The shot was not on target ergo it should only have been a yellow anyway as it did not prevent a clear goalscoring opportunity.
Disagree with this in some respects. If Ox didn't know that it wasn't going wide he shouldn't be allowed to rely upon that fact to save himself. And he obviously didn't  Yeah I agree, he tried to cheat, should be sent off imo. I think that's a little harsh. He actually tried to dive and head it and then instinctively thrust a hand out to tip it when he couldn't reach it with his head. I don't believe it was a premeditated dive to handle the ball. Is that really an instinctive reaction ? |

Instinct or otherwise he obviously did it because he thought the ball was going in. Seems pretty obvious and 'equitable' that he can't now rely on the fact it was going wide to avoid a red card. Obviously in this case it's moot because the red card simply transfers in cases of mistaken identity but generally i think this should be the rule. |

The FA have confirmed that both Kieran Gibbs and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are free to be selected by Arsenal for tomorrow’s game against Swansea.
Referee Andre Marriner mistakenly sent off the left-back after Oxlade-Chamberlain’s handball and after appealing both the wrongful dismissal and the red card itself, Arsene Wenger can call on both players tomorrow.
In a statement, the FA said:
An Independent Regulatory Commission today heard two claims from Arsenal, one of mistaken identity and the other of wrongful dismissal, both in relation to Saturday’s game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The commission ruled that the dismissal of Kieran Gibbs was a case of mistaken identity and transferred this to his team-mate Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Subsequent to deciding this matter, the commission then considered Arsenal’s claim for wrongful dismissal in relation to Oxlade-Chamberlain. This claim was upheld, meaning Oxlade-Chamberlain will not serve any suspension with the standard punishment withdrawn with immediate effect.

Arsene knows, he said he was confident of no ban. Cue tirade from BigAngst. |

He obviously cheated. Just like all players cheat all game. Its an obvious yellow rather than red.
What it does show is how completely their heads had gone by then that he was trying a diving save..felt sorry for him in terms of where his head must have been at to do that.

His head was just a touch further from the ball than his arm... |

And Andre Marriner not banned either.
Seems real.
Re Ox not being banned - gg big club bias. If he played for Southampton he's getting a three game ban there all day.
