g-owls Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Clear the ball, momentum takes you over the hoardings, get pushed by an idiot in the stand. Can someone tell me what the Aberdeen player did wrong here? https://twitter.com/scotlandsky/status/1462161474001022983?s=21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitechapel Owl Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Pathetic from the ref. Just noticed a different Dundee fan throwing chips at him as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latemodelchild Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Does my head in when hypocrisy like this is laid bare. Fans shout all kinds of abuse, throw stuff and generally behave in a way that would get you slotted on the streets towards players. The slightest bit back and the players get punished and the fans cry. I assume he's been given the yellow for being as close to the fans as he would have been if he'd scored and celebrated with them. (his own teams fans obvs) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helmut_rooster Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Get assaulted by a fan and gets sent off? The should have walked off the pitch and told the ref to bōllox. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after he was physically assaulted he went towards his attacker and got close to the other fans. A yellow was letting him off lightly if you ask me. Anything could have happened, he could have been carrying a knife in his sock. Or a gun. Or a syringe filled with a deadly serum that would finish the job that Covid-19 started on humanity. Straight red for me, hopefully the refs assessor saw it all and punishes the ref properly. Make him ref in a league 1 game, probably Tuesday night in Sheffield somewhere, let him know he did wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Malc Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 The absolute jebend in the crowd should be banned for life 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know the technicalities of the law on this but surely you can't just shove someone like that with no provocation. OK, nobody was hurt etc, but is that necessary for it to be assault? If I walked up to Boris Johnson and shoved him like that would I be charged? Or Priti Patel? ? Or a famous singer just out and about shopping? Or a random bloke in the street? Or a random woman in the street? Basically what I'm saying is does it matter who I do it to? And don't worry, I'm not gonna do it, I'm a proper wuss who'd be scared of getting shoved back.

Kopparberg Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 Ridiculous. Surely the club with act against the ‘fan’ in the stand, acting the hard man. The momentum didn’t even take the player that close to him. Wish the footballer had pushed him back. And in general - I hate to see any of these absolute helmet fans thinking they’d even be able to win a physical battle (fight?) with a professional athlete. Absolutely embarrassing. I’d love to see this kid push Zlatan and get a Jean- Claude Van Damme type spin kick. Also. The ref is just a rule following dork - scared of his accessors or whatever instead of dealing with the reality of a unique situation.

Adem Poric Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 The lad who pushed him should get a league wide banning order. What a whopper. Not sure why anyone is surprised the ref booked him. They are pretty much all morons who have no idea what they are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haribos are generally quite popular. Sheffield United are the raisin in the bag of Revels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
