Thespence Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I think the heat of the moment arguement applies far, far more to Colo's case. He wasn't the only one of our lot who should/could have been sent off yesterday. The entire team we're losing their heads. Coloccini was just stupid enough to do it 3 feet from the linesman. That fucker was nee man it looked like a dyke that had come straight from RAF Greenham Common Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 It was weak but he did at least throw a shoulder. It was admittedly an Audley attack but the intent was kind of there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tall Striker Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 In a weird way I can understand Barton's little bit more than Coloccini's the game was lost when he elbowed him it made no sense. Barton punched someone without provocation for a laugh, mate. Punching someone in the chest is nowhere near as cowardly an act as elbowing them in the face as the run alongside you. That's like saying 'running accross the A19 is nowhere near as risky as running accross the A1'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 What Coloccini did was marginally closer to thuggish defending than outright assault. We all know what the Barton incident was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colocho Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 He can't have had too many suspensions. None in his final 2 seasons in Spain, anyway. I'm not too aware of his record, when he signed for us an Argentine friend of mine mentioned how early in his career he did have a reputation as a bit of a dirty player. I think it was whilst he was Alaves he received 11/12 yellows and a red in less than 30 games. Again, don't quote me on this, but I believe there was another season for Depor (I think) where he was sent off twice in about 20 games. He is usually very calm and assured for us, but the odd red card is nothing new to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
