Parky hails great run but slams VAR on Dobson red
Daily Post
|March 09, 2026
Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson has insisted that George Dobson's red card in Saturday's FA Cup defeat to Chelsea was the wrong decision, as VAR overturned the on-field decision.
-
The Red Dragons were reduced to 10 men in injury-time with the score level at 2-2. Referee Peter Bankes had originally shown the midfielder a yellow card, before VAR recommended him to head to the on-field screen and review the incident again.
A short review followed before Banks overturned his decision and sent Dobson off.
Wrexham went on to suffer more VAR heartbreak as Lewis Brunt’s equaliser was ruled out for offside.
Speaking after the eventful cup tie, which his side lost 4-2 after extra-time, Parkinson doubted whether the decision needed to be changed.
