Big Geordie Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 What a farce football has turned into. Never worthy of a red in a million years. And yet most people will say it was by rolling out cliches like "he gave the ref a decision to make", "if you do that you're risking it" blah blah blah. Absolutely fucking ludicrous. Wasn't even a free kick ffs. Adebayor's was the same yesterday, as clear a yellow as you've ever seen. We're at the point now where any sort of late sliding tackle is risking a red card. That yesterday WAS a straight red for me - n doubt. Both feet were well off the ground when he dived in and by some distance! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Why would you even try to tackle Cattermole. Just let him have the ball and he'll give it to you eventually. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Official's interpretation of what is dangerous is killing the game. I really am getting to the stage where I just won't watch anymore. Tackling is an art and has always been part of the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He caught him late on the foot, he was never going to do any damage other than being a bit sore. Five years ago there's no way a red card would have even been considered.

Smal Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 so disappointing that tackles like that Hangeland one are considered red cards now. We are far too hung up on these 'potentially leg breaking' tackles in football. Adebayor's yesterday was never a red card either. All tackles are potentially dangerous and you're as likely to break your leg in a completely innocuous tackle as any other. Tackling is part of the game and players are going to get hurt. I blame Sky and the media. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokerprince2004 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Isnt this the third time the mackems have been given a dubious early red card to the opposition. Wigan at home which was never a red, tiote of course which wasnt a red IMO and now today another very soft red! I would still be surprised if they won as well which shows how bad they are Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
