Greedo Posted April 28, 2022 Report Share Posted April 28, 2022 disappointed in the half hearted reaction of our players other than Williams tbf. Can imagine Flint and Pack would’ve sorted it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for the initial contact, but he did dump the guy on the ground once they were over the hoardings. Think a yellow each was fair from the ref. A fine is ridiculous though, barely an incident, certainly not a "melee" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others said, certainly initially but I think if you watch it back you'll see Bentley held on to him after and then sort of dumped him (or tried to) Handbags though really, hardly worth even investigating - both laughed it off, accepted their punishment and there was no further issues between the two 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This 100% Can the clubs appeal, and bring in a load of video evidence to support it and simply say "what about this one", "what about this", "what about this shocking challenge that led to......"?? An absolute disgrace to get fined for this, and I'd hope both clubs have a go back at the FA for obvious double standards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it was certainly I’ll pull you a bit and you pull me a bit. Both players had opportunity to end it sooner than they did but obviously neither wanted to be the one to back down. They were both almost laughing at eachother and daring eachother to make the next move during the initial contact. I think to the rest of the players it looked worse than it was at a distance and it all kicked off when they steamed in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norn Iron Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 It happened right in front of us. At one stage it was more like a Tango. However, when you watch the replay it could have been a lot worse with at least one of them landing on their head when falling over the advertising screen.
