Guest icemanblue Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Somewhat cynical, but could we be holding off on confirming the nature of the injury until the FA charge the player? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 If Ashley HAS decided to seriously go after Mc and Wigan then shit gonna get real and quick. Big money buys very keen lawyers. Good news. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley17 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Might have been posted before: http://espnfc.com/blog/_/name/newcastleunited/id/723?&cc=5739 Good read It is a good read but if you think of the bone cruncher's Anita put in on Thursday and Cabaye on Dembele I'm not sure we should be looking for sympathy. Granted, it's ridiculous that neither Haidara or ben Arfa even got a free kick but in a way that makes it worse - the ref has called a foul and thinks it's only a yellow - the same punishment for kicking the ball away, time wasting, taking your shirt off etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 2011 - Makes a reckless tackle on Gai Assulin and leaves him to be stretchered off the pitch. FEB 2013 - Announces on Twitter that "are(!) boys love a tackle" and uses the hashtag #twofoot. MARCH 2013 - Makes a reckless tackle on Massadio Haidara and leaves him to be stretchered off the pitch. Not that sort though is he. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom1988 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 He shouldn't be allowed to play until Haidara can play again. Should have been the same for de jong too (and nolan in fairness) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 If suing him is possible, take the thug to the cleaners. I'm worried about what legal action implies though It means we've been hurt in some way by recklessness, neligence or vindictive intent. Frankly there's not enough legal action brought by football clubs for this sort of thing. It implies very little as to Haidara's recovery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I didn't get nowhere near as mad at the De Jong incident as i have at this.... I still to this day believe that the De Jong tackle was an accident and Hatem was just extremely unlucky to feel the full force of it and i didn't consider it to be insanely reckless either. This to me has some sort of intent behind it and is extremely reckless and studs first well above the ball. I don't like De Jong at all but i don't consider it to be anywhere near as bad as this.

I'm not sticking up for De Jong but a lot of the reation to that was down to who got injured and the extent of it. From memory I genuinely don't think De Jong's was that bad at all in comparison to what we see pretty often. A red wouldn't exactly have been harsh but had Ben Arfa not broke his leg I don't think anyone would have complained after the game with a yellow.

JJ7 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Not sure about legal action like. You start going down a dangerous path with that. Plus, have to remember some of our own players over time. Remember Guthrie breaking that lads leg, played for Hull I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
