The ref completely bottled sending their number 6 off (Hogg I think?). He had been booked in the first half, bought down Williams as he was breaking through on the centre circle and then G mac down in the corner. Either challenge would have normally been a yellow.
Swift had a shocker and needs to do some serious gym work over the summer to get stronger as he's pushed off the ball far to easily.
As always at Wembley a disappointing atmosphere. It's hard to get it going when the usual singers are split and all over the place and day trippers not knowing the words.
I would agree with this.
As would I
I haven't watched the game again on TV (and don't intend to) but there is no doubt in my mind that the ref got that badly wrong
And who knows it may have made a difference (though we are historically poor against ten men so perhaps not)
Either way the red card should have been produced
