Live Match Discussion 2018/19

I can't understand how anyone can see that incident and possibly think that Mings walking away without so much as a slap on the wrist is the right decision? Fucking bonkers.

 

[Tony Towner]

They've hidden behind the ref saw it argument and bottled it. You can give him the benefit of the doubt once, but twice? He's lost most of the last 3 years with cruciates, seems bizarre he looks to deliberately hurt people with that background

 

[Tom Hark]

Jota has had the red mist descend, and gone for more player than ball in the past too.

Bennett is kinda clever-er with it, committing fouls without the intention to cause proper pain. Someone with a red mist isn't in control.

Mings deserves significant retrospective action imo.

That's exactly the thing. Committed players will lose their rag from time to time, and it's no bad thing, but I'd rather not be supporting anyone capable of committing a cold-blooded assault like that.

 

[Tom Hark]

Far be it from me to defend Villa or Smith, but he's been there 2 days. I'm not sure you can pin that on a team ethos. He does have form for it though, so I guess you could question background checks.

You're right; we need to see what action the club takes before condemning them. But more broadly, I hope and believe we'd come down hard on any sort of malice or cheating. Hard to be proud of a team with Mings in it now.

 

[Tredman]

Police should be involved now. It was very dangerous and can't be tolerated.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

It's not all that long ago since we had a manager who literally ended a fellow pro's career with a disgusting, cowardly challenge. Funnily enough I wasn't that keen on him.

Who was that?

Who was that?

Major Frank Buckley

 

[Kenny]

West Ham are shit but should be winning this game.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Liverpool are being weird off set pieces. They don't normally do this.

I wouldn't normally advocate hurting anybody but in this case I hope he gets his legs broken in the next game.

Wouldn’t surprise me if someone went out to hurt him soon enough

I genuinely didn't know about that.

I genuinely didn't know about that.

I hate him for a lot of reasons, you know.

 

[Kenny]

No offside given but you can see why as the lino's position in this is awful

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Neglicence really, isn't it. Move yo ass.

 

[Kenny]

Also, no clue where Milner is as he is ball watching. At no point does he look across the line, he does early and he spots he is badly out of position. By the time he looks the ball is at Milner's feet and he has no clue.

Evened it up though by flagging Salah offside later on and he was onside.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We need de BAR

Scumbag, one more reason to despise the prick

 

[lemonjelly]

that wasn't the only saunders onfield assault. in a cup game, he smashed his elbow into an opposition player (from colchester?) worst thing about it was he looked behind him to see the player approach, and threw the elbow into his face hard.
