Some might say the striker was leading with his arm

If that's a challenge between two outfield players there'd be little said tbh.

 

He definitely wasn’t mind he was trying to take the ball on his chest, I don’t even think he was looking at the keeper. His arms probably came across because he’s just been bodied Shocking challenge imo.

 

Another circus club like are nearest and dearest..

 

Its a mistimed challenge but thats it, hes turned his body to protect himself - its just a shame that the player has ended up with a bad injury

 

It’s a crap challenge mind.

I think people would be raging if it was against us.

 

Agree with this 100% the red and white specs here are blinding. The fact Bishop is said to be heading here and Parky is involved and had some words to say about Bishop seems to have blinded people.

As I said in my post striker is watching the ball all the way and leaves his side completely exposed. He isn't really watching the keeper. Bishop on the other hand seems to watch the striker most the way and makes no attempt to jump for the balls and clatters into the landing leading with his shoulder into his ribs!

And in complete contrast to what Smug has said I think only a keeper can get away with making that kind of challenge (leading with body weight into someone unprotected side without any real challenge on the ball). Anyone else on the pitch is off and a lot more agree with Parky.

 

tbh, I couldn't give a ****.....

 

Yeah it's mistimed that's why he is there bit it's terrible even mistimed. He isn't really watching the ball, has no hope of getting it and absolutely clatters into the player with one the hardest parts of his body into the blokes weakest.

I'd say that makes it a terrible challenge.

 

Haven't you just had a power cut at home which means you need to head to the office after all,and therefore will be able to make the function? You can't leave important matters in the hands of others!

 

Noted, not too sure what about but ...

 

Thats your opinion mate, and ive given mine

Lets not have the transfer thread be all about a tackle today as its been thrown off track a few times last few days

 

Hahaha considering tripping a fuse!

 

Parkinson needs to stop bashing the Bishop and leave the poor young lad alone.

 

Always knew he was a wrongin

 

More Fishpaste doom and gloom

 

Can’t be good

 

Doesn’t sound good at all, that

 

Attention seeker. In reality he's never popular any day

 

That tweet has annoyed me. Surely as a fellow Sunderland fan you wouldn’t put a tweet out and allow the fanbase to go into meltdown. Just release the article and be done with it.
