Tractor shaggers match thread

Recommended Posts

I’ve seen a vlog that an Ipswich fan did high in the stand behind where the pen was given and the part when Johnson fouls there lad looks completely a non incident. There lad is pulling Johnson back from going to the ball Johnson shrugs him/ pushes him away without taking his eye off the ball and their lad goes down like he’s been polaxed, in what I can only described as trying to make something out of nothing. 
The fact they took so long over it suggests they weren’t sure and probably couldn’t figure out which of our players actually committed the foul, which might be the problem for us. However, if the EFL decide they can use home fans footage of incidents that seems to me like a very slippery slope to head down - given the ability of people to manipulate videos these days.

So, shouldn’t have been a pen because it was an Ipswich player being a drama queen and trying to make something from nothing and if Johnson is retrospectively banned the club need to push back big time, which on recent form would seem likely.

The person who would have made the biggest difference would have been Malik Wilks. Because he drifts wide, he would have occupied one of the Ipswich wide players. Our lack of attacking options on the bench hurt us a bit.

Absolutely agree with the last bit.  First time I've missed Wilks!  

We could be very short of players for next week or two, especially if we get shit over Johnson.  Might have to use young 'uns off the bench. 

What was the point of Shipston and Fusire being on the bench if they weren't an option to be used? Fusire could have played the Wilks role and with a confidence born out of youth and a good performance at Fleetwood. We could have even thrown Brown further forward (as we did at points last season) to inject some pace and push one of full backs back. We didn't do either

Or we could be fine as James and Gregory likely back Tuesday.

I’d agree, from what DM said post match they should be in contention but equally I can see him being careful with them and anyone else that is teetering on the edge of fatigue or an injury.

Yes we want to put our strongest team out on the pitch but losing a player for one games is better than losing them for the season. The next two games would be easier to accommodate a player that’s not a first choice player compared to when we play the dingles and Notlob.

And as for time wasting. How many years have we witnessed other teams doing it to us?

 

BTW, it's game management and thank fuck we're finally mastering it.

 

Well, it's game management when we're doing it. Time wasting if ...

If it's passing from full back to centre back to full back and repeat and repeat, or keeping it in the corner: it's game management. As is kicking it into row Z.

If it's feigning injury or taking 30 seconds over a goal kick: that's time wasting. I don't think we do a lot of the later, especially in the absence of Stockdale and Paterson.

There’s a video clip on the WTID twitter which shows the penalty incident. Johnson looks to elbow the Ipswich player but it looks like it’s more like in his ribs, not in his face and it’s more like a shrug their player off. So it could be argued a pen was warranted if a player pushing someone off that is trying to grab you. Bloody officials.

My only comment on that is Vaulks got a stupid yellow before HT doing said game management. 

With both him and then Byers on yellows from early on in the 2nd it helped them retain possession a lot easier and thus detrimental

What Jesus got to do with it?

Even our dog knows this, when asked where he found a ball he said its susej's

It would have been interesting to see the Lino's decision if Johnson had hit the floor as Burns wrapped his arms round him but, as a defender and where it happened you can't take that chance it'll be seen. 

In today's game you can't throw your arms out as it gives the officials the opportunity to make a decision. Johnson should have broke free, then bided his time and twatted him further up the pitch.

Well a decision was made in game, the one official camera its not clear what happened. Clearly the crowd angles show it was a bit naughty, but that would be VAR on another level.

Johnson was stupid as it could have been a red if the ref had seen it properly 

I like this squad and that we are tougher these days, but not when it's rash. The stupid free kicks we give away around the box have cost us big time once we come up against decent quality

Sorry pal, had to wait until on the PC to reply, it's a nightmare trying to do it on the mobile.

Don't know whether anybody has said this but, like you say...

It was seen by the officials and a penalty given, with no following card.

So it should be the end of the matter there and then, with no other process to follow because as the law makers say, we cannot look at the matter if a decision has been made by the officials.

It is bollocks because the main camera at the ground does not really show it clearly. The defence will be the officials "saw" the incident but not who did it, and the TV evidence merely confirms the identity.

But it is a very dangerous precedent if this is any way being determined  by social media. Because let's be clear we have several thousand more phones with phones that could capture incidents.

What is to stop me rocking up at Plymouth trying to film potential incidents and then sending them on to the FA.

I’ve no issue with it, was always expecting it but I think there’s a chance they’ll not find the evidence conclusive enough for the charge he faces 

When have you ever known anyone walk away from a disciplinary meeting Scot free?

He's already been charged with violent and/or improper conduct so they must be confident with the evidence they've got. If we're successful against the violent charge then they just hit him with the lesser improper.

Absolutely, utterly scandalous. Should have obviously been a free kick to us for him being repeatedly pulled back. All he tried to do - as shown by the fan clip behind the goal - was shrug off the fouler. He never even turned round to see where he was!  

This is nothing more than an opportunist, illicit 'punishment' for having got up the noses of the authorities for showing them up over their minions' rule breaking conduct in denying the goal properly scored against Plymouth, and how they reached that other, scandalous, wrong decision.

The point that people on social media etc are missing as they don’t have knowledge of Fa disciplinaries is that you are guilty until proven innocent. So they have charged with the offence and we will not get away with it as it happened and the efl have charged so no defence will work so ban incoming Im afraid.

it’s the same in grassroots and I have experience of it. Still considering writing a book

They ‘didn’t know who it was’ shows how absolutely absurd it is too. 

While there was a decision made at the game, they got a pen, the officials saw enough to deem it a penalty but the lino couldn’t see who it was? How did he see it happen in the first place then with any certainty?

Marv should request the evidence and if a gap toothed yokel rolls up with his sister girlfriend holding an iPhone he should release the info to the public. He'd get an extra ban but trial by some sore loser in the crowd is taking the piss.

Guilty or not we cant't be judging on fucking fan cam. Nowt gets said when ITV/ BBC/ Sky discuss similar.

It's definitely a mark on our card for speaking out about big screen VAR

No point in challenging it.

If this charge was dropped you can guarantee a referee will send him off in an upcoming match, for tripping over his boot laces or another equally non-sendoffable offence.

Heard somewhere that if we put in a plea of guilty today he could be banned for tomorrow. Sure that’s what was said on Twitter somewhere

I understand Joey Barton has done something similar - posted a video of an offence against Bristol Rovers which went unpunished.

Lincoln City player just got a 3 game ban because of it.

https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/lincoln-city-player-banned-violent-8160833.amp

The difference is that it was captured from the media gantry so it was ‘official footage’, not by a fan.

I see there’s nothing said by Barton about him threatening a Lincoln player live on local radio though…..
