Hemed stamp [Charged, appealed, banned for 3 games]

[Brightonfan1983]

Not accidental they'd been at each other all game, if he gets a 3 match ban then we return to being utterly boned

Something was going on, wasn't it? Earlier, Hemed confronted Yedlin about something, I couldn't tell what, but you rarely if ever see Tomer react like that.

If the FA read NSC to sway their opinion, I say it was definitely accidental

I think after what happened to shelvey and mitrovic this season Newcastle will be all over this, and can't blame them.

Is it the same disciplinary lot that let barton off? If so then should be ok?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Accidental, for sure.

 

[Marshy]

Be suprised if he got away with it.

Accidental or not it does not look great, having said that Barton did...

 

[dazzer6666]

Compare that to Joey Barton on Kayal and there's absolutely no case to answer. Be interesting to hear Barton's view on talksport about it.

Talking about it now. Barton says his on Kayal was accidental...........................!

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Joey Barton has just spoken about the incident, says it wasn’t intentional in his opinion, also mentioned that he hadn’t appreciated how good a player Hemed was until he’d played against him.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Looked like nothing to me. No force, eyes on the game, definitely not that sort of player.

 

[Bigtomfu]

Now the mirror piping up too.

The scrutiny in this league is like nothing else in the world.

My general understanding of the retrospective action was something to do with if it's not mentioned in the referees report of the game then they can look at it again using video footage but if the ref mentions it and states why he took no action at the time then they can't.

To question a referee's integrity is not the done thing so let's hope Mr Mariner saw it.

 

[Tooting Gull]

Inconclusive, but the club have to throw everything at defending him if charged and they have stuff to work with. There is no stamping action, certainly doubts over intent and whether possible to avoid it. Plus the 'he"s not that type of player,' though that's less relevant than the incident itself. And maybe video of incidents that look worse but no action was taken eg Barton.

Got a feeling he's going to get done though. We've started ruffling feathers, notably those of Benitez. But to hear people like Souness preaching about this is laughable.

 

[DavidRyder]

Looked deliberate in my opinion, but hopefully not.

What a ****.

A challenge Yedlin made on him in the air....basically all elbows...the were a few shoves in the back that AM didn't seem to warrant free kicks which surprised me...anyway as you say its rare for TH to react which says something in itself and i don't for one moment believe he intentionally stood on Yedlins calf i also never saw the newcastle bench go crazy about it(?)

“It was by accident,” Hemed insisted. “Before I just told him that if he cannot jump for the ball why did he push me? You can try to take the ball but don’t push me.

“After that it was an accident. I didn’t try to do anything. If I hurt him then I’m sorry."

 

[Napper]

looks deliberate to me.

Who to play up front if Murray still not fit.

Nice one Barbs

 

[Whoislloydy]

I don't think he meant it, he never looked down to see where the player was he had eyes on the ball the whole time

 

[shaolinpunk]

Only Hemed will know for sure if he knew what he was doing but if someone had brought their foot down on a Brighton player in that fashion everyone here would be saying it was 100% deliberate and deserves a ban.

It certainly doesn't look great in that there's something of an unnatural force with the way he puts his foot down. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the FA take a closer look.

Yedlin and Hemed had been simmering for most of the game. It's a deliberate, petulant stamp. That said, "stamp" suggests a much more forceful motion, both Shelvey and Hemed's were more like standing, or treading. Not violent or particularly dangerous, but sly and petty. If Shelvey's deserved a 3 match ban, I'm afraid Hemed's does too.

I understand why Newcastle fans would conflate the two incidents, but this and Shelvey's are poles apart, in terms of the evidence of INTENT.

This one, that is absolutely not clear at all - only Hemed will ever know if he meant to do it. Shelvey's was clear as day that it was deliberate (the world's gentlest 'stamp' I grant you, but deliberate, none the less).

 

[timco]

Well the Newcastle fans well upset on Twitter

Twitter.....

I also think he was off balance and natural reactions took over, the Newcastle player tries to get up his knee hits Hemed's right leg this throws Hemed off balance he is falling forward and his natural reaction to to find balance again to stop himself falling over just happens the players leg is under his foot.

Purely accidental in a contact sport.

It is Sky all over trying to whip up controversy when there was none.

 

[FIVESTEPS]

Graham Poll in the Mail thought it was accidental.
