaders, but I've still, never, seen the Wire win the league

"Games as big as a grand finals define individuals and clubs. Remember we are only renting these shirts, I had my time in Pat Richards shirt. Ellery and Faz had there time in Sean's, Hampo and Radders in Sam's. You have to make a mark in these shirts that's still there the day you hand it over to someone else. So be aware for 80 minutes you are not only playing but also writing history and creating a legacy. How many people get to actually write history, not many. A big stage demands big players, be inspired. You play for Wigan, now go do it. Good luck." - Martin Offiah, 2010.:27588.gif |

Its on super league TV video after the game, shows the incident. Just looks like he lost his cool. Yeah Elima was being a bit of a tool but you can't go thumping people for nout
