Bradford's keeper being sent off.
3-0 down in a cup final & you have just given the opposition a penalty to make it 4, use a bit of common sense & let him stay on the pitch.
This could probably go in the "what's wrong will football thread"

If it was the other way round people would be egging on the ref to send the Premier League player off.

Not if Bradford were 3-0 up, with a penalty to come. The rule is you are sent off for denying a goal scoring opportunity. Surely a penalty is a goal scoring opportunity? (although not for us  )

Blatter said a few years ago that they were going to get rid of the 'double whammy' rule...but surprise, surprise he changed his mind.
Personally, I have said for years, that once you get a penalty for a 'professional foul', you are swapping one goal scoring opportunity for another one, so why should a player get sent off?

Give the attacking team the choice, pen or red. That would be different (and a bit shit I suppose)

The Oscars. Why does an annual industry prize day get so much coverage? (I really wish someone would send it up properly. Do a spoof Aeronautical Industry Design award ceremony, or something...with weepy speeches and having everyone's colleagues described as 'the incomparable' this or the 'magnificent' that.)
The sense of self-importance that these people have gets right up my nose. You're storytellers, and you're good at it. But we'd all get on just fine if you weren't there one day. You'd think they were all out there saving lives 7 days a week.

Those people who stand around in the background on Top Gear. Are they, by any chance, extras from The Walking Dead who turn up in the wrong place every week?

I believe there's a massive waiting list to be in the audience for Top Gear.
