Dundee game after winter break. Takes 2 weeks to come into play for 6 yellows

He picks up a few bookings so he was always going to get suspended sooner or later. Maybe a blessing in disguise that it's coming against the club bottom of the SPL? (Not that we can take anything for granted obviously, even against Dundee, but if he has to miss a game there could be worse outcomes than this one.)

Looked like a two footed tackle going by this photo http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scot...a-penalty.html
Sorry about it being in the sun

Today's sports headline in the Scotsman:-
"Fenlon considers being a 'moaner' as Cairney is booked for simulation"
Pat's obviously made a veiled reference to Kenny Shiels ridiculous outburst when he accused Cairney of diving in the first game at ER.

I mentioned this on the match thread. It's not just the booking or the suspension that's the worst thing, but how he will be treated when a similar incident happens in the future.

I thought it was a penalty and I have no doubt what happened in September has swayed the referees decision.
It is made even more disappointing by the fact he now has a suspension to serve.

Having seen the replay about two or three times now, it's absolutely ludicrous to think that he has taken a dive in that incident. There was clearly a foul committed but even if the referee didn't think it was enough for a penalty, it certainly should not have resulted in a booking for Cairney.
There should be an appeals process in place for bookings where a player has effectively been accused of cheating.

It was a penalty but he goes down too easily looking for fouls in most games-the ref against Motherwell told him to get up twice.He's strongly built and plays near to the ground and can go past on either side-he should play to these strengths and stay on his feet.He should also score more goals-his poor control(unusually for him)led to him missing a sitter on Sunday.He got a foul for nothing on the half way line against Motherwell-if he had just gone past the guy instead of deliberately running into him he'd have been on his way to the bye line.

At one point I worried that he was going to miss either the smeltic or yams match.

As I said earlier, if he didn't think it was worthy of a penalty then I could almost have lived with that but how he thought that Cairney had taken a dive is really beyond me.

He has the booking, it was a penalty and he has a ban coming up. Just glad it's the Dundee game and we can move on, it was a matter of time before the ban came.
As others have said, he is above that kind of "soft stuff"

If Cairney had'nt taken off when the tackle came in, straight leg in with studs showing, he might well have been looking at a broken ankle.( or end up dead if you play for Man. Utd. )
Was Cairney just meant to keep his foot on the deck and take the hit. It was'nt as if the player did a quadruple roll over in fained agony.

He also got a stupid booking against Dundee Utd for time wasting at a corner late in the game

Billy not exactly sure what you are getting at. The main fact is that he didn't deserve that booking against United. Or Killie. Don't know his other 4 yellow cards. But be interesting to see what they were
