Roberto Firmino

[Kenneth]

Don't you ever get bored of this ****?

He doesn't.

[Lecter]

His intent was clear and had not been for Milner getting in his way, he could have ****ted the chap. To his credit, he composed himself thereafter.

Referee got in the way first

You're either on the windup or a lost cause

Ahhh so Firmino should be banned for something he might have done if things had happened differently? By the way Milner did not get to him first. The ref was there first.


He might have done this, and he could have done that. There was me thinking bans for things that a player actually did do.

[Fredo]

Again I will ask you what exactly in his reaction do you think is ban worthy? As in what in that reaction looks to have broken the rules of the game as to be worthy of a ban?


With Holgate it is easy to say what he did that was against the rules of the game, and I already did, so would like to hear what exactly you think Firmino did that is potentially worth a ban.

He did mouth off Holgate and it's clear it was something quite rude in Portuguese allegedly. 'Puta' was certainly said.

He's been like this since he joined the forum so don't expect him to change now.

So was clear what he said or was it something he allegedly said? One contradicts the other, fella.

[Leyton388]

Bobby's boss.
The bitters are ****
Now they can **** off back to their pit.

It's clear he said something. I said that it was allegedly in Portuguese that he said the word.

Anyway, I'm out of this and said what I think.

It looks like Holgate is claiming Firmino used the N-word. Presumably this is what is to be investigated after the match.

[Kenneth]

Cant see that, the push happens when Bobby has his back to Holgate and is shepherding the ball out

Yes, before that.

[Resu]

To me it looked like the ref saved him from a ban. Had the first person getting there been a blue there would have been bans galore. I was suprised no cards were given. I would not reacted if a yellow was given to both. So I actually thought the ref handled it well.

[Lecter]

Yes, before that.

Nah don't think so

There's a shoulder charge before that and then he's sheperding the ball out and he pushes him. The reaction from Holgate is when Firmino confronts him and the referee is between them

My bluenose mate reckons Holgate lost it when the penalty was given and that's what's riled him and he didn't see anything racist in the Firmino comment in fact he said himself that he thought Firmino had called him "puta" which is son of a bitch I believe

What are you talking about? Have you never seen two blokes square up in your entire life? As if Firmino was definitely going to go for the running headbutt or such like.
