Quote Homer_J_Simpson="Homer_J_Simpson"I watch you every time you're on Sky, I do think you over rely on Chase, I also think you're very weak on the right hand side, but hey, if we all thought the same, that'd be pretty boring wouldn't it.
I think most Fev fans are too young to remember the Slatter/Johnson incident. FWIW, it was far worse than the "Chase Elbow". Be under no doubt, I find foul play of any kind, by anybody abhorrent.
I assume you are referring to the almost spear tackle by Briggs. Live, I thought it was bad and that Briggs was lucky to get off with just a penalty. Having watched it back on Sky+ though, you can clearly see that upon realising that your man had gone beyond the horizontal, they put him back down safely and no harm was done.'"
Didn't make myself clear....the absurdity was the view that lacking Chase would be good for Cas. We dont just over-rely on Chase. Such is the dearth of attacking skill in our squad that we are totally dependant upon him to the extent that many (myself included) doubt our ability to score enough points to win any SL game without him.
As regards the Briggs incident I didn't actually classify it as a spear tackle because there was no downward force and to be honest the way our guy was lifted suggested to me that there was never an intention to apply any. So just a case of lifting beyond the horizontal and penalty sufficient.
BTW nice of you to take time out from slagging off Cas fans on the Wigan board to enlighten us.
