Having seen it for the first time, absolutely agree with Mr Quids. If you are attacked, which he was, then you are enitled to take a little revenge. Live by the sword and die by the sword.


As for my bet. Spurs on the drift from 22 to 32....long way to go though.

I, too, agree with Master Quids and cannot help but sympathise with the goalkeeper. There but for the grace of God...


But then - presumably - there is the issue of reasonable/unreasonable force (he was wearing studs) etc...


Still, the red card has since been rescinded.

Oh, I'm not disagreeing and also feel it was deserved, after all, he could have been some psycho with a knife or whatever and I would have the same response if someone was walking towards me like that ... just think the ref thought it was excessive force. Also liked that the team walked off the pitch in response.

Yes thank god for that!!! I was starting to panick about how the heck I would find a parking space.

Had to look this one up out of pure curiosity. Presumably the referee was relying on one (or more) of these rules, Mr. Medic.


A player, substitute or substituted player is sent off and shown the red

card if he commits any of the following seven offences:

1. is guilty of serious foul play

2. is guilty of violent conduct...

...6. uses offensive or insulting or abusive language and/or gestures.


I am really surprised at how broad and unspecific these rules are. What, for example constitutes "serious foul play"? I didn't find a "definitions' section".

So what was the keeper supposed to do? Wait to get assaulted before he defends himslef. Thankfully it appears common sense has prevailed and the red card has been rescinded.

Look no further than Roy Keane's "foul" on Alf Hinge Haaland.

This episode was disgraceful quite how he escaped legal proceedings is beyond me. And before anybody says anything, It's not just because he was a united player, its just unforgiveable. Full stop.

    • Defo, where are you based so I can collect?
    • There is no other way than to move out. I am in such a situation myself where our neighbours are complete assholes. They breached the Covenants and when we pointed it they said to take them to court if we want.  Unfortunately, they have made our life miserable and we have to move out.    What helped in our situation is having a calm conversation face to face. It only happened after they tasted their own medicine(i know it's mean but nothing else helps).   I know it's unfair but better move out and prioritise your mental health. 
    • Thank you so much for the reply. Jeffery turned up a couple of hours ago. I edited title to say found but somehow it didn't save. Thank you so much for going to the trouble of posting this sighting... even if it didn't turn out to be Jeff.  Jeff came running down the street like a bat out of hell and ran into the house. Never been so relieved. Mind you i've been up and down the roads shouting his name out all day. Even in Wingfield street. 🤗
    • I saw a smallish black cat outside 1 Wingfield Street just now.  I am not convinced it was Jeff, the eyes look a little different.
