Did anybody listen to this - any news?

Does anyone other than Rubber Duckie in his taxi actually listen to Wire FM?

When do we find out if Westwood is banned and for how long?

Quote: BuckleyStreetWire "I don't agree with that first point and I'm getting sick of players (Brough at Hudds especially) moaning about tackles being late (on his kicks) when they aren't.

If a player has already made the move to tackle an opponent and within the seconds that follow that player has moved the ball on or kicked it and then he gets creamed because the tackler has committed himself to the tackle; there's nowt wrong with that. It's a tackle after the ball has gone but it's not late.

And I would complain at two games for that from Westwood. Yes it was high and it was silly but bloody hell it wasn't that bad at all.'"


I can kind of see your point, but technically (in the actual rules), you cannot make contact with a player who does not have possession of the ball. There is no sort of 'time lapse' that says you have, for example, one second in which you are allowed to tackle the player after he has had possession. If a player doesn't have possession of the ball, you just cannot tackle him and stil be within the rules of the game.

As said I don't think Westwood was ridiculously late, but he was late. That would have justified a penalty. The problem he has got is that he made contact with the head, and this would be foul play whether Gale had the ball or not!
One match would fit with similar offences this season.

I'd say so and I think the officials should be stronger at the time and bin him, it was high enough to be a yellow. Westwood was silly to do what he did.

On the tackling; it's a bit of a grey area, you can't pull out of some tackles but as you say you can't hit a man who isn't in possession. In on the side of "if committed, let it go" as long as it's not high or from behind.

Sounds fine to me. Small price to pay for improving player safety.

Quote: Wirefan "Does anyone other than Rubber Duckie in his taxi actually listen to Wire FM?'"


Other than listening to my good mate doing the play-by-play Wolves commentary, I don't listen to anything else on Wire FM.

In all honesty, apart from 5 Live and TalkSport, I don't listen to any radio music station. It's all internet radio for me.

Duckie's a taxi driver? Is he Padders in disguise?

That is a big blow for Saturday with the amount of minutes he normally plays.

I thought the tackle was worth 1 match, but the committee may have taken into consideration that he has already had one suspension this season already and upped the suspension to 2 matches.

The worrying trend is that suspensions mean the committee have determined he committed an offence worth of a dismissal. With the amount of suspensions dished out, that's an awful lot of serious foul play being missed by the on-field officials.

Quote: Wirefan "Does anyone other than Rubber Duckie in his taxi actually listen to Wire FM?'"

I can tell you for certain, rubber duckie doesn't listen to Dire FM. It isn't even tuned in the radio.
If I listen to commentary, then I'll use BBC local radio.

Taxi for WF.
