The TSN commentor was hugely critical of Richarlison, even whilst we were playing on he was basically saying 'nothing wrong with him, big baby, bet he'll get up and be right as rain'. And when he did, and challenged for the next ball, the commentor basically said he was glad we had played on. Don't know who it was, but good on him.

Yes sorry I meant after the game in the north watching the highlights... I’m WSU and that Solly song at the time was deafening!

I've seen a few skillz highlights from the game, that weren't on MotD, but I've not seen this incident since.
Does anybody have access to it, I'd love to not only see it again, but more so hear it (if poss)

If Brighton and a couple of other teams started to play to the whistle all the time, teams would soon understand that rolling around on the floor like some spoilt brat in a supermarket being denied treats, would actually put them at a disadvantage and perhaps we would see the over the top play acting start to diminish. Refs booking players who make a sudden miraculous recovery from "serious" injury almost the second the ball has been kicked out of play would help as well.

Cheers. Will try on my laptop.
Those sites usually keep the pop up overlayed until you've clicked on it a certain number of times. This one will only let you click "deny" after trying about 5 times so you just need to accept you're going to get 5 new tabs/pop ups before you can watch the video.

It was only after watching that replay that I realised Richarlison carried on running until he realised he had lost the ball, threw his arms up, and went down 'injured' 
I see he’s up to his old tricks again (vs Leicester) - Leicester also chose to play on whilst Richarlison was writhing around in agony! Although eventually they did kick it out as the boos got louder... would have loved it if they had done a Solly on them again!
PS for those of you not watching you will be relieved to hear that he wasn’t seriously hurt and managed to get back on the pitch (again)

Solly said that he didn't think he was really injured. Players know.
Hughton told The Argus: "We have got a really good and honest group of players. If any of them felt it was a bad injury the ball would have gone out.
No! The rules and guidelines are quite clear; it is the REFEREE'S responsibility to immediately stop play if he believes a player is seriously injured. It is NOT the responsibility of the players. Play to the bloody whistle!!

About 5 years ago (maybe 10) there was a convention in the premier league that only the referee would stop play in the event of injury - this was agreed by all teams at the start of the season. This really worked, but only seemed to be in place for one season.
Does anybody else remember this, or did I imagine it?
