  1. 99* JJ Ritchie

    I've just seen a replay of it.

    Not a red, but why did he even need to go to ground? He'd already got the ball before he started "sliding", just seemed pointless to begin sliding and catch the guy.

  3. 99* JJ Ritchie

    He's either very, very stupid. Or he's a cunt.
     
  4. Riddy JH Ridd

    im going the latter
     
  5. Verigoat S Verigotta

    People really need to stop saying that touching the ball in a tackle automatically means it can't be a bad/reckless tackle
     
  6. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Rio went through Ben Arfa. Reckless/careless.

    :troll:
     
  7. SuperNova SJ Nova

    If Rooney gave the crowd a middle finger = national hero
     
  8. mouse MJ Edwards

    Silly from Suarez and will probably get a 2 match ban for it. I'm not even going to try and defend his actions, he's in the wrong, as simple as that.

    Rooney got a two match ban for swearing down a camera last season and it's time for the FA to be consistent on this.

    Suarez, fucking idiot.

    Veri saying getting the ball means nothing is laughable. Possibly the most stupid thing I've heard in this thread.
     
  10. McGrath JE McGrath

    Tbh i dont think it was a red.
     
  11. Baxter MJ Deane

    Widnell, wag.
    Shoulder and head clearly look over the line tbh

    It quite clearly does matter. Winning the ball is utterly irrelevant if the tackle is wild and likely to cause another player serious injury.

    So if Spearing did that exact same tackle at head height, and decapitated Dembele, it'd be similarly bad as it was in the Fulham game?

    Garry O'Connor of Hibs got away with a worse bit of diving earlier in the season. If Aluko gets hammered it just adds to the theory that the Old Firm, and particularly Rangers, get unfairly targetted by this system.

    Aluko also got hacked to the ground last week at Kilmarnock, and no penalty got given. Where's the equivelant 2 match ban for that?

    Garry o connor = druggy shunt
     
  18. Verigoat S Verigotta

    Rooney got a 2 game ban for swearing :/

    :fp:

    fucking dolt
     
  19. mouse MJ Edwards

    And that's why Suarez deserves a two match ban as well. The FA needs to be consistent on the matter

    You're such a shunt. You're only contribution, simply to try and make me look like an idiot, when clearly what I was saying was that whether you get the ball or not, a 2 footed tackle is against the rules, when Eds was saying that it was fair he did use 2 feet, because it's what he "needed" to do to win the ball.

    Yeah this tbh. I hadn't actually seen the tackle, so couldn't really comment on the actual specific incident, but it shouldn't have been a red. Can't see it being over turned though.

    Also Suarez, what an idiot. Just causes problems for his team tbh.
