Because the schmuck got himself injured through his own foul play so he'll be out injured for the duration of any ban implemented (if his injury is as bad as feared) and as such a ban will be pointless. Make the ban effective by banning him when he's fit to play.........silly!

And how can you totally justify any injury? Any player/club can fake injuries that the medical people can't be 100% sure on, like back Inuries.
If your silly idea ever becomes a rule, I'll run down the favoured road of your choice in the full Wigan kit shouting I'm a pie chomper.
It will never ever happen, its a a childlike pathetic silly idea.

I wouldnt even respond - half the clowns on here screaming for a ban are just trolls and the ones that arnt have probably never pulled on a shirt so have no idea how easy it is to make a clumsy tackle or just stick your arm out. It looks far worse because Meli is so damned big and strong

Meli hasn't got a aggressive bone in his body, never mind a dirty one.
He caught him high, it was not deliberate but was a bad one. Nobody can complain, it was 100% sending off and deserves at least 4 match ban.
To say his ban should start when he's fit is pretty laughable

Totally agree. I think people struggle with understanding the difference between dirty and clumsy which is odd as it's clear to me e.g. Terry Newton attacking Sean Long was just plain dirty as he intended to hurt him.

| As already said, he deserved to go and a suitable ban should be given, but I agree that Meli is not a dirty player and doubt it was malicious, just very sloppy.

I'm no trolling. Maybe it isn't the best plan in the world but my point is that if Meli, or anyone else for that matter, through foul play on an opponent malicious or not, injures himself he may be out of action anyway
e.g. Takes someone high, gets a 3 match ban. Injures himself in the same incident, out for 3 games anyway. That's not a ban, he's out injured through his own folly so in some ways he hasn't served a ban really.
The point about not pulling a jersey on, a knee construction, one of 8 operations on said knee and waiting for the right time in my old age for a knee replacement means that I didn't get the chance to pull the jersey on as many times as I'd have liked/could have. So your comment, pardon the pun, doesn't stand up very well!

| How you clowns can pass it off as clumsy is nothing short of laughable.
Deliberate , deliberate , deliberate.
Watch it again.
His absolute lack of remorse for both tackle and red card is proof of this.
Dirty player , lengthy ban.

| It's as if people want to read that we are contesting the decision, find we are not and ultimately try and clutch at straws.

18821_1298880800.jpg [quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |
