that's what Sky News told me earlier. no harm either. anyone who says it's undeserved needs their head examined

SG said after the incident that he tried to pull out of the challenge !!!
Imagine the damage done to Naysmith if he hadn't "pulled out of the challenge".

Pain in the snot though, we're gonna miss him badly...well at least Didi's back fit.

Got what he deserved, the intent was there regardless of wheather or not he pull out or not.

Thanx 4 The Fish · 03-02-2003 4:42pm

Yep, looks like he could be the next Roy Keane...

Shame he is out, he is just starting to get back to form and it's no coincidence that the team is coming back to form on line with him.

irishgeo · 03-02-2003 4:49pm

Yeah its a shame.He is coming back on form. When's the ban start.

woosaysdan · 03-02-2003 5:28pm

look at roy keane b4!! he was and is still the same!!! i can see gerrard becoming the next keane!!!

Ronan|Raven · 03-02-2003 5:30pm

Yep, looks like he could be the next Roy Keane...

Which in a way may not be such a bad thing just if he minuses the controversy out of his game!

wordup · 03-02-2003 6:29pm

he's lucky not to be banned for longer in all fairness....

and yeah there is a bit of a Keano streak in him i reckon...

No suprises, could have been worse.
Its just as well the next 3 games arn't
too taxing, well hopefully!

Mike.

hes lucky enough!! at least he is not suspended for the worthless cup final!!!

apparently Gerard Houllier was furious with the verdict of the fa video panel.

the referee even said he'd have sent him off if he'd seen it.

bloody awful tackle - indefensible.

Thanx 4 The Fish · 04-02-2003 12:44pm

It is a bit odd that both managers said that it was not as bad a tackle as made out by the video panel. Usually the manager with a player on the receiving end is baying for blood.

yop · 04-02-2003 12:47pm

I don;t how the managers can say it was not bad, everyone here agrees it was not a good tackle, cannot see how the managers see it different

spanner_head · 04-02-2003 12:53pm

was a wreckless challange.

But there are rules for different people. Berkamp had a 'stamping' incident before xmas (I think). I think he got away with a fine only...wheras Gerrard gets a ban.

If the FA are dishing out punishment the least they could do is to make it consistant across the board.

Gerrard will be back for the worthington cup final to kick some scum a$$!

What the hell are you talking about. He's not going to turn on his own team mates.
