Interesting one here. Wednesday keeper completely takes out the Charlton striker, the referee clearly initially missed it as you see him running off and playing on, can only assume he got some help over comms. Can't be any doubt at the red card, but what I think is interesting is they sanctioned it as DOGSO as Horvarth has only received a one game suspension. My view is this was very clearly SFP. Thoughts?

The was mentioned on ref watch (I think) they mentioned it was the AR who had got involved, as referee initially didn’t believe it to be a foul/handball.
SFP for me
SFP for me
Possibly, probably not that relevant though as smashing the opponent in the head should always trump DOGSO.
I believe it was the referee's first ever Championship game, so he really does owe his AR a huge favour for getting him out of that mess.
Must have, guessing while down receiving treatment, as the goalkeeper doesn't actually look at the card at any point yet still starts walking off.
With regards to the foul itself, I prefer SFP, but I do think it could also be deemed as very upper end of reckless, if I'm recalling it correctly from a different video where there was another angle. Don't think there was any contact from studs and the force was side on, not directly at the player (not sure I'm explaining it too well).
Think SFP is the easier sell though.
