Perfectly fair challenge. If anything then I'd expect the Gunt to get booked for headbutting the poor Livi players' foot.

Like you I support neither Livi nor the gunts so I feel able to give an unbiased opinion on the tackle. I agree with you that it was a perfectly fair challenge. After all, the painter meted out rougher treatment than that at the final [that never was] and got away with it consistently.
 
Nicholson's no different from all the other 'Charity Thieves FC' players throughout the years - they go down more often than the world's most-busiest w*ore !!
 
Joking apart, that is one disgraceful tackle. Well, it's not even a tackle is it?

When you see players getting sent off these days for even showing their studs, you have to wonder about the refs thoughts as to why it isn't a red. Fair enough this time it's only a gunt, but next time it could be a proper human .
 
The player went for the ball and missed.

Bad tackle in the end and the gunt has came away with some nasty injuries

You're right on both points. It is irresponsible recklessness from a crap "football player". If this is the standard of player at Livi, it is no wonder they are in the position they are in. Talbot should be playing Sunday pub league football. At least there he would get sorted out where the players police themselves.
 
Regardless of how bad it was, he got a yellow card for it.
So how can the compliance officer charge him?
If the ref deals with it then that is supposed to be it.
It's what happened when Boyd blatantly elbowed Zemmama and got away with it as ref dealt with it, he got a talking to!
 
I have watched that tackle over and over. Must be nearly 500 times and I still cant see anything wrong with it. :approve:
