Mate -you’re supposed to ask Harv what level he played at so he can continue his humble bragOriginally posted by SB View PostNo I haven’t played any sport at a high level mate. I get the desire to win at all costs but it’s the injuring ( or potentially )the opponent in the process that does my head in. The punching the ball situation I’d probably do too tbh.

Theres obviously degrees to it, like early in a game its less important, but towards the end of the game if you're winning you just have to do it.
I was screaming at Konate to take Semenyo out in our first game this season. Just rugby tackle the guy ffs.
Same thing with Suarez in the World Cup punching the ball off the line. Had to do it for the team. People can cry about it being unsportsmanlike all they want, but he gave Uruguay a chance to win the match. Thats all that matters for them.

I'm not sure he led with his studs. Looks like the top or side of his foot. He's tapped his heel, he hasn't raked him.
If every intent to make contact with the player is red, then there's going to be be a lot of reds.

Studs up, aimed at the achilles, the intent was to make contact and it was dangerous and reckless. 100% a red card for serious foul play imo.

10 games for making someone stumble?Originally posted by ChesterDave View PostRightly so. And the game would improve if ****ty snidey tackles like that resulted in 10 game bans
He clipped his heels, he didn’t chop him down.
That’s a yellow for me. Cynical, but not dangerous.
