How on Earth is the second yellow not a booking? Udogie skipped past him and was driving toward the box, and Jota hauled him down from behind to stop a transitional attack.

Even the Liverpool fans, with their astonishing victim complex, weren't complaining about the second yellow.

This just reeks of a small number of people having been influenced by the controversy surrounding the match and allowing it to cloud their judgment.

If I’ve understood that correctly the way that panel is made up and the vote being 3vs2 is essentially no different from Sky Sports News having a chat with Dermot Gallagher, Stephen Warnock and Sue Smith where the 2 ex-players disagree with the decision and the former ref explains why they’re wrong to disagree. In that scenario any vote would come out 2vs1 but the 2 would be talking uninformed bollocks.

Their incessant screeching has got them something at least, which is the reason for it all.

Weird, if they were going to pick one of them as "not worthy of a yellow" I'd be sure it'd be the first.

It would be lovely if this crap just engrossed them now and almost stifles them as a team. They will be super sensitive now and the entitlement will be sky high thinking that any foul should go their way. Hope it all backfires on them.

The idea that the 2ND Jota yellow should be over turned - stinks more of corruption than anything liverpool fans have been moaning about the last few days.

That can ONLY be explained by officials being influenced by Liverpool's hysterical reaction and attempts to influence decision makers

It's a yellow card all day long. A tackle from behind, there's nothing to discuss.

Oh....and purely in the interests of fairness and transparency, no other motivation, I do hope the league is going to publish the names of those who voted for the card to be rescinded

Yellow cards can’t be appealed, or overturned...that’s why they could only appeal the straight red for Jones.

You can bet your bollocks they would’ve appealed it if they could.

As far as voting for the 2nd yellow card is concerned, only 1 person voting was a qualified referee. So the vote holds about the same weight as asking 5 randoms in the pub what they thought.

In the Telegraph's report on last night's Europa League match, there's a palpable sense of disappointment that LFC have finally decided it's time to move on... (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/footbal...nion-saint-gilloise-europa-league-live-score/ .)

"Given the events of the past six days, on the approach to Anfield one might have imagined seeing foot soldiers pulling up the drawbridge and those in charge of heavy artillery readying themselves for a terrifying counter offensive against an opponent destined for a Liverpool backlash.

Instead, there was little evidence of a siege mentality given Liverpool’s sense of grievance since Saturday. Indeed, Klopp seemed to extinguish earlier inflammatory comments about replaying the Premier League fixture with Tottenham Hotspur. There was no sense of this being a club under siege.

“If I made the impression that I was still in (Saturday’s) game, we are not,” said Klopp.

“We are over it. We are not children. That is it. "
