MOTD showed a closeup of the Watfud players sock.
I admit that the tackle looked innocuous until the tear in the sock was shown.
That may have been what persuaded the ref to show the red card

doubt it. he had that card out before he was near enough, and i don't know whether that was what caused the rip anyway.
 
Sock was in pristine condition immediately before the foot contacted his leg so how was it ripped?

Maybe one for the Conspiracy Thread.

did we see it torn after the challenge or after the match? either way, it had enough pad behind it to fend off a nail bomb.
 
Maybe this should go on the conspiracy theory thread.... BUT.... kit man, if you're listening/reading <laugh>... send whoever is in midfield out with a rip in their socks and when we get a seemingly innocuous tackle, get Marco to teach the players to scream loudly and hold the area of the rip, whether thats where they've been kicked or not..

Actually that would then put this on the Cheating Players thread too..

Plain and simple...the FA/refs don't want us to stay in the prem....The FA want Swansea to stay up so there is a none English team in the league and its just not an English league..

Perhaps he came onto the field with a rip in the sock...Who said it was torn by the Niasse 'challenge' ?
