Wolverhampton Wanderers v Sunderland AFC 3pm Match Thread

[McGregor]

Don’t grab shirt.

Happens all the time. Quite literally all the time and it never gets punished. Games fucked

 

[Mantobar]

Does the hair have to be real? Maybe we can just wear really long crazy wigs like capes?

 

[0321safc]

Honestly think he's just grabbing at his shirt and ends up looking like a hair pull. You can tell by his reaction it's not deliberate.

No way does a city, scum or Liverpool player get sent off in that situation.

 

[Kenna]

Even if its a shirt pull why does he need to reach for his neck to pull his shirt? Its a brain dead decision from Ballard given it was only a week or 2 ago with the last hair pull red card.

 

[PTR]

Daft long haired ****

We should send them all out in long wigs for the second half. Any shirt pull is a red now.

 

[TZMouk]

Hahaha his eyes are on the ball with his hair falling over his shirt as he backs into him. You've clearly never played the game to believe it's that cut and dry

Yep.

It's a ridiculous and ill thought out rule. Which is par for the course these days

I don't know how football survived for all these years without a hair pull rule.

 

[DaveH]

Commentator has no clue. Shocking that these people are paid to watch football

Mukiele to cb and Hume to RB

Seems to be what it is.

RLB can be random at times, but not that random!

100percent this ,

 

[jaxaxe]

Have all these cheating feckers got dodgy barnets ?

 

[Roker Mackem]

As if people were thinking the thoughts in Ballard's mind were to pull his hair man . Games gone. Simple as that. I hope all our lads turn up with long hair next season, it's an advantage this day and age

Premeditated before the match. Read it on here

 

[Blyth]

Let me get this straight. People are saying it’s ridiculous because pulling somebody’s shirt would have been ok and it’s the other players fault for having hair?

Both things can be true.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

How do you prove its deliberate.

Farce.

Get Brobbeys hair grown out

Get them all taking the field like an Iron Maiden Soccer Six team in August.

 

[HettonSAFC]

This. Hair should be tied up.

That I agree with….

 

[Zweiguys]

That red was a harsh call.
HTL

 

[nowtgoodeverhappens]

Always has to be a negative on here hahah

I’m borderline HC man!

 

[DrewC]

Worst decision I have ever seen in my entire life. He hasnt pull his hair has he, they were grappling to win a f***ing header

My wife even said that’s not pulling hair a rubbish call who doesn’t watch or know anything about Football

 

[FlashGordon]

Efan Ekoku

Got to assume it's his commentary debut. No way anyone has hired him before and given him a second pay cheque.

 

[Morse]

Whatever the case regarding Ballard's sending off, there needs to be a rule next season where long hair must be tied up.
It could pose a danger for the player, anyway.

 

[hank evans]

Give owa man, he grabbed it like he was doing their lass from behind

His lass is skin from skunk anansie

 

[Pudding]

Grabs his hair. Absolutely daft especially after recent games.
