Neither did anybody else, apart from Thorniley himself. In the five seconds between the injury and the ball hitting the back of our net, there's no way the ref could've known the severity of the injury. It did look serious as it happened. The ref and lino would have been watching as Jordon went flying in. , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I will give a young player a bit more leaway in their performances but it can only go so far. You don't get any more points because you play a few youngsters. Might be good in the long run if some players get a bit of stick early on, see if they have mentality you need to play at a big club like Wednesday.

tarn owl Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 People feel they can just be negative and when that player turns out not to be a Wednesday legend (99% aren't) they can say they said so. Most youngsters won't make it, but you have to give them a chance, most players we buy don't work, but we get excited when they sign and give them a bedding in period. All these youngsters need more and more experience and they will be an asset for our club on the whole. Jos is doing the right things with the academy and long may it continue. We have had promising keepers, defenders and midfielders from the academy now under Jos, if only there was a promising striker too......................

Nobody saw the contact with his head, and then he rolled around with his hands covering his face. The cleaner in our office has a Millwall ST right behind where the linesman was and he told me this morning that it was some time before people down there realised it was something head-related. In a sport where players regularly roll about on the ground to con the officials, you're honestly expecting the ref to have made a definite judgement on the severity of the injury and decide to stop the game in under five seconds? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was clear he took a boot to face, so yes i am expecting the ref or lino to make a judgement call within the 5 seconds. How many rash tackles do you not see nowadays, where the ref immediately blows the whistle. It happens all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say that nobody saw a thing. I said nobody saw - within those five seconds - that it was a "boot to the face". If they had done, play would've been stopped. Are you suggesting that the referee and his assistant both saw that it was a serious head injury and just decided to play on anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
