Monroe Transfer 0 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 No punishment for McManaman, because an assistant ref saw the incident, but not "the full extent" of it. Laughable, genuinely laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7214 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Former FA Compliance Officer on Sky Sports slating the FA now and saying that they just make the rules up as they go along. Indeed. There is absolutely no doubt that this would have been handled differently if this was a Joey Barton on Wayne Rooney 'tackle'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I would say he has had a hyper extension of the knee, which would of damaged the ligaments to some degree, same thing happened to me many years ago and I was in plaster for 6 weeks, mind you the treatment of knee injuries is far superior than it was back in the early 80's.

Brock Manson 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Could the fact the lunge was fairly dead-on lessen the impact on the ligaments? I mean the nastiest ligament injuries you tend to see in the game come from tackles/the knee shifting to the side. If it's just bad bruising then Haidara is incredibly lucky. Really, really hope that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotty84 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I heard Barnes talking last night and was screaming at the radio. Like Whealen, he kept on saying it was a fair challenge and he won the ball. They must have watched a completely different tackle in that case. If you can stomach to watch it again.... 1 - Studs are up / showing when the player makes the tackle - is this not an automatic yellow regardless of winning the ball? 2 - HE DOESNT WILL THE F*CKING BALL, BARNES - it comes off Haidara's left shin and hits the c*nts left boot (NOT THE CHALLENGING FOOT) AFTER he plants his studs into Hairdara's knee. I seriously can't see how people are saying he wins the ball, regardless of all the shit that has came out afterwards from the FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnes truly is a moron of the highest order. That sort of tackle takes place 50 or 60 times a day? Yes John, that's why the whole country is talking about it! Bellend!

donaldstott 0 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I seriously can't see how people are saying he wins the ball, regardless of all the shit that has came out afterwards from the FA. He does graze the top of the ball with his right foot and you can see a slight change of direction in the ball. Regardless, the rules state: “Using excessive force” means that the player has far exceeded the necessary use of force and is in danger of injuring his opponent. • A player who uses excessive force must be sent off" "But I won the ball ref" doesn't really come in to it anymore.

Kid Dynamite 6964 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 I reckon he's just tweaked his knee ligaments and will be fit in a week or two. The club are keeping quiet until McManaman is banned Announced he should be fit around Fulham on 6/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
