Callum, London: You don’t accidently pull hair. Can see why people would say ‘soft’ but it’s the rules and it’s clear as day. Red.
Bill, Manchester: I am a staunch Man Utd fan. You know we’re without Maguire and wasn’t someone sent off recently for pulling hair? If you’re close enough to pull hair, pull his shirt. Stupidity and deserves red all day long, especially when you’re 2-0 down.
Will, Rugby: Since when was it an automatic red for hair pulling? A foul OK, but a straight red? No!! You can tug a player’s shirt but no red! I mean, what’s next? Harsh language? This is a competitive sport.
Paul, Newmarket: Absolute joke of a red card. Seen harder ones not given in the women’s game. (McCabe comes to mind here.) Barely took his bobble out. DCL incidentally should have been booked for diving in the box. Tierney is having an awful game. No consistency!
Chris, Preston: There should also be zero tolerance for pulling someone back by the shirt or the arm but there isn’t and they are far more likely to cause injury.
Chris, Nottingham: I genuinely don’t think I have seen a red card as daft as that. Utterly ludicrous!
