Lascelles delayed the throw so they could all shift across to properly defend the throw. Could easily have been the moment they nicked a goal. Has to be applauded and absolutely worth a yellow. Arguably a Red card for me. I don't know the actual rules around it but for me I'd have probably accepted that if was given. Either way, it was worth it and I'm glad he did it.

Conjo Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I thought Lascelles was trying to push Cucurella back because he was trying to be snide moving way longer forward than where the ball had gone out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomlynnherrington Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Every team would slow the game down if the circumstances warranted it.If you disagree you are absolutely clueless on this topic.To any clueless posters on here,name a team who would take an average amount of time over a goal kick with 30 seconds remaining in a game if the score line was in their favour? If you disagree,show yourself !!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ungentlemanly contact is a yellow card offence.Lascelles conduct probably came under that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under what rule could you make any argument for red? It was like putting a foot out to stop a quick free kick. Yellow at most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 We're getting stick for doing similar. I can't help thinking what the media reaction would be were it Man U or Liverpool doing it. In one word: 'different'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too easy to ask your backroom staff or subs to get involved if the only consequence is a yellow card. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BennyBlanco Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I quite like the fact that we have a bit of nastiness to our game now. Always looking to leave a boot in, waste time when needed or in the case of yesterday have a bit of a row. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howe and Tindall were screaming at the players that it was a throw too. Was a close up on Sky. Howe was on the field too. Guess Lascelles was the one who heard.

toontownman Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 So we couldn't make any more subs and sent Lascelles out purely for the shitehousery. Well played. I'm not into the dark arts but after decades of being generally the nice guys, taking zero shit all round is refreshing in the least. Shearer, Batty and Pearce would have loved playing in this team. Bowyer and Barton would have taken it too far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanj Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I just rewatched the last 20 mins of the game and it’s even less bad than you think heat of moment. We started tackling harder, crowd was feeding into it and then we basically disrupted any momentum they had towards the end. Free kick? Let’s shove a bit and slow them them down. Let’s get into their attacking players heads to rattle them up and make them lose focus. It’s brilliant stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiesteve710 Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Particularly enjoyed Murphy putting the ball down for a corner (which should have been given btw) and pretending he didn't know that it was a throw that had been given. Before a) putting his hands up, explaining politely and slowly that it was a misunderstanding and b) asking the referee if he's sure it wasn't a corner. Whole charade took a good 30 seconds.

The Man Utd team of the 90s knew every trick in the book and they weren't shy of using them. It was explained away with euphemisms such as them having "a competitive streak", "wanting it more" and "just refusing to accept defeat." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
