Fuck off curbishley you twat

[Termite Man]

also joey jacobsen is probably the player in our team last night who you'd say is the least dirty out of any of our players. he's a good lad who just wants to play football and he's no thug.

I really like Joey . He's the kind of player I'd like to see at Wycombe and I have no doubt that he didn't mean to injure Dyer !

I'd be surprised if he comes back this time next year if its a break, if its a fracture perhaps less.

break and fracture are the same things medically . You just get different types of fracture

clan breaks so i wouldt be overly shocked if he is back in training at the very least towards end of the season.

I think you mean it is a multi-fragmentary closed fracture

 

[kained&able]

yeah like i said two clean breaks.

firstly you said clan breaks but I'm not going to be picky and you never specified a number either !

Although he major downside for this is that Mclaren can pretend injury problems are why england won't qualify for the euro champs instead of his crap management

or bently and milner get a chance and we solves our winger problems instantly.

but thats not likely.

see the crap management part of my post ! Maybe though with SWP moving to spurs ( if it actually happens ) he'll get more games and improve a lot ! Defoe however will just sit on the bench more and get more shit

West Ham will have to get on with it as any other clubs in the world do.

innit. such is life.

That is a shit tackle, the ball is miles away and he should be ashamed, what exactly was he intending to kick on the way to the ground? It was a pretty meaty kick. Still that sort of challenge gets dished out every weekend without too much harm coming to anyone.

I agree, think it was a kick and perhaps intentional, I don't really understand how he can be said to be 'going for the ball' by kicking the back of dyer's leg, which is all he can do in that position, he can't put his foot between dyer's leg and stab it away with the way he's off balance, as soon as he'd decided to go for it there was only going to be one outcome.

dyer giving him a nudge to send him off balance just before hand didn't help.

Agreed.

But in a fast paced pro game decisions are made so quick its just instinctive. Its not like he ran at him from 30 yards and jumped in. He never had time to think what his actions would cause, he saw ball and obviously in the blink of an eye got it wrong just as anyone else would.

If it happened a hundred times he'd probably do it again and not injure a player.

Two things:

1) slow mo replays often make things look worse than they are imho. I'm not convinced it was a kick at Dyer at all

2) people who have looked at it closer than I have reckon Dyer's leg was possibly broken before Joe even touched him

Anyway, Lucas Neill reckons there was nothing nasty about it so he's got bigger balls than his manager.

In a split second he decides to try and nick the ball out for a throw. He gets it wrong. He's still going for the ball, I've watched him play dozens of times now and he's about the least likely player to deliberately kick someone that we have. The kid couldn't foul a pavement.

 

[Ned Pointsman]

Lucas neill is the last person I'd be listening to for a gauge on 'bad tackles.'

Again, I don't see how he can be going for the ball when dyer's foot is in front of it unless he's got the new Adidas Quantum Tunneler's, he's the wrong side of him to stab it between his legs. I dunno, it probably is the speed of the replay that makes it look worse combined with an element of instinct, it just seems his foot gets some extra momentum on the way down and it just so happens to break dyer's leg.

Of course the guy could just be a load of shit at tackling, otherwise known as a 'scholes.'

 

[JTG]

As I've said, a few people aren't entirely convinced the leg hadn't gone before he even touched it.

Dyer's fault for the initial foul anyway
