Welling v Torquay Sat 6th Apr 3pm

[MellowYellow]

I fully expected to see Marshall being sent off for an intentional aggressive tackle but on a frame by frame analysis it looks accidental or clumsy at best. I am not saying he did not deserve to be sent off as the ref does not have the benefit of slow motion replays. But look closer and Marshall is first to the ball but the ball has bobbled over his outstretch leg (thats plastic pitches for you) before he brings the player down. If he is guilty of anything it is going in for a blazing tackle when he could have just stood his ground. All hindsight I guess as he is now portrayed as a pantomime villain.

Once Marshall gave abuse back to fans, that was always going to be hard to come back from. Although I understand it must be really difficult being vocally abused/slagged off and being unable to respond.

The best response is on the pitch, and despite his whole hearted approach, he's got himself sent off twice this season.

It was the same with Mcgavin, with Reid, Little and more. Fans need a scapegoat for their rage. Although I do feel if you wouldn't say it face to face to them in the street, maybe don't when you're in a crowd
