Red card challenge on knockaert...

[Mellotron]

So....Barnes got what, TEN games for tripping a ref? By that logic this guy should be banned for the season.

going by the picture on Beeb, its about 10" too high as well as late. i usually dont think a professional would intend to harm their opponent, in this case i cant see how he wasnt.

You can see the malice on the 's face. This won't be the last time that he receives a straight red.

Dreadful challenge could have been career ending .

In my opinion the defender premeditated clattering Knocky, when the ball is played wide he is closer to the ball than Knocky. He then looks at Knocky and from then on his focus is on Stopping Knocky and not getting the ball.

After getting home I was chatting to my neighbour and his dad, both Watford fans.
Both genuinely embarrassed at that tackle, and is not the first time Britos has done this!!

Just glad Knocky walked away from that.

Britos is a ****ing animal.

Britos is a ****ing animal.

Some footballers might consider that a positive.
I'd rather call him a f*****g t*at!

Simply appalling. Surely, additional games suspension.

Crooks said he hadn't seen a challenge like it in 40 years. One of the worst I've ever seen. Hopefully it won't just be a three game ban. It could easily have ended Knocky's career.

Definitely, to remove our main threat.

An assault from the past. Scum.

I was chatting on Whatsapp with a Watford supporting mate who wasn't watching the game. When I told him red card for Britos for a disgusting tackle his immediate response was "He's a lunger". Definitely has form and worthy of a 10 match ban.

The FA can impose more. Ben Thatcher got 8 for this assault:



But you can bet there'll be toothless and stick to the 3.

 

[pb21]

He seems surprised to be sent off, what a ****.
