Looked harsh - jumped for the ball and headed it whilst the attacker backed in to him.

Or did he? He was desperate to get back to his goal, looking at the ball, and tried to step over the player? Who knows?

If you don't think it's a stamp then look at this. I've skipped past the annoying little kid.

What is wrong with that bloke ?
Isn't that 4 times in the last 12 months he's been sent off ?

That's a clear deliberate stamp. Not sure what he's even thinking doing that, especially as he'd know that there's no sub goalie on the bench.

Yeah, 3 in the league and 1 in a friendly for Vale (against Chesterfield). He's coming very close to sabotaging his own career as Vale don't want him any more and he's already on a final chance at Chesterfield now. It's strange as he spent two years with us without a sending off from what I can remember, and yet in a year and a bit since leaving gets sent off 4 times.

torq2 - presumably you are joking. Covalan is a complete basket case. Thats why he's back in the national league. He's costs his new club bigtime in a game they would have cakewalked with 11 men on the pitch.
Wouldnt bet him being at Chesterfrield long either - blokes a nutjob.

He was very much considered a safer pair of hands than Shaun MacDonald for us in 20/21 season and I don't remember him doing too much wrong for us which would warrant calling him a nutjob.
Shaun used to make many more rash decisions like coming out of his box or bringing strikers down needlessly.

You can only compare like with like, neither were particularly good but adequate for this league, Covolan is a loose cannon but a good shot stopper, Mcdonalds mind used to go walkabout in a lot of games but had good reactions but in my book was not tall enough.
