    Powell said in the post-match interview that he had no complaints. I've watched the video and Pritchard was hot-headed, hard and late.

    Thought it harsh at the time but after seeing on TV I thought the ref made the call he had to. Is it a one or three game ban ?

    Three - violent conduct.

    I think it comes under serious foul play, have a look at 'Law 12'. Same length of ban though.

    Tough call in real time Pritch came in very determined from the side at speed and if you are a bit late, it looks very bad and D'Urso was predictable on this occasion with the outcome. There but for the grace of god went many who would have just received a ticking off in the old days :-)

    Agree with AFKA and Pig. Never a red. It was lates, that's all. Yellow card.

    He also said he hadn't seen it again. More likely he's sick of the touchline bans and knows complaining won't do him any good

    Lates=Red which you should know with a name like Red Robin! Did you pick up the name from Sunday league footy m8?

    If lates = red im surprised their arent reds in every game.

    Knew he was going to send pritch off as soon as the crowd and players reacted.

    D'urso couldn't wait to do it. It was all about him on Saturday.

    I wasn't at the game and only saw it on the poor quality highlights programme. To me, it looked more like Fraser ran into him.

    Was more or less in front of us. No more than a Yellow. D'Urso loves it.

    From the highlights, it looked as if the Bournemouth players were sympathising with him.

    Harsh but expected. As somebody commented in the pub beforehand when we found out D'Urso was ref - 'I wonder how many players will still be on the pitch at FT'

    Yellow all day long. Absolutely no malice in it, just a desperate tackle chasing the game. If the referee can't put that into context then he shouldn't be there. As above, Powell's comments are likely to be as (a) we won't appeal anyway as we can't afford to and it never does us any good and (b) he's already been in enough trouble for talking about referees anyway.

    Think the afcb players reaction made the ref's mind up.

    50/50 ball they both went for. Pritchard was late and because the he doesn't roll around on the floor D'Urso (awful all game) instantly sends him off without even thinking about it.

    thought it was harsh but in today's game it was a red. This and the fact that all the players swarmed around the ref and the crown reaction and also taking in that the ref was D'worso the outcome was always red.

    They were tapping Pritchard on the head as if to say 'unlucky mate'!?

    We thought at the time it was a 50/50 ball too.

    But knew that D'worso ( love that, cafc999! ) couldn't wait to wave the red.

    If we see this so called ref again this season, we may as well surrender the points at the off.

    Never a red, late and clumsy but not malicious. A yellow card but D'Urso is a c***!

    I thought it was going to be a red as soon as he went for the tackle...I've not seen a replay to see if it was as bad as I thought at the time but quite often what see and make instant judgments on turn out to be not so clear cut

    We know Pritch so we know it wasn't malicious, but at the game in real time it looked clumsy, wreckless and he didn't get anywhere near the ball.
    Their man ended in a heap and their players jumped up and down.
    I knew it would be red.
    Never mind that D'Urso is a chunt, I think 9 out of 10 refs would have pulled out a red in front of the home crowd.
    Just my opinion

    Watching the highlights video, both players running at full speed had to make up 10 yards of space to get to the ball.

    Both were fully committed.

    Maybe if Pritch had ended up in a heap and their man stayed on his feet we would have got a different outcome.
    In real time it was natural for the ref to assume Pritch was the aggressor IMO, Oggy

    I always have and always will think D'urso is an incompetent clown, but watching it back I can see in this one instance why he reached the conclusion he did - albeit incorrectly. The inconsistency and double standards regarding other challenges I have no time for mind you!
