colinmk Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Sorry but you are completely wrong. My annoyance (as I mentioned with the Dnipro sending off on Thursday and mentioned on here at the time) is how soft the game is these days. I have repeatedly said Pardew was in the wrong and deserved what he has got as I quoted, so take your tale, stick it between your legs and walk away I agree about the game going soft, it's gone far too far when a manager can no longer nut an opposition player and something needs to change quick. In my day managers were nutting fans, referees and children. Cannot believe people are trying to play this down so much. He's the manager, not a player.

I have said he is in the wrong. 2. I am only questioning the ridiculous reaction to the incident. A player shouldn't do it, a manager definitely shouldn't do it but some (especially the media) are acting like Pardew has broken Meyler's nose. He did the pathetic "I'm going to headbutt you" gesture which I never understand because they don't actually headbutt the player but get the same punishment they would if they had. Just to clarify (again), Pardew is in the wrong but common sense would have been the whole thing sorted out with the ref/4th official saying "Come on lads, stop being dickheads!" and it would have been done and dusted without the hysteria.

You don't really believe this nonsense do you? Isn't violent conduct a 3 game ban (which Remy got)? Either way the point still stands, what is the point in feigning/slighting doing something which you know you will get banned for? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really believe this nonsense do you? Isn't violent conduct a 3 game ban (which Remy got)? I don't know. But if a player connects a nice headbutt and breaks the other players nose then he's not going to get the same punishment as you get for these little posturing "headbutts".

The rules should be changed though because anyone with a brain should be able to tell the difference between a genuinely violent act and some pitiful hard man bullshit. They should spend more time punishing those still diving and play acting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 He went after a player and nutted him - it's incredible that a manager has even done it, even more so that people are saying the reaction is a sign of the game going soft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Couple of facts: - Incidents like that are always described as headbutts when players do it. - The media are always all over any contentious incidents in football and will debate them to death, particularly if they're unusual or in this case unprecedented. If you can't acknowledge the above and accept it then you want Pardew to be given special treatment compared to anyone else, for some reason. I acknowledge all of that, would never claim otherwise. Like I said yesterday, my opinion is nothing to do with it being Pardew really. I just strongly dislike the faux-outrage about relatively minor altercations. The only 'faux' reaction in this thread is quite typically yours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry i couldn't resist Personally I've agreed with most of the stuff in the media despite the "sack him" bollocks from neutrals which has ironically annoyed me. If someone expresses the view that we're all going a bit OTT with our criticism of him then I would say that is defending him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have updated my personal text and signature just in case anyway. Fair do's, I'm just saying I think this is a serious incident for a number of reasons and not something that could/should be palmed off. The FA's rules aren't at fault in this instance (assuming he gets a lengthy ban), I'd agree that the media reaction is amplified in these cases but that's partly because it's rare. Pardew's managed to make himself the first manager in the history of the Premier League to nut a player during a game, he'll get hounded for weeks/months and punished, and deservedly so.
