' He deserved to be sent off says '

Russell Slade says goalkeeper David Marshall deserved to be sent off in Cardiff City's 2-1 defeat at Rotherham United.

"Should we have been down to 10 men? Yes. Should it have been a penalty? No," said the Cardiff manager.
"The first offence is a free-kick to ourselves. It's a free-kick on Marshall. How the referee can say that he has not seen that is beyond me.

"Unfortunately David has lost it, swung a foot and deserves to be sent off.
"I'm very frustrated because he makes it a very difficult afternoon for the other 10 boys."

He never deserved to be sent off in a million years. It was an appalling decision. And it shouldn't have been a penalty either. Complete joke if this is what the game has come to. Slade should be backing him!!
