Pearson - Absolute liability

Pearson - Absolute liability

How many games is he banned for? Is it 3 as it's his 3rd red of the season and then potentially another 3 if he picks up his 15th yellow (as I think he's on his 14th now)?
 
I can’t stop now . The amount of games me and my pals have talked at half time saying it will only take one more bad tackle for him to get sent off and fuck the game up for us . And how many times has his game had to change because of it ? . Don’t mind a big hard biting tackle but just to put a hip in to off balance a player isn’t a yellow but because it is Pearson the ref thinks it’s worth a yellow but if you are a Leeds player you have to two foot one of ours to get a booking . By the way I am an ex lfa ref so I do know what I’m talking about .
 
There is no defence for him. A complete idiot. So angry. I hope the club discipline him and he should not get near the squad again this season

Pretty sure it's only a one match ban for being sent off for being last man. He has more pace than Bamford, just had to wait another 5 yards until he had outrun Bamford, stupid tackle

I'd get rid if the offers good enough. Give Ledson the rest of the season.

It is only a 1 match ban for his red card tonight but it may well be 3 games because it's his third. Got a 4 game ban after the violent conduct tackle red card at Hillsborough which was his second. Not certain though.
 
Best player in the club, but what a waster- can't defend him any more.
Ledson has the rest of this season to master the role.
Sad.
 
A straight red is

Completely agree. Barely anything in it. A straight red is what the ref gave. Outrageous.
Couldn't wait to book Pearson early doors.
 
Whether you like him or hate him .... one thing that's been plainly obvious for a while now is that he's a marked man. Refs and opposition teams single him out ... you can either say he's a muppet for not figuring this out himself or you can blame the club for not changing his on field attitude ...... think we may be at the tipping point with him I'd say its up to him where we go from here.

Absolutely agree. The yellow was ridiculous ( and made even more ridiculous in relation to the referee’s failure to book Leeds players for worse) and the red was a player trying to make an honest challenge to stop a goal (I’m not sure why the free kick was played sideways by Johnson but it was the pass by Davies that caused the issue).

I think tonight’s cards are a totally different issue to almost all his previous cards.

His yellow tonight was for a tackle that was later than Northern rail.

That said their players (mainly alioski and one other should have had a couple of cards tonight before they had their first cards.
 
Won’t defend him anymore. If the yellow was soft, and I think it was, then it comes down to reputation. And he has gained that by being a fucking reckless bastard to this point. And he doesn’t exactly hide from the ref, straight after half time he was in the refs face before they even kicked off...

We could have at least come out of that with a draw, and he lost us that point.

I agree with what someone said further up the thread, the other players must be getting fucking sick of it.

He can either shut up or fuck off.
