Two-footed tackle

Gifted lad, my tackle is nowhere near two foot long.

 

[ali jenkins]

5168 is the attendance

I think thats worse than we would have got if we had just eaten Everton the week before

Isn't that less than they took to Everton?? I thought that was 5500.

OGH on

Wrong! A captain does exactly that, sounds from reports AT THE GAME that it was not an awful tackle maybe just a bit enthusiastic and whole hearted.

More of the same please Brighton, perhaps the referee should have a think about his decisions though.

Not sure I agree that captains should be diving in two footed.

 

[ali jenkins]

It might not be as bad as everyone is imagining.

All we can go on is the opinion of the guys on the radio.

Lets wait untill we see the highlights before we start passing judgement!

The point I am trying to make is that from reports I have had from people at the ground (inc. BHA fans & unbiased press) it wasnt a two footed tackle, he just went in 100%. I think everyone must agree that that IS exactly what we want from our captain. Unfortunately we can't foresee how referees will interpret these tackles.

After reading Ali's comment above I must admit I agree. Yeah I'm backing him up but I haven't seen the tackle yet either.

Remember though, as much as I hate him Roy Keane has been rated as one of the greatest club captains of all time and is wasn't unlike him to throw in a few atrocious tackles was it.

Nothing appears to be happening...

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Two-footed tackle

great, totally preventable then.

 

[Superphil]

bit of pressure now, comon

 

[Ernest]

Just seems to be fizzling out to another DEPRESSING loss

 

[Black Country Seagull]

wigan 1 - derby 0

 

[dougdeep]

Sounds like we are doing pretty well now.

 

[ali jenkins]

Would this have been a diffrent game if we had 11 players?

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Would this have been a diffrent game if we had 11 players?

Would this have been a game if we had 11 different players?

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

Would this have been a diffrent game if we had 11 players?

Nope,it's once again our own fault for losing concentration and concedeing a stupid goal. Just like Swansea.
