I wonder if they'll include that in the highlights....

Should be in the highlights - it was the nearest we got to threatening their keeper!

Apart from winning the odd header, what he got to offer? Serious question.

2.1m views…and climbing.
I’m sure some will still say he was unlucky to be sent off.

Laughing stock. 2.3M now. Expect other teams to wind him up about his new nickname for the rest of the season.

I didn't actually see the incident yesterday. Watching it now, why on earth did he get involved? Stupid beyond words.

It has even made it to The Sun - I shouldn't think it will be in the actual newspaper, but it is in their on-line version, where it is described as "the best sending-off you will ever see". We're famous at last  |

Not sure if this is the right sort of media attention coverage we really want. As i've just heard at 0855 on Talksport Ally McCoist and Gaby Agbonlaror talking about it and falling about with laughter. Derry has gone viral worldwide for the piggy in middle antics.

The only thing that surprises me is Tom Derry-in-the-middle being described as "Britain’s sexiest footballer"

It has begun, someone asked me if it's true that Pig... I mean Derry, has asked that, out of respect, all the Invicta bars stop selling pork scratchings.

It was indeed a silly thing to do, but apparently he was sent off for kicking the goalie. I can't see any kick.

I can see a raised foot and some kind of contact; how severe it was is another question - not very I suspect. But it was just so daft of him to put himself in that situation; the game had stopped and wasn't that close to restarting, so the fact that the keeper and the defender were messing around with two balls didn't matter; once the ref signalled for the game to restart, they would have had to throw one of them off (or get booked) and carry on with the game. Tom probably wishes now that he hadn't got involved, especially as he's almost certainly going to get a three match ban for it.

He's made the club a laughing stock as well. I'll be disappointed if he plays for us again, but not surprised given the total lack of discipline shown so far.

That is clear for all to see . Red Card ...& TalkSport's headline of it is "New angle of viral incident suggests ‘Britain’s sexiest footballer’ didn’t deserve red card" |

Unfortunately from the ref/linesman's view point it did. It doesn't matter if there was no contact, it was just totally unnecessary.

He's made the club a laughing stock as well. Indeed. It's gone pretty much global now. |

I suppose they say there's no such thing as bad publicity....
