He was clearly throwing the ball out for the goal kick which Hart made a pig's ear of. This giving the ball back unwritten rule nonsense does my head in. Players spend the entire game trying in any way to get an advantage but as soon as a player goes down and the ball is put out this holier than thou attitude springs to life. The ref should be the one to stop the game for 90% of cases. He should then restart the game with a good old fashioned vigorously contested bounce up.

There should still be a place for sportsmanship and it's quite sad that some think otherwise. You cant always rely on a ref to stop the game, he may not have fully seen an incident or may just be a complete fuckwit like Dean last week.With this said, Hart should have let the ball go out - he was trying to get the game going too quickly and it was his error. But I still agree with Keown on this one. If teams pause before putting the ball out when one of our players is down again - maybe with something far more serious - then we can only blame ourselves.

That and not celebrating when a player scores against an old club. We're not the fucking Corinthians
