Just go back and read the FAs description of foul play that I already posted. It's all there. Unlike Big Turd.
You should be asking PJ that question, not me. He reckons his actions were not 'malicious ' (even though that's not what the FAs Rule 12 say they have to be to be serious foul play) even though, apparently, he wasn't going for the ball. But I'm sure he'll explain, with actual reference to Rule 12 and not rules and standards hes just made up.
like back in the day when we were kids and you wd just twist someone’s name up because they’ve pissed you off 5/6 year age group Bantz at tops
Jesus tonight "nobody else" ? Try harder feller. Every commentator from ex refs to even ex Blues like Tim Cahill saw it and said so. Really? Are we doing Faslane again?
Have you actually seen it? He went for the ball with his left foot (VvD did the same with his right), his leg wasn't straight and his studs were pointing down, he also had his short arms outstretched to protect his goal. VvD got the ball first with a stretched leg (no studs showing) and Pickford collided with him. Unfortunate football occurrence but in no way unique or intentional. Still, if you believe he deliberately meant to take a man out in his area and give away a penalty (no off-side given at the time) plus get a red card i can only believe you are a bit thick or totally biased.
This makes me think... Is the man who needs weak help weaker than the man who needs strong help. Sucky 2020
