It's foul play.

He's stupid.

Now out for three games so all is good.

Keano’s incredibly oversized stretch Armstrong arms getting him in all sorts of trouble again…..No way a red for me. It was an instinctive caress rather than a hard tug.

I think even if you could justify it being a red, there's no way any sane person could think a 3 match ban is a fair punishment for what he did.

I would add, even if it's a red, in no world should that action/level of physicality result in a 3 game ban. You'd have to have absolutely yanked him back actually violently for that to be the case.

I get that people have their feelings about Keane and maybe Moyes too for playing JOB out wide, but the punishment does not fit with what happened there.

I'm really not a Keane fan but that was absolute bullshit, another one off, one of a kind decision only Everton will be punished for.

This will be rescinded or downgraded to a one match ban.

Or finding the top corner with a reaction and a finish so sharp?

It's honestly astonishing decision.

Letter of the law, it’s probably correct for hair pulling.

Saying that, it feels like he’s gotten unlucky the attacker’s hair was so long. Shorter hair and he grabs his shirt as intended since it really didn’t appear premeditated.

One of those where the hair should probably be considered part of the shirt if it’s past a certain length.

Just not having that as a red card at all.

Very clearly jumped with his hand out on the defenders back and went to grab his shirt.

Its insane that it's a red when Hwang had just scrapped his cleats down Armstrong's calf without so much as a look from VAR.

We need to come out here these decisions going against us are brutal and we need to be more vocal.

People saying ‘Everton that’ is a stupid mentality are swimming against the tide here. Too much of this shit happens to us.

Feels like I'm experiencing mass psychosis

He's grabbed his hair and pulled him down with it?

He did.

Is that violent conduct though?

What’s was violent about it?
