I really love tough play, but when things like this happens, It's just very sad.

It was a needless injury, for sure. Stupid by Thatcher.


Posted by Az on Aug-24-2006 14:28:

he deserves locking up for that
i actually know people who've been locked up for less than that, it's sickening


Posted by scAza on Aug-24-2006 14:45:

^my thoughts exactly... absolutely sickening.

yeah but there's a difference between a tough but fair tackle & all out assault mate. Will be interesting to see how this one goes.

such players dont deserve to play footbal IMO..
if i would be in the FA i would ban him for at least few seasons..
i would even think to investigate this shit.. moda fucka ban him !

Disgusting, Ben thatcher is known for being a dirt c*nt aswell. I am amazed the Pompey players did nothing. i would of made sure that he wouldnt be able to walk off the pitch.

I hope mendes is okay. Spend the night in hospital and thy will be doing tests for th enxt week to make sure there are no problems.

Definetly.

This is just dirty.


Posted by Dj Alex (ISR) on Aug-24-2006 17:16:

dirty like cheating?


Posted by zoric on Aug-24-2006 17:20:

Did Mendes cheat for any reason?

Please, This is about the that dirty tackle from Thatcher.

Saw that one yesterday in matchof the day, outrageous foul. Should be suspended many matches, never had any intention to play the ball.
Do this on the street and you'll prolly end up in prison, on a pitch its 'part of the game' .
Disgusting player.

Did he even get a yellow?


Posted by The_G0dfather on Aug-24-2006 20:44:

forgot that, could be though


Posted by scAza on Aug-24-2006 21:28:

Yes he was yellow carded (unbelievably he wasn't sent off)!

I don't know how he wasn't sent off when we have a 4th official, referee, and 2 linesmen - somebody must have seen it

Absolute disgrace anyway

Horrible to watch. Thatcher is a known thug on the park, no-matter what people say about him off it, he shouldn't be allowed to play professionaly.


Posted by sleepydragon on Aug-25-2006 00:05:

ben thatcher is a complete prick he should be banned from football its not like its the first time hes done this he has seriously injured players 3 or 4 times before. He injured a chinese player that ended up with a collapsed lung once.

Zidowned!


Posted by sensorium on Aug-25-2006 04:39:

Saw another angle, nasty elbow.


Posted by Ian on Aug-25-2006 10:03:

Man City have said it was sickening. both stuart pearce & richard dunne have commented on it, and city are considering suspending him.

Too right.
He ran in with no thought about the ball, if he wanted to stop that ball he would have jumped next to him to block where the ball was, but he obviously if you watch the video see that he isn't looking for the ball, or bothered about where it is.

Ban him, lock him up.

Anybody know what happened to Thatcher?
And Mendes?


Posted by scAza on Sep-19-2006 19:44:

Thatcher got a 4 game ban from Man City, and then the FA added a 6 game ban (I think)... Mendes has now fully recovered and is playing again for Pompey I think

i think he got a suspended 10 game ban or something aswell so if he gets in trouble again he will get banned for that ammount of games
