You are clearly putting club bias above common sense.
How idiots like the one I've quoted are simply brushing this incident under the carpet is quite staggering.

Should have been a red in my opinion but Alibert bottled it amongst numerous other bizarre decisions from him.'"
moas' was accidental, he didn't intend to go to the head, rinaldi dipped at the last moment, bridges' elbow slam was intentional and deserves a longer ban, poor decision by alibert, (maybe he should've took a peek at the big screen like silverdud)

Or it could just meant that we're not all one-eyed pillocks who'll defend our players' indiscretions with little white lies about what happened, and downright pig-headedness

You could argue that it's Wire who'll benefit - given how hot-headed Bridge has been so far this season it could mean a few less penalties given away cheaply to Leeds

Idiotic fans defending the indefensible shocker - I've seen that kind of crap spouted on this site for long enough to know that it's not a trait of any individual clubs fans, but of a sadly large amount of fans in general regardless of who they support. Edit: Usually the inane drivel of this kind of person is preceeded with statements along the lines of: "I am never biased towards my own club, I watch with both my eyes open...."
Now, if you're done tarring me with that "typical wire fan" brush of yours, can we get back to sensible debate and calling Chris Bridge horrible names instead of each other?

| Find it quite funny and quite bitter that the people on here saying Bridge should have been sent off are probably the same people that were defending Tommy Lee the other week with his act of thuggery on the basis that "it was fine because he did it against that ****house Lee Briers".
It was a stupid action by Bridge and if he gets suspended, then it's his own fault.

Who seriously thought Lee should have stayed on the pitch?
It was a stupid action that should have been punished there and then. What good is a ban to Bradford?

| My take on it was Bridge went to hurt the man by attacking him with the elbow. Yes there was no contact with the head but the intent to hurt was there. To say he was attempting to dislodge the ball is wrong as the tackle had been complete and its easier to dislodge with the hand rather than your forearm.
It worries me when incidents like this happen and the ref says 'Chris keep it down' were does he think he connected. The Moa one was accidental, the Tommy Lee one should have been a red and so should this.
Other than that and the usual odd alibert calls I thought he had an ok game.

| Definate red card, incidents like that without punishment damage the sport, if you were a parent watching that, would you want your child to play the game, when even with the best officials and multiple cameras it isn't ' seen '?

I suggest to try to learn the difference between a 'large portion' and one or two.
So again.... can you clarify what this reputation is please?

I didn't say 'typical wire fan' - I said a large amount of wire fans; as unfortunately, a large amount are defending it, some just completely sweeping it under the carpet. I didn't suggest you or any other are part of that portion of fans; some people are needlessly defensive - yes sadly it is a large amount in general but the relevance in this thread is wire and some statements made are pretty galling.

man gets kicked in the knackers and responds by dropping the elbow into the chest... A moment of poor indiscipline that will get a 1 game ban... worse things happen on the training ground.
It's hardly 'man tries to gouge opponents eyes out for no reason whatsoever' is it?
