It's the pathetic sh*t we are all use to. Had a strong feeling nothing would happen about that.

It was dangerous play, FML. (I know we agree on this, I'm just venting.) Isn't there something in the laws of the game about that?

"The ref missed it and no action was taken, but deliberate or not it was surely violent conduct? It was at best clumsy from Mings who issued an apology to the Royals man. Judge for yourself.

What is hard to ignore is that Mings has history with a similar incident when his foot made contact with Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s head during Bournemouth’s 1-1 draw with Manchester United in 2017.

The FA will surely be looking into the matter further and their judgement could be swayed by the previous incident.

Verdict: Incorrect decision"

Yup, by the law of the game, the fact this hasn't been looked back on and punished is sickening and disgusting.

I expected it though. That's yet another sad part to this horrific story.

Ex Norwich player, done by an Ex-Ipswich player with a history of stamping violently on players.

The video show's so obviously, so many reasons that wasn't an accident. It was unnatural and he shoved his foot down with rage.

French club Nantes have demanded payment from Cardiff City over the £15m transfer of Emiliano Sala,
Sala, along with pilot David Ibbotson, was on board the Piper Malibu N264DB which lost radar contact near Guernsey on 21 January.
The Argentine striker, 28, was Premier League club Cardiff's record signing.
Cardiff have withheld the first scheduled payment until they are satisfied with the documentatin
It is understood Nantes are threatening legal action if they do not receive a payment .

Can you ****ing believe this!!!

I believe Nantes is in financial difficulties and are relying on the payment in order to pay wages, however, these dealings should have been dealt with in private!

Read that earlier.

I was wondering where both clubs stand.

But they haven't even confirmed/found his body yet. It's just horrifically cold.

It is a really bad move by Nancy. They are going to come out of this so bad, publicity wise. I don't understand why they are pushing this so quickly. Financial trouble or not. The window is closed. They will probably get insurance at the very least. It's a horrendous move by the club, and so insensitive.

Jesus Christ the Refereeing in the Brighton Vs Burnley game was an embarrassment.

Such a clear and blatant hand ball. The worst hand ball I have seen for a long time. Seconds later, gives Burnley a Pen for what really didn't look like one. The keeper came out, barely touched him, I don't think it was even a challenge. Just went near the striker. Pathetic.

Didn't hear Dyche whinging about penalty decisions this week for the first time all season.
