It did exist though and Gervinho was fouled and it should have been a penalty. Just went down far too easily, a bit like Lampard earlier today.
Could have easily been given as a penalty. So, the foul could have "existed". You still haven't addressed the fact that Barton incited him by picking him up aggressively and grabbing him, which should surely be a red card offence alone

How many 'coming togethers' do you see in football that result in red cards unless hands have been raised? Very, very few. That action deservedly earned him a yellow card. Like I've said, I don't always agree with the rules, but I'm only going off past precedent. Would I like to see people punished for going to ground too easily? Yes. But it doesn't happen so, like I've already said, Joey shouldn't be made a scapegoat in this situation just because of who he is.
