BONTEMPI Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 'Possibly a yellow...' Newcastle 0-0 Arsenal Danny Mills BBC Radio 5 live at St James's Park "That is not a red card offence. He mistimes it, it's possibly a yellow card, but it's not particularly violent. Andre Marriner has had three big decisions to make so far and he's got all of them wrong." "People are saying on social media that the red card was a leg-breaking tackle. Never in a million years! Broken toenail maybe." --------------- Don't usually agree with Danny Mills and think he talks a lot of shit - but I think he's got that spot on. Aye was listening whilst in the garden with the kids. He was disgusted by Marriner, and commented on how Arsenal players were doing the exact same things and not getting booked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Collage Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It was a bad decision, but it was a judgement call. No chance of having it overturned. Agree - they would be wasting their time. It'll be more to show Mitrovic that he has the club's support; all good IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's talking shit there,a boot full of studs planted on the shin is more likely to break a leg than it is a toenail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 He barely made contact with his shin, come away man. If Coquelin had stood up and walked off (which he easily could have, as evidenced when he ran back on the pitch seconds later) - it would have been a yellow, at most. The reaction bought the red card without a shadow of a doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 He made contact but it had very little weight behind it. People saying it was a potential leg breaker are off their tits. Potential leg breaker = Bardsley bending Colo's leg with a stud up tackle and gone unpunished. Mitrovic supposed leg breaker = stepped on dudes foot. Love me some holier than others brigade man. Letter of the law can lick Pardew's ass crack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see that challenge done on yourself, you'd be changing your mind instantly. Not a chance, the shinpad is there for a reason - for accidental collisions like this. The force was felt on his foot, if anywhere - and even still, the foot wasn't left in and was more like a lass standing on your foot on a night out in heels. Coquelin went down like an embarrassing sack of shit, like he did all game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 honestly I can see how people can think it was a red if they thought there was intent (in which case it is a red) but I don't get this nasty leg breaker bollocks. It was soft as shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's recreate it, I'll come round and touch your shin with my foot, see how instantly you change your mind? It was a stamp BTW, not a touch. He had his other foot planted to the floor. He tried to get the ball FFS. Most stamps involve a player jumping in and landing with one foot on the opposition player. This was nothing like that because he didn't jump in.

He's got the physical attributes to really impose himself on the opposition and he knows it, but he needs to be a bit more clever in how he goes about it, that's all.
