Sunderland fans slam 'horrible' decision as key man controversially shown red card

The midfielder was dismissed for a second booking against Blackpool, and fans feel the decision was a harsh one.

Here’s what they had to say on social media:

@conormac_10 said: “League one refs are awful. Yet again having every single decision go the other way”

@jacka17 commented: “Could see it coming a mile off”

@JonPeroni posted: “Send him back to Walsall for nowt”

@pingmang15 tweeted: “He was lucky earlier on in the second half, Parkie should have taken him off..”

@_dgallagher99 joked: “Getting Christmas off. Tactical”

@robo_mark added: “George Dobson, don’t play for us again”

@kevsafc22 said: “George Dobson is the worse midfielder I have ever seen at Sunderland. We were playing with 10men anyway so the red card won't make a difference.”

@eszombek posted: “That’s a horrible second yellow for Dobson. He beat the guy to the ball cleanly in a controlled tackle.”
