    Am I right in thinking, though Chopper Harris did play, it was actually Eddie McCreadie that crunched Welbourne out of the game?

    Happened right in front of me and my Dad - thought my memory might be playing tricks though........

    These young whippersnappers haven't seen a tackle until they've seen that clash - studs up from both players but only one footed.

    The ground shook (and I mean the stands).......

    I see that Chelsea have issued an apology about the behaviour of some of their supporters who were unable to keep quiet for a whole minute. Just what is it with some people, probably a small number, who think that they can behave as they want and ignore other peoples sense of fair play?

    I trust that an apology is not thought to be good enough. I am never too sure how a club is supposed to control their fans, but this is bringing the game into disrepute.

    i can't see how they can do much more, though in an ideal world, those fans wouldn't be allowed to go to at least away games again. There are many things that are currently bringing the game into disrepute...it's very sad to see the way it's going. Respect in all areas is going out the window...

    haha. I bet it wont last long. Although if you could get rid of the PM's and just have the same system as with the tags it might be a good idea. Although, some might see it as another step towards facebook.

    I think the standard (or lack of) is also bringing the game into disrepute ,it seems real reffing howlers are being committed each weekend , even the supposed best refs in the EPL are struggling .
    The question is are they getting worse, is the system ie the rules flawed? Is the refereeing education to a high enough standard?
