TBF I do think spitting is worse than a generic bad tackle, but not as bad as violent conduct like a stamp. Bad tackles are part of the game.

dunno, spitting is disgusting but don't end careers, bad tackles can. Seems rather backwards and overall petty

Statements from them both:

 

Cisse

"I have apologies to make to a lot of people today. Firstly to my teammates and to our supporters, secondly to Jonny Evans, and thirdly to every football fan who saw the incident between myself and Jonny.

 

"I reacted to something I found very unpleasant. Sometimes it is hard not to react, particularly in the heat of the moment. I have always tried hard to be a positive role model, especially for our young fans, and yesterday I let you down.

 

"I hope children out there playing football for their clubs and schools this weekend will know better than to retaliate when they are angry. Perhaps when they see the problem it now causes me and my team they will be able to learn from my mistake, not copy it."

 

Evans

"Having woken up this morning I am shocked to have seen the media coverage from last night’s match. I would like to make it clear that I did not spit at Papiss Cisse.

 

"I was totally unaware of any spitting incident and had assumed that the issue at the time was with the challenge and his attempted retaliation to the tackle from the floor. During the game Papiss Cisse and I spoke about the incident and it is clear by my reaction in the television footage that I was totally surprised by any suggestion of spitting.

 

"It is not in my character or in my nature to spit at anybody nor is it something I have ever done or would ever do. It is certainly not something that I did last night."

Shocking behaviour from Evans. What kind of man doesn't take responsibility for his own actions? Papiss comes out looking like a fucking adult in all this, his quotes are fantastic.

 

:pardsgrin:
