I do think he would have due to the big height difference to collin. The ref has most definitely cost us 3 points.
Her incompetence made us play 2\3rds of the game with 10 men.

@Medway Blue I've just re watched the TV highlights. The ref (gender neutral) clearly shows Maher only a Red Card. Not a yellow and then a Red. If I remember the Laws correctly that means the ref deemed Maher's 'offence' to be worthy of a straight red and can therefore be appealed?
Having a real dose of de ja vu from Wrexham a couple of seasons ago.

I also definitely only saw a red brandished. If raising your arms as you appeal is a straight red id be shocked.
Just wondering if having two sent off in error (if that's the case) plus failure to book their players for crowding her could warrant a rematch. Seems to me that any of those players surrounding the ref could easily be one of the players that went on to get a yellow, which would have been a second one. Seems too unusual for there to be no consequence now it's all in the open.

What are managers supposed to do?

Honestly a bit surprised - getting a successful appeal isn't easy and the red card didn't seem like a terrible call at all. Definitely not enough to overturn on its own.
Have to assume it's because of something like getting the yellow out first. And if that was the case then we'll likely never be told the reason, so we'll probably be left guessing!

I noted the failure to book any players for intimidation tactics, again poor and indicative of a team of officials who can't stand up for themselves.

it was just wishful thinking, stuff like that aggregates me. Always feels like the referee assessor report is secretive and is done behind closed doors and as untransparant as they can make it. I think there should be a 360 degree report after each game so managers and officials and assessors all get input to each other's feedback and available upon request for a small fee that could fund straitjackets for managers to restrain their arms!

The league should make it public that the referee got it wrong.
I think they have, by rescinding the card which is now in the public domain?

When I became aware from the excellent report given on the Zone by Mick that we had a female referee I was really happy to learn she was very experienced.However was surprised as to the way she officiated.Yes she made a mistake in the sending off of the goalkeeper but some of the decisions she made were questionable.Will she get reprimanded unfortunately we will never know.

The goalkeeper outside the area is treated the same as any outfield player. So there you have it as far as that potential misconception is concerned.
Had she played advantage then a yellow card is the only available sanction even if it was otherwise a sending off offence…which it wasn’t as there are a number of reasons in the rules why it would be a yellow. The easiest way of looking at it is if that was Crowther, not the keeper, charging the ball down would they have been sent off? Of course not. No wonder it was overturned. The fact she initially made the right decision and then was pressured into changing her mind will only have compounded the error.
I wish I didn’t have finally educate myself on goalkeepers and the handball laws in these circumstances…

I am sorry but a male ref would have had no doubt put both the Yeovil players and the ridiculous 4th official who thought he was running the show in their place.
She totally lost control of everyone around her, basically losing her bottle when it needed a strong character to get hold of the game by the scruff of the neck and the opposition pretty much took advantage of the that, getting our keeper sent off and ultimately losing the game.

Plenty of male refs we have had have been equally incapable of applying the laws of the game effectively and have been influenced by the opposition in recent years.

Yep, fair play (and to those above, too). I hadn't noticed she'd shown a straight red. I just assumed it was a 2nd yellow since I knew he was already on one.

Three and a half years and counting, we've been down in this division, and I am genuinely yet to see ANY referee at this level display a strong character and do any of those things.
The simple fact is that regardless of gender, the standard of officiating at this level is appalling, and barely better than county level.
This isn't the Nationwide Conference of 2002/03 anymore, where the gap to the EFL was huge and 90% of the division's clubs were semi-pro. The standard of football and the amount of money riding on success have both improved and increased beyond recognition, but the standard of officiating has been left behind and hasn't matched the rate of improvement everywhere else.
