I don't often criticise players nowadays, seriously I don't, but I don't really care what incensed Cunningham and obviously something did, but to kick out and then punch meant HE LET HIS TEAM DOWN and consigned them to an afternoon of turmoil.
The game was thrown away at that point.
STUPID!

was a moment of madness

Yes Cunningham may have let the team down but he was getting punched in the tackle he stood up for his self

How old are you?
I'm sure the Eagles player that suckered him will have been saying just the same has he trudged off.
Anyone with any nous would have thought I'll sort you out shoitehawk next tackle.

Im 17!! And I am 100% sure if you were in that situation you would have retaliated!

The referee ......
The ball gets passed to Cooke goes between his legs he touches it and it goes backwards ...knock on!

Just prior to Yere's try, the ball gets passed along the Sheffield line and is dropped ...no knock on.

OK ref, you lime green lunatic ... Bet Fred was it?
How much did you draw?

How could I tell .... this is not Silver Street on Saturday night you know!

Possibly so, but Cookie said post match that hes known Cunningham for years, and never known him do anything in this sort of way, so whatever Knowles did in the tackle (which I've been told was a palm thrust to the nose, and the video shows some sort of punch being thrown), must have definitely annoyed Cunningham.

The red card was the correct decision. I think though that little episode may have started about 2 or 3 minutes earlier in the middle of the pitch about 20 metres out from our line. Knowles was involved but im not sure who from the Dons was. When you go in like Cunningham did though you leave the ref with no choice.

We are doing in the championship was Cas are doing In SL , running out of gas at the end of the season. If anyone was to go back through the posts though from the beginning of the season you will see that I said id be happy with 9th or maybe 8th to sneak into the playoffs. For us to finish 4th was a great achievement. It was much more important to finish higher in the league than have a run in the playoffs.It sets us up for next year when competition will be even tougher.

A big well done to all concerned at the club this season for some great times and great results.See you all next year and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

To be honest in my opinion I dont think Cunningham was sent off for punching or retaliation it was the use of the knee

It doesn't really matter what part of his body he used, he retaliated, sorry but he DID and rightly walked for it.

I am agreeing with everybody as he should have walked! It was a moment of madness and if we sign him next year he will be a bigger and better player from this experience

a very tired end to a great season, we were knackered from the start with our list of injuries but the officials didnt have a clue from start to finish, probably following the aston the poison dwarfs game plan

Adds some spice to next years encounter with the 'big' City team I suppose.
