Everyone in black and white served up a total bag of shit yesterday, and if we're going to hang anyone out to dry it certainly shouldn't be Coloccini. He's not immune from criticism though, and frankly deserves everything said about him for the elbow.
We've forgiven far worse players for much more heinous crimes. 3 game ban to sort his head out and remind him there's other people in the queue to play centre-back. As someone said, the error-prone Colo has been starting to rear it's ugly head a tiny bit.
