That's the problem, on report is a cop out.

Now the game has finished kind'a glad he stayed on the pitch

1. would have been an easy excuse for the dobins result
2. would have given Sulkycock another reason why he isn't to blame

I'm glad he didn't go. We can't go giving then excuses for losing!

So any news on Turner?

Despite staring directly at it Silverwood didn't see it. When he eventually stopped play Smith told him what had happened. No pen because it wasn't seen but Mika will get suspended which will help Rovers' next opponents. We have to play the majority of the game with 16 players total and a lad gets his face smashed in. The fault is with the on field officials one of whom should have seen it. Silverwood was in position A1 so the fault lies squarely with him IMO.

Agree 100%, Silverwood was useless last night, KR were their usual cheap shot selves and I think FC did very well to (largely) keep their cool.

As mentioned, you can't effect a tackle with a fist-clenched. I think there was intent there.

Looked like a cheekbone fracture to me.

My thoughts too were that as play had moved on a penalty could not be given. But Silverwood and his lino's were pi$$ poor for not seeing it, game should have been stopped immediately. Once it had been referred to Smith thought it would be a sin bin or red but guess as Silverwood allegedly saw nothing, then again he couldn't go back. Mika may not have meant it but clenched fist to the face certainly looked to have intent, Turner did well to get up and walk from the field, hope the lad does not have anything broken.

Could have been a game changer but thankfully the boys put in a stirling display. Any ban for Mika will be irrelevant as he'll be out much longer if its a hamstring tear...Karma

Didn't know he had. He would have completed the game...

no one tackles with a clenched fist, but I doubt he intended to cause that damage
why would they plan to take Turner out the game when his defensive positioning and intercept attempts could have gifted Rovers a lot of ball!?

Maybe that was the excuse they wanted for losing? "Rich Whiting moved out wide and he's just too classy for us"

this brings me back to the magic weekend derby though. silverwood stopped play for this, why didnt ganson stop when martin was down???
and i think mika should of bin sent off for that tackle, well head shot. who goes into a tackle with a clinched fist?

Sometime players clench the fist when putting a shot on with a swinging arm. However, regardless of the intention it was reckless and made contact with the head so he should be getting at least 1 game.
