What chance of getting that decision overturned.
For me it was never a red card, it was clever by Eto to effectively stop and let the chasing Kaboul bump into him....although it baffles me why a striker would instinctively look for the foul and not instinctively look to score.
However there was contact and even if it was simply a coming together of players, which happens dozens of times every game, there is no way the FA will turn this over.
They will back their ref even though it was a very poor decision and a very poor match for him, where he broke up the flow of the game with constant petty decisions. He is a real 'homer' of a ref and we benefited earlier in the season with that Hull penalty.
We need Kabs vs Arsenal, with Dawson & Chiriches injured gods knows what the back 4 will be! Is Capoue close to returning?

Kabs should never have allowed Eto to get ahead of him and in real time you cannot blame the ref for producing a red. I hope it gets overturn but I am not holding my breathe.

Yeah I can see why the ref gave the penalty but never a red card with that many defenders in the box. Very harsh. Can't see them overturning it though and surprised that Spurs have appealed.

@SpursOfficial: The @FA has confirmed that the Club’s appeal against Younes Kaboul's red card during Saturday's PL fixture vs Chelsea has been successful.
