I'm not suggesting that YOU were, but both the above pics (the 'thow' and the 'shirt grab') are useless should anyone be attempting to cite them as evidence either way.

It’s ludicrous for someone sitting in the stands - ie not dead level with the line, to claim the know it went out.
None of us know, but it’s irrelevant to what Aurier did subsequently.
Winks doesn’t cover himself in glory either, fucking about appealing instead of just playing on.
See above... Just rejecting the pictoral evidence presented.
Agree, none of us can be 100% about either, but to me it looks very much like Aurier’s hand is clearly “on” his shirt and on balance you can add it to the fact that Aurier did not complain and has subsequently apologised to his teammates.
Well I certainly dispute your assertion of "clearly" for the above reason, but ultimately I don't contest the decision itself; just the inconsistency given the so-called proffesional fouling that S'ton were allowed to commit un-carded.
I agree, there’s “clever” fouling (which we used to be quite good at a couple of years back) and Southampton did plenty of this, but they did also get away with some more obvious stuff too.
But then there’s what Aurier did, which is scissor someone and then pull someone back who was clean through. A ref has absolutely nowhere else to go with those. He could have even red’d the first one.
Aye... The 1st yellow was needless. Was talking about the 2nd.
I sense we're on the same page here really.
I think it's just a myth to be honest. I'm pretty sure KWP is faster than him.
A Ref needs to be consistent and he was not booking Southampton fouls. I think when sent off we had conceded 3 fouls to Southampton's 10. This included 2 of Aurier's. I seem to recall a similar tackle on Kane when he went down in the box recently and no foul given. Whilst not excusing Aurier, the 2nd yellow was weak and no one would have criticised the ref if he did not give it.
You tug someone going clean away from you it’s always going to be a yellow, especially in an attacking scenario. Irrelevant of whether you believe he tugged him or not, if the ref thinks he did it’s a stonewall yellow.
I totally agree. I feel like the ref initially wanted to give a red and then regretted the decision. He would have given that second yellow for anything remotely physical. Then we get to watch Kane get tackled and not even a hint of a card. Apparently you can tackle Kane and no cards, no fouls. I feel like I've seen this a few times this season.
I can't remember but I feel like his first start for us produced a red card as well. He needs to give up on the sliding tackles too. I also hold my breathe whenever he throws it in nowadays too.
Mentally weak, full of errors and no spine when we are losing. Along with others I never want to see this overpaid, pampered dick head anywhere near the team again.
This is not about Aurier.
He shouldn't play again.
The Aurier thread is not about Aurier?
