Josh Magennis - Self-Confessed Cheat


Recommended Posts

If a striker is bumped in the box, loses balance and misses a chance then the referees don't give a shit. What on earth is the incentive to stay on your feet?

Exactly. If Magennis goes down, gets a penalty and we then win the game - then the players will stand to get a win bonus which would come in handy.

Oh... Wait...

Magennis didn't say that though - he said if he feels any contact, light or heavy.

In the contact sport that is football, yes. Are you suggesting that any contact should be penalised?

No, but if a defender makes contact with a player in the area then most likely the player has mistimed what they're trying to do. If you take advantage of that, then is there really much of an issue?

I might need to listen to the podcast back again, 'cos I'm interested to find out if he did use the word "any".
