Greg Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I think it was more the act itself than if it actually caused any pain or not (which it obviously didn't), it's just really disrespectful to nudge/push anyone. A touchline ban would be harsh but rules are rules. Wenger pushed the 4th official a few years ago and got away with an £8k fine iirc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm not saying it wasn't stupid, but I've seen an article saying the FA should throw the book at him/make an example of him etc. You would think he inflicted pain on the guy going by some peoples' reactions. IMO he should receive whatever the standard fine is for placing your hands on an official is, and then be forgotten about. It was a silly mistake that wouldn't have been thought twice about had it not been on air/in the public eye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 http://www.zonalmarking.net/2012/08/20/newcastle-2-1-tottenham-pardew-switches-formation-ben-arfa-excels-in-both-systems/ Don't agree with that tbh, Ben Arfa is restricted in 4-4-2 he has to start so deep with his runs and it's a lot harder to be effective.

Pilko Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Does Pardew have any previous for touchline shenanigans/getting sent off etc? I remember he squared up to Wenger but he was cleared of all charges from that, is there owt else? Could work in his favour if not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 so----- I only saw some of first half and highlights as at a wedding do--- was it just luck? were we worth the win? They were better first half, we switched to 4-3-3 second and played better. Boiled down to the fact we had match winners/game changers and they didn't imo. hopefully we can fluke another good season, and the mackems can earn another s*** one then. Just wait until we actually play somebody. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember he squared up to Wenger but he was cleared of all charges from that, is there owt else? Could work in his favour if not. I guess they'll just give him the shortest possible ban anyway, just for symbolic reasons. They probably don't want to punish him realise, but they know they can't let him off completely.

NEEJ Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Just watching the highlights again, Pardew blatantly practices those fist-pumping-air moments in the mirror like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Canny vid. Holy shit what a weird creepy man. The intro and outro are special to say the least. The atmosphere sounded fucking brilliant though, gave me goosebumps, can't wait to make it to SJP for an actual match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Modric leaving will be the nail in the coffin for this current Spurs side. I'm not saying AVB will fail but I do believe they will get worse before they get better. When a new manager comes in, everything changes. I certainly can't see them in the top four.

Elliottman Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Just found out that Taylors header to Krul on Saturday was actually illegal and Spurs should have been given a free kick. Manufacturing a back pass or something along those lines. Well there you go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest icemanblue Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 See, I'm confused by this. Surely it's not a 'back pass' if the ball is played forward? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought as long as it was passed to a keeper via a header it was allowed? I said at the time that when the backpass rule was first brought in people were trying that in the friendlies before the season started and were told in no uncertain terms you weren't allowed to do it.

Dave Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 http://www.fifa.com/mm/document/affederation/generic/81/42/36/lawsofthegame_2012_e.pdf There are different circumstances when a player must be cautioned for unsporting behaviour, eg if a player: ... uses a deliberate trick while the ball is in play to pass the ball to his own goalkeeper with his head, chest, knee etc. in order to circumvent the Law Should have been an indirect freekick and a booking.

Dokko Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 So all heading back to the keeper is illegal? Stupid rule, glad no one enforces it (but probably will now) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
