Sounded a little harsh on the commentary Which game will he miss? On a positive note it sounded as though there were one or two touches of the old Luke today

I would like to see the club appeal against that red card. Unless Lukey was sent off for foul and abusive

The ref warned Luke a few times but the secaond booking was a farce.

Its harsh but he was warned minutes before for a foul on the other side of the pitch. Quinn was just about to take him off because he could see which way it was going.

When he made the tackle no one complained not even the defender

Joke of a second yellow - im guessing there was some foul and abusive language in there from luke - but what was more annoying was that a player of Scarbourough did a much worst tackle mins after the restart of rodgers going and then he let it go.

Never a sending off, it didnt even look as if he gave any foul and abusive to the ref, he left it to O'Connor

Why the f*** did Quinn delay in sending Cramb on. He should have been on the same time as Edwards. Quinn has to take some of the blame.

Spot on Grizzly. Luke is always walking a tightrope after a booking, and Cramb was all stripped off and ready to come on at one time.

I agree, it was clear Rodgers was going to get sent off, Cramb should have come on earlier!

I hope that the club do appeal. although it will be good to see how Cramb and Darby do as a partnership... if they are given a chance

There was only one tit involved in his sending off and that was Rodgers himself. Everone could see it coming. Obviously apart from the "man" himself. Scarboro were winding him up , he knew it and still bit. The blokes an idiot. Quinn should have subbed him and speaking to Sammy in the duncow after,he knows he should have.
The next offer we have for him,rip their hands off.

I agree, Rodgers attitude makes him a liability, clearly up for a sending off after he got booked. Quinn was too slow in getting him off, so Rodgers did it himself. We have seen the best of him, seems to have lost a yard of pace and now ends up fouling everyone to get the ball.Clearly a frustrated man but has to get a grip. He is not an asset on this display today.

I was right by the incident and Rogers had a quite word or two with the ref which didnt go down too well with the , he had to go, wound up to the max he was(rogers).

Diabolical decision by an official not competant enough to take charge of games at this level

Don't think you can appeal a sending-off for two yellows anyway.

I agree the ref was a t*sser, but Luke let himself down and like a lot of others think quinn let him down too. Should have gone off 5 minutes earlier. If he could channel his agression into pace and control he would be worth keeping, but on his present displays, hes just not Luke Rodgers.

He deserved his first yellow for shoving the Scarborough player, but the "foul" which earned him his second yellow wasn't even a foul in my opinion, completely innocuous and I can't remember him committing anything else approaching a bad foul in the game

Luke should know better. The first booking was avoidable. He'd done his job & won the freekick and when confronted by the Scarboro' player he should be wise enough to know not to react in the way he did. The only player in the wrong was the opponent who made a bee-line dash for Rogers. Rogers should have used this to his advantage by getting their player cautioned.

Quinn was going to sub Luke BUT - in case some missed it - Martin O'C took that jar to his back at exactly that point that the subs were going to be made.
He couldn't make a double substitution in that situation, without getting a fuller picture of the how serious the M O'C situation was, and it is unfair to blame Quinn for the sending off because of that.
What should be more concerning is that everyone could see Rodgers was going to get his marching orders at some point. Only one person can be held responsible for that.
And whilst the second yellow was dubious, the ref had lectured him clearly post first yellow on numerous occassions. As he raised his hands for the first card, it may have been a red then anyway.

What a load of cobblers. whats wrong people? Cant slate Darby now so move onto luke? He was penalised throughout the game reguardless of whether he was fouled or did the fouling. yes he was booked, but he had done well to ignore all the provication thrown at him. I'm afraid I didnt see the sending off coming, its not as if he was flying into tackles like he was at exeter or having on running feuds with the opposition. He was quite simply singled out by the ref, starting with being penailised for running with the ball at the Scarbrough defense. His sending off was never a sending off. And to be questioning whether he should be at the club is rediculess. he's proved himself time and again (at a better level),has delivered for the club when its mattered and whilst he's not scoring, he is still working his damn socks off. His discipline is far better than it was even earlier on in the season. The only thing Rodgers looked like doing after his booking was scoring a goal a goal. Hand your heads in shame. To quote loyalshrew "The ref let that him". hand your heads in shame Next you'll be slating Deano for the injuries at the club!

No doubt I'll be slated.
The ref was to blame, not luke.

It was a nothing challenge. The ref sent him off for a second yellow which was for persistant infringements. I was very dissapointed but unsurprised.
Barely a bad tackle in the whole game and the ref sent off two players - it shows what an incompetent tw@t he was.
That said JQ should have subbed Luke when it became clear what the end result of the ref's incompetency was going to be.

It was obvious that the Scarborough defenders were out to niggle Luke from the off. He was incredibly unlucky to recieve two yellows as he was kicked all over the shop today but played well considering the battering he got (this was confirmed by the standing ovation he got when leaving the pitch).
I was a little dissapointed he wasn't subbed earlier.
The ref should have cut out the amount of abuse Rodgers was taking from the Scarborough defenders

the first yellow was petulant and pointless the second yellow was a complete farce but he had been warned Quinn should have protected him and i don't think the second yellow was actually a booking, but i imagine the ref has booked himf or "consistent foul play" or somethinglike that, as Luke did give away a lot of free kicks Alan Smith scored a nice goal at Old Trafford today. He's a similar type of player. I too would now like to see Cramb and Darby up front with Sammy and Lowe supporting from the flanks 2 Div 2 strikers up front, both can play a decent pass and i reckon they would do well

First booking fine. But I will now expect every player who ever pushes a player lightly in the chest after being brought down and then having someone run up to them screaming in their face to also be booked.
2nd booking - What on earth? A bit of backing in by Rodgers and a free kick.
Am I wrong in thinking Luke was involved in the first goal. Who won the free kick for the second? We played to Luke and Darby's strengths in the second half today and it worked. Keep them together until Luke's suspension and then bring Cramb back.

persistant fouling???
If Luke was booked again for persistant fouling, then it's no-ones fault but the ref, he got pennalised for everything whether it should be a free kick or not,and not once did he chace the ref, shout at the ref have a tantrum (luke style that is). Totally unjustified.
