For Coppinger. Violent conduct

Who comes in? Same formation. 3 massive games as well!

Why the hell when you have just got an 89th min penalty do you get yourself sent off. Can somebody tell me. If it was retaliation at that late stage he should lose his wages. what in heaven's name happened.

[MrFrost]

Stupid.  We will miss him badly over the next three games.  Christmas will make us or break us. 

[bpoolrover]

If you make a
Mistake at work Bally do you lose your wages?

[RoversAlias]

Not what you'd expect from Coppinger, he's going to be a big miss for the next few games now. Really shot ourselves in the foot here.

[Colemans Left Hook]

Christmas will make us or break us  !!!!    BEHAVE !!!

Will be appealed, surely. Keeper was taunting our player for missing the penalty, Coppinger went to confront the keeper. His conduct  was not violent.

[Copps is Magic]

What exactly did Coppinger do? No one seems to have said.

[karldew]

I'm sure it was one of their players who was in Mandevilles face after he missed not the keeper. Copps went over to stick up for him (no arms raised) and the trouble ended up in the goal mouth where a few players were arguing.

Still a mystery to why it was a red but to me their penalty was the same, striker had a bad touch and ran into our defender who was stood still!?. Have to see highlights but looked a shocking decision from where I was sitting.

Tell us more Nigel. Were you there??

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Reports fro fans there and commentators say it wasn't violent conduct. Copps just intervening to stop their player gloating at Manderville.

Even if Copps pushed him away, the ref should have seen what was happening. At best a booking for both players.

Yet again, one of the many injustices in football when the perpetrator escapes without punishment!

[Padge_DRFC]

Can it be appealed if he hasn't done anything wrong?

[The Red Baron]

If we've got some decent video footage of the incident we may be able to appeal.

[NigelJ]

Will be appealed, surely. Keeper was taunting our player for missing the penalty, Coppinger went to confront the keeper. His conduct  was not violent.

Yes,I was there. Keeper should have been booked at least for unsporting conduct. Coppinger did not hit the keeper, he only confronted him. Referee got it totally wrong.

[The Red Baron]

Fergie's just told Liam Hoden he's considering an appeal.

[DonnyBazR0ver]

I'm sure DF will stick up for Copps exemplary record if an injustice has been done.

[mrfrostsdad]

In which case we don't have a problem then.
It can be appealed and overturned

Either way, 2-0 down and on 90 mins the game is over, why get involved and get a straight red? Silly and unprofessional of coppinger

[Copps is Magic]

'confronting' someone is hardly a red card offense. He must have done something extra. No one seems to know or have seen what.

[MrFrost]

Some reports suggest he said something to the ref afterwards

Because the c-u-next-Tuesday of a goalkeeper (who lest we forget once killed two kids while driving drunk) had a go at a team mate. And a young team mate at that.

It's what teams do. If he's not done anything violent no way should he have been sent off.

[Padge_DRFC]

Free press reporting it as grabbing their keeper by the throat

[Copps is Magic]

Copps did the right thing then. Something must have really irked him, hardly got that kind of temperament has he copps?

Sharing a playing field with that waste of oxygen  would be enough. 

[Copps is Magic]

They'll be a welcoming party at the keepmoat for this Kitson

The McCormick incident was disgraceful and wholly unneccessary. 2-0 up and goading a 19yo who has missed a penalty. Very classy

[rich1471]

As the captain copps did the right thing by protecting the young players it was never violent conduct

[glosterred]

Got a feeling that McCormack will be in the receiving end of a bit more abuse when he next plays at the KMS

COYR

[MrFrost]

Their supporters love him.  Scum

He didnt grab him by anything. All handbags!

[DonnyBazR0ver]

Just seen the highlights and Copps had his hands on him and then someone comes into the back of him and a melee ensued which made it worse.

For me it's not violent conduct and the ref got in wrong. Depends what the disciplinary panel make of it.
