BigAl Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Take it, pull him aside and tell him to go away and have a think about this long and hard before he comes back for pre season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_widdows Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Dundee players spent the entire bonetti tenure that Cannigias debut springs to mind as possibly the most angry ive ever been at a football match Also did brown not claim he would sub the player immedietly? Will he also pull said player off and reduce his team down to 10 if hes already made 3 subs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloo_toon_red Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I hope he contests the ban. If he doesn't, his name is tarnished and he admits he's a cheat. If he does it will prove my own thoughts that contact was indeed made and it was a legitimate penalty. I'm going to support my team's player until proven otherwise.

Stewart Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Contact has nothing to do with it though does it? Needs dealt with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloo_toon_red Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Contact has nothing to do with it though does it? As the absolute most basic principle of foul play, contact has everything to do with it. Quite simply if he was fouled, which to me it looked like he was, it was a penalty, regardless of how he fell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I've only seen it the once. But my thoughts were that he was going down before he even reached the defender's out stretched leg. But had he kept going he would have undoubtedly have been brought down by said leg. So it would have been a penalty anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDU_64 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It was a dive. Clear as day. Pawlett needs to get that sorted out very fucking quickly as he already has a catalogue of dives in his repetoire. As much as I don't care about Dundee and think that Brown is one of the mankiest cunts around, for a team to be relegated by a dive is a bit shocking IMO. I see Dundee are now 'pleading' with Brown to stay. I've never LOL'd so much. Not a ghoster is he quitting as it will be only his source of income for a considerable number of years. No other club in the SPL anyway will ever take him on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other club in the SPL anyway will ever take him on. I'm seeing this all over the place. They weren't relegated by a dive. They were relegated by the awful results they amassed for most of the season. They're going doon because they deserve to go doon. Not because Pawlett hit the deck early. FTR the record I still think it's obviously that Pawlett would have drawn the foul and the penalty if he'd stayed on his feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloo_toon_red Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It was clearly a dive. It was clearly a rash challenge from Toshney, making contact & impeding Pawlett's movement. So, both and therefore dubiety. Nobody's right and nobody's wrong. So why even bother with the 2 match ban? The whole situation stinks. There was a dive at the other end that wasn't dealt with yet because the ref makes a "mistake", Aberdeen FC and Peter Pawlett get punished. If Pawlett had been punished on the day, it'd be a yellow card and that's the end of it. Clubs and players being disproportionately punished for referees' mistakes is categorically fucked up.

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 He didn't stay on his feet. Contact means what exactly though? The right to flop theatrically to the deck? No, no it doesn't. I'd agree the chances are he'd have drawn a foul had he stayed on his feet, but he didn't. Mr Lunny is doing his cunt credentials no harm though.

There was no contact other than a graze on Pawlett's leg hair. It didn't impede Pawlett's movement whatsoever, the ball was going out of play so he threw himself to the floor and got lucky that he conned the ref.
