It was a bad tackle and deseved a red card. Martin had a few good games with us and the last time he played at Peterborough he was our man of the match in a 5-1 win. Unfortunately he is 24 years of age going on 12, but, I'd welcome him back at the valley anytime, Powell would sort him out
Never a sending off. He played the ball first, his feet weren't off the ground and another referee wouldn't even have given a foul. Jewell's obviously pissed off, but if Martin's immature for making a tackle then that might explain why Ipswich have lost 12 goals in 2 games.

How the hell can it be a bad tackle when he played the ball ????
Peter 90% possession? Sounds like that match when they put out about 8 central defenders against Man U, and got absolutely leathered. I believe one great Eddie Youds may have been one of the defenders!

Check the rules of the game?
thats a bit vague, would you care to enlighten me as to which rule(s) you are refering to ?
He is a frustrating player as for me he has a terrific amount of ability but a very poor football brain. I didn't see any signs of improvement in that respect when he was with us as I was hoping. He is a huge luxury to have in your side -IMO if he doesn't improve the basics of his game he is too much of a luxury.

If you take the ball and the man it can still be a foul. Martin dived into the challenge, it was dangerous and whether he touched the ball or not is irrelevant.

I know Ipswich were walloped 7-1 with 9 men, but still sounds ridiculously low to me.
Terrible decision, he got the ball and then his momentum carried him through to the player.
Should be over-turned but obviously won't be.

;o)
I agree, if people are getting sent off for those tackles every week then nobody will ever finish with 11 men.
The tackles by Bardsley and Cattermole in the Sunderland/Newcastle game were shocking, Martin's was a booking at best.
