alexf Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 With what went on yesterday and now the way Wigan have conducted themselves since the incident they have cemented themselves into now being one of my most hated teams. Didn't used to mind them at all, barely took any notice of them to be fair but now desperate to see them relegated. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Agree he deserves punishment just saying I don't think he intended to end his career or anything like some in here. I agree with this, don't think it was intentional. just a silly silly tackle, that unfortunately could have ended a very young players career. It was the classic "if I get a touch on the ball, I can kill the other guy". He clearly tried to hurt him ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheikBoom Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Wigan have gone down in my estimation here. How on earth can they defend that? If you see the video, he follows through with his other legs. Ends up being both legs off the ground. Hopefully the book is thrown at him... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Dave Whelan is a fucking disgrace, his comments are utterly ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Flash Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Plenty of leg/ankle breakers go almost completely unpunished because the players who gets fouled don't get injured. It's really unfortunate that a player has had to be injured for this to be a big issue (for the next few days anyway). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzzy Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Just watched the clip again a couple times. Now actually unsure on the malice. From this clip it looks like he dident go for the ball and the leg was his intended target.

Mikky Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I think intent was to clear ball but momentum carried him into the planted leg. Not defending the result though, it was nasty. You don't clear a ball like that. Correct. You clear the ball with your laces not studs!! How anyone can defend the Wigan player is beyond me. I agree with the rules that Uefa employ in the CL and Europa: You raise your feet that high its a freekick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skeletor Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Just heard Whelan's comments. He sounded like a babbling moron. When asked why it wouldn't send a wrong message if he escaped a ban he had to hesitate and think of something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSkÃrare Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Until yesterday I didn't care about Wigan. After the tackle I disliked them. After Martinez and Whelan's comments I want that meaningless excuse of a club wiped off the planet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
