Gus is gonna be livid

 

[Gav1901]

Anyone know what started it or did their player just randomly run up to Barnes and punch him

 

[El Turi]

We obviously would have won 3-2.

Do you think we'll be having a Le Harve style arrangement with Portimonense?

 

[Mackenzie]

Nothing funny bout 1 of are players getting punched!

Its quite funny (as long as he's alright. Not so good if the punch actually hurt him). Sounds like the team building has worked, all the boys piled in.

Can't wait for the 'extended highlights'

I don't know but a Plymouth player got a straight red the other day in a friendly.

 

[Lush]

Albion boss Gus Poyet was first on the pitch to try to calm things down.

Righty-oh

HOLROYD was due a hattrick

this was part of the text commentary

26: Ashley Barnes looking lively upfront, winning the majority of his aeriel battles, but the Portuguese side's defenders don't seem to impressed with his robust approach - all within the law I might add.

Wouldn't of thought so, i think players can only get suspended in friendlies if it's given by the club.

Ivandildo sounds a bit of a prick.

Naylor's version

Albion's friendly against Portimonense in Portugal tonight was abandoned in the second half after a mass confrontation.

The bust-up was sparked by an off-the-ball incident involving Albion striker Ashley Barnes and Portimonense forward Ivanildo.

Ivanildo chased after Barnes and pushed him following a challenge by the Seagulls' frontman.

All hell then broke loose. Albion boss Gus Poyet was first on the pitch to try to calm things down.

He was then joined by the rest of his players and staff, together with the entire Portimonense squad and bench.

Referee Nuno Guerbeiro marched down the tunnel with his assistants.

Albion trailed 2-0 at the time to goals by Pena just before half-time and an explosive shot by Ivanildo after the break.

Bollocks did Gus try and calm everything down.

 

[Mackenzie]

No red cards shown as far as I can see, I doubt there will be any suspensions.

They can be suspended but whether the suspension has any affect in the UK is a different story.

Oatway's 1 match ban given by the FAI the last time a friendly abroad for the Albion turned in to a fight applied in the UK.

 

[steve-c]

we are no push overs ..........good to see the players sticking up for each other.

 

[seggers]

Oh well we should make SSN with this!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Oatway's 1 match ban given by the FAI the last time a friendly abroad for the Albion turned in to a fight applied in the UK.

Was he there tonight?

Hmmm. And Gary Hart.

I see a pattern emerging.
