BlueStar Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/feb/02/stuart-baxter-sacked-by-indian-football-club-odisha-after-using-analogy Stuart Baxter has been sacked by the Indian Super League club Odisha after using an offensive analogy about rape over a refereeing decision. Baxter, a British former player and well-travelled coach whose previous job was with South Africa’s national team, made his remarks after Monday’s defeat by Jamshedpur. “You need decisions to go your way and they didn’t,” the 67-year-old said in an interview on Indian’s Star Sports television. “I don’t know when we’re going to get a penalty. I think one of my players would have to rape someone or get raped himself if he was going to get a penalty.” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Aside from being a horrible analogy anyway, how does this make sense? I don’t know when we’re going to get a penalty. I think one of my players would have to rape someone or get raped himself if he was going to get a penalty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Aside from being a horrible analogy anyway, how does this make sense? I don’t know when we’re going to get a penalty. I think one of my players would have to rape someone or get raped himself if he was going to get a penalty. Assume he is correcting himself. Haven't seen the clip though.

Froggy Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 How many were pens? ? Exactly half his goals. Indeed. 20 goals, 10 pens (which need to be scored FWIW). 10 from open play, the most of any midfielder. Salah has scored 8 pens in the same period. Vardy 10 pens. Don't see the issue. "Since his debut, Fernandes has scored 28 times in all competitions - more than any other Premier League player - and he has also provided 17 assists, which means his total goal involvement of 45 is better than any Premier League player in that period. Only Fifa Best winner Robert Lewandowski, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo have more goal involvements in Europe's top five leagues than Fernandes since he signed for United. Boss Solskjaer said after he netted his first goal against Watford: "He felt like a presence in the group from the first minute, a bit of a mix between Paul Scholes and Juan Sebastian Veron - the temperament of Veron and a lot of the quality of Scholesy." That quality saw Fernandes win four Premier League player of the month awards in 2020 - the first man to take the accolade four times in a calendar year. In comparison, Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, Frank Lampard and Alan Shearer won four player of the month awards in their entire careers in this country." PENANDES.
