Swansea 0-1 Barcodes, Lascelles!
Swansea 0-1 Barcodes, Lascelles!
And 0-1 FT!
The ridiculous idiot Graham Polls explains:
So dangerous play now relies upon contact being made? Or put another way, you can launch a two-footed, studs up drop kick at an opponent and if he dodges, yellow card because there's no contact. And using Poll logic, if you go for the ball and accidentally make contact, red card.When Matt Ritchie flew in with a high boot towards Alfie Mawson you could see he was clearly worried which colour of card Mike Jones would produce — no doubt after Sadio Mane's red card the day before.
The aerial challenge was incredibly similar apart from the contact on Mawson, who should be applauded for his calm reaction to the incident.
Jones showed a yellow card, which I think was because he thought there was no contact. Had he seen contact, which was made on the Swansea player's forearm, then a red card would have had to be shown as the challenge certainly endangered the safety of Mawson.
Makes perfect sense Graham. You idiot.

Pardew is another example of football genius.
He is today saying that it was worse than the Mane incident.
I'm not quite sure how he works that out, considering Ritchie hit the players arm and Mane hit the keeper in the face

MNF is on.
Neville has been dropped.
Carragher and Fat Sam starting.
Most football commentators only come on TV to show how thick they really are and expose their lack of knowledge of the laws of the game. Tony Cottee saying the Mane one was at most a yellow, because "He only had eyes on the ball". Its called dangerous play you berk. It has nothing to do with where Mane was looking. He certainly knew the keeper was coming but didnt back out. Endangering a fellow professional. It would have been a red any where on the pitch even if another player was trying to head the ball and he lifted his foot head height.
Its like saying you had no intention to kill someone when you were doing 80 in a 50mph zone. Your intentions are irrelevant.
Make 2mrw better than 2day
There's absolutely no way Mane could prevent colliding with a player's head too. Impossible to the way he was flying in.
I just don't understand why it has caused such an uproar.
'Ammers: Hart; Zabaleta, Reid, Collins, Fonte, Cresswell; Kouyate, Obiang, Antonio; Chicharito, Carroll.
Huddersfield: Lossl; Smith, Zanka, Schindler, Lowe; Kachunga, Billing, Mooy, Ince; Van la Parra, Mounie.
Fat Sam's blueprint for survival.
Clean sheets.
I reckon scoring more goals than the opposition is next up.
