Beauchief Owl Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 So you think it was a foul so you cheerfully high five with your opponent, absolutely not acceptable even accepting Odubajo's version. Mind you his judgement when playing has often been poor. A liability IMO. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturutter Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 These are the things that Odubajo is guilty of: Being crap at defending Having brainless moments Not appealing to the ref Not rushing to restart the game Not going to our injured player Failing to get into a pumped up game mindset, partly through his own fault and partly through there being no crowd Even though this next list is much shorter, we've got to give some kind of fairness to him by giving him a fair "trial" This is the thing Odubajo is NOT guilty of: Thinking that the goal would be given, and genuinely celebrating that with his opponent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They include Van Aken booting someone in the air, Windass booting someone in the head, Shaw trying to remove someones leg etc etc. Strange none of those things did us any good at all - in fact, I seem to recall the red cards that followed being relatively unhelpful. Yes but none of the opposing players high-fived our guys as they left the pitch, did they? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine Roy Keane seeing that! Ive played against mates many times, but winning was all important to me, 100%. His behaviour wreaks of submission and weakness and just isn’t acceptable. As for the new regime, it’s time for them to go. There has been a dramatic drop off in both results and performances and the players are all shot. Go and get big Sam.

Exactly We know he didn’t high five him purposefully ffs Its about the joking about, patting on the back, and what that signifies about the culture of the club That sort of thing doesn’t go on, full stop.

What is more embarrassing was having no shots in the second half. Never been a foul Lees failed to deal with the situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means the opposition are your enemy, not a bessie. Grrrrrr 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
