Deanburn Dave Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 Is there any footage of the tackle? I hope the boy recovers quickly but going by what’s posted he was taken out going down the touch line. Happens a fair amount of times and a yellow as not a goal scoring opportunity. Getting a bad injury doesn’t make it a red. Nobody has suggested it was a goalscoring opportunity or that a bad injury makes it a red card. Zander had beat one player knocked it past the second down the line and the defender lunged in nowhere near the ball and wiped him out. A clear case of serious foul play. Straight red all day long. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arse. 18 hours ago, Deanburn Dave said: Miller had the ball out wide and had beaten one man, knocked it down the line and the Wick centrehalf lunged in with the ball well away. Red card all day long IMO. Referee instantly pulled out a yellow card. Disgusting decision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Forbes Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 As a Kelty fan my wish is that your player makes a full recovery and gets back playing again as soon as possible, after whst was a horrific and unnecessary "challenge" by a player who should never be allowed to step onto a football pitch again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting a bad injury doesn’t make it a red. It is one of the factors ta referee is supposed to consider. Extracts from the Laws of the Game: "Using excessive force is when a player exceeds the necessary use of force and/or endangers the safety of an opponent and must be sent off" "A tackle or challenge that endangers the safety of an opponent or uses excessive force or brutality must be sanctioned as serious foul play" "Serious foul play A tackle or challenge for the ball that endangers the safety of an opponent or uses excessive force or brutality; punishable by a sending-off (red card)" Edited September 26, 2021 by Footballfirst 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karate kid Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Wick number 5 ran from his starting position on edge of 18 yard box with the intention of taking zander out, he was still angry after losing the 4th goal, not sure he would have liked the outcome but none the less it was an act of intent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 Wick number 5 was their captain Danny Mackay . Name and shame this offender. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some leader they have there, hopefully "work commitments" keep him away on Tuesday or he'll be getting rightly deserved pelters 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right well whoever is responsible for the highlights best not spare the cretin that crocked Zander and ensure the horrendous tackle is left I the highlights to shame their no5, the ref and the linesman. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde01 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Leaves a bad taste in the mouth that Wick have basically saved themselves from elimination and have another crack at progression due to an act of thuggery. I’m not saying the No5 meant for that severe an injury but that’s the risk when you take a player out as recklessly as he did. He gets to take the field again on Tuesday whilst Bo’ness have to do it all again without one of their best attacking players. Doesn’t seem right to me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyBear Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 The lack of updates and "highlights" is a tad worrying. Fingers crossed Zander is ok ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t seem right that this ‘ thug ‘ - and I don’t give a toss if he’s a nice guy away from the game - gets to play in the replay. It leaves a really bad taste in the mouth that officials get away with a total lack of ability in this situation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
