Altamullan Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 More hassle than he's worth. God I hate football fans. It's people, not just football fans. It's the f***ing tabloid generation, attention span of a nat, where everyone is f***ing offended at everything and yet can't be bothered to do a f***ing thing about anything. It's been three games and that's enough, can't be spending any longer than that on a player, not enough time in our busy football fan lives. Should've signed a war veteran, he would've got the exact same red card and the exact same suspension, but he would've been a f***ing hero. Jacky Colback picks up this red and there'd be a change.org petition before you could say pirouette. Every day I'm a step closer to buying an island and working out how to make WMDs. Thanks Semi..., your going off half-cocked really cheered me up! "Put them in a field, and bomb the barstewards!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I'm sorry like, I disagree with anyone who says that wasn't a red. By the letter of the law it was as clear a red card as you'll see. And I thought Sissoko thoroughly deserved the yellow early on as well. Thought the red did fine to be honest. Embarrassing hearing our fans chanting all that stuff at the ref when in reality he's had a decent game. Mitrovic needs to do better...simple. He's only got himself to blame. You're taking your horseplop talking levels to new heights here. OK. Simple question... Taking off any black and white specs that we all wear, if those tackles were made on our players would we or would we not have been shouting for reds. i don't see that it's even a 'tackle'. mitro has gone to try & trap/play the ball as it comes down & when the arsenal dude gets his foot in 1st mitro's boot goes straight down his shin. never a red for me & i don't think i'd be super arsed if the roles were completely reversed. Spot on which is why I say I don't think it was even a foul, just a clumsy accidental collision as he tried to get the ball under control and coqboy got in quicker.

Or a yellow. And there's the consistency which for me is the only issue i have with all this. Its a total disgrace having one rule for the top 4 and another for everyone else. They aren't even subtle about it any more. I've seen Rooney go out of the way to elbow a player in the face, and have nothing done then or after. That was probably the decision that broke the camels back for me, no going back from that. The FA are as corrupt as FIFA. The whole sport needs nuking.

taxfree Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Much more force, way more dangerous. Yet not even a card. Infuriating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BONTEMPI Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Much more force, way more dangerous. Yet not even a card. Infuriating. Bit like the Rooney elbow from a few seasons back that was totally ignored. A stink needs to be made about that Shaw stamp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Of course it wasn't a red or yellow, it's Man Utd! And not Mitrovic, the awful horrible man! EDIT - surely if Mitrovic's appeal is turned down, then Shaw should receive a 3-game ban for making the same sort of challenge? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madras Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Thing is, the Premiership governing body seem to revel in stuff like this (Shaw/Mitrovic) as they get a chance to stress "know your place". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I believe after the Mcmanaman challenge on Haidara they changed the rules so if I was a part of the hierarchy at NUFC. If they reject the appeal I would cite that challenge upon the new rules and see what happens and send the FA a letter of intent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where you'd hope MA's famed maverick streak would come in handy, instead of sitting down and taking it we should be fighting a very public fight to get Mitrovic's ban overturned highlighting the inconsistencies etc. But we won't, we'll know our place.

Cronky Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 None of this is going to make any difference. 'Look at him, he did something worse' isn't any kind of defence. I just hope Toney turns out to be good, because I think we might need him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
