    They probably could've phrased that last part a bit better.
    "For doping purposes"? They almost certainly mean for testing by the official bodies, but...

    I'm sorry, but **** that manager. He deliberately moves into the way and gets pushed out of it.
    Totally caused the whole thing and should get punished as much as the player does.

    The **** you on about?
    The guy barely moves.
    The player had acres of space either side of the manager to run into <laugh>

    The ball's going past the manager on his left and he walks across until it goes to his right, then steps back across to obstuct the player.
    There's absolutely no reason for him to be moving away from where the game is being played, which is down the other end.
    It's utterly blatant.

    Yeah he's manufactured contact then gone down theatrically. Complete dive. But the player was a moron to fall for it and give the ref a decision to make.

    Yeah he knows what he's doing but I don't think that means the player can completely take him out with his arm/shoulder.

    Player got a six match ban, apparently. Seems a bit excessive.

    What's it come to when this type of mentality is at the fore?
    Talk about mental frailty!

    Would you rather, as (presumably) a white male, be called a "White trash honkey" to your face?
    Or
    Take a swift right hook to the jaw?

    Because I would be Honkeying it up all night long if given that choice!
    Whatever happened to sticks and stones?

    A Lot of fuss over nothing, hand bags at best. Makes for a few minutes of amusement then player and manager shake hands at the end. Move on, nothing else to see here.

    Being called a white trash honky is laughable as a white bloke. It's not a comparable situation.
    The same applies to similar insults about straight people when compared to gay insults and slurs.

    I think his point was is calling a chinaman a chink worse or giving him a fist to the face.

    I know id take the slurs all day long compared to the latter
