I do

Le Tissier has made the valid point that if it had been Ming's child on the floor, he would have found a way not to stamp on his head.

I don't think that really follows. My neighbour, who's job it is to save lives, hit his child whilst reversing on the drive when the lad ran out and he didn't have time to stop.

Sorry, but that is one one of the shittest analogies I have ever heard.

What about Mary Poppins kicking Neil Lennon in the face and getting away with it because England didn’t want him to miss the World Cup in France?

Poppins apparently threatened to pull out of the World Cup squad if they dared to ban him. Mustn't forget that important second layer of shithousery from England's hero.

I hated him. Every time we played against him he had the run of the penalty area with the ref tucked in his pocket. When was this dirty bastard’s history re-written?

Why would his child be playing up front for Reading?

Sounds like he did it on purpose.

Put it on Twitter and see what they think, then we can hopefully hang him

It's the only sensible thing to do.

Whats quite telling, is the Reading messageboard thread after the game. There is hardly a mention until the picture is shown.

I've watched it numerous times and I have no idea if he did it on purpose, but I'll go with the reaction of the players and referee.
Nobody thought it was violent.

They're desperate for forwards after their star man was trodden on?

It really is.

It’s happened, injuries were nasty. It was spotted by the ref without action . There is no retrospective action by governing body.
Please can we move on and carry the thread like it started , good signing, best player in poor team effort on debut, good balance to defence who can play in a couple of positions, height will be another good asset at set plays attacking and defending type stuff......

That's exactly what I've been banging on about.  At the time it happened it was treated like any other injury and the game continued with no further comment on it.  There was no sense of injustice.  It only became a vicious assault when the photo was published.

He wrote that in direct response to me, it was after I asked him his thoughts after he waded in on a twitter spat I was having with Darren Huckerby, you gotta love the internet.

The question should be asked ... Why didn't Nelson move his head out of the way as he clearly saw Mings foot coming his way .
Looking to get a fellow pro sent off, bad form that should be an instant red card & 10 game ban .
