Moses, I think Coyle could have highlighted the minimal contact and the pathetic dive to the floor. I don't think that's too much to ask for from your manager?

It was a sending off, it was soft but if it had happened to us, would we be calling for him to be off?

As I said, we don't want Coyle banned and if possible, we should try to appeal but saying stuff in the press could be worse than us not.

I would have expected some reference to the fact that the lad went down so easily.

There's no need to take it to such extremes.

Can you imagine 'Arry or Fergie so blatantly not supporting their player?

Coyle said hes only going off what he saw in 'real time', from were he was all he saw was probably Klasnic leaning in and their player going down without knowing the amount of contact - I honestly don't know whats wrong with that.

You replied to CC as I was typing.

I've never said it wasn't a sending off. Just that the lad was...'simulating' to put it nicely.

Vera, in my comment above, I have said that Coyle has said that all he saw was the leaning in and the player going down, not how much contact there was.

If you want Coyle to go shouting his mouth off when he doesn't know the full facts - fair enough but its the easiest way to get yourself in trouble with the FA.

Coyle avoids upsetting our players, opposition managers and referees. This is constant and known throughout football...

Question..

Does this work for us or against us?

These are the small things that BSA would consider and work on, especially if he thought it would get us an extra point or two a season...

Just an observation..

Petrov, you really make me smile but not in a good way. Did you stop and rerad the fixtuire list?

I will take a little side bet with you, 50 GBP that we will survive this season and still be in the Prem. Will you take it? A serious offer.

Owen's motto seems to be ' the Meek shall inherit the Earth ...Er ...if that's alright with everyone else, of course ...'
Perhaps he needs to be a bit more ' Windsor Davies ' than ' Don Estelle ' on TV .....and importantly, in the changing rooms/ on the training ground too!

Petrov. I thought not.
