Fact of life tho isnt it, law of the playground. People get picked on every day for physical differences, footballer or not.
Sunderland V Everton, Webb is 5 yards away staring at the incident and still gives a penalty when video footage showes it definitley isn't. Cabaye should have been red carded, Colo's looked nasty cos of the blood but wasn't malicious, more of an accident.
Hahaha spearing just looks wrong must have been living in a bin until he was found at about 16 years of age.
No it wasn't. The fact you saw Colo's leg flex in that challenge says it all. He was extremely lucky to come out of that unscathed.
So the L'pool players leg didn't flex, did it not? Had Cabaye been any bigger the leg would have snapped entirely. Its not as easy to see but it does. Despite being 'planted' Colos momentum was easily dispersed, but Cabaye was on coming down on his leg. However this shouldn't even be an issue as Tiote jumping in arm flailing all over should have in itself seen a card only a second earlier.
No matter how this thread works out, I thought Bellemy had a class game, shame he had to go off. but maybe just as well for Newcastle, as Im sure the match ball for his mantlepiece would have been well recieved in the toon
You are taking the piss. He didnt jump, he didn't stamp, he went for the ball just like Spearing did but Spearing got there first, both had studs up.
Cabaye's tackle I think was unintentional in the moment but I agree it was dangerous. Could definitely have seen red. I think we all know there was nothing in the Coloccini incident, just one of these things, he's really not that type of man or player.

Sorry, who is taking the piss? I wouldn't say it was a stamp, but he certainly had both feet off the ground. He was clearly trying to protect himself and by doing so raised his studs after the opportunity to get the ball had gone. It was bad on Spearings part as well, but he cleanly won the ball. I am by no means criticising Cabaye for it as these things are liable to happen. But because he didn't win the ball that means he was late to the tackle and therefore culpable for any foul as his momentum inevitably took him into Spearing. The reverse would be true had Cabaye got the ball only for Spearing to crash into him.
