Todays Mirror. Blackwell bust-up over time wasting. Blades chief Blackwell let his temper get the better of him as he was forced to do the Youngster's job himself and gave him a blasting. A case of the biter bit.
see blackwell got his two paid thugs to get at the goalie early on. two clear elbows to the head by the thugs morgan and henderson. again nowt done.
Kevin 'where's my balls' Blackman certainly lost it last night .... take your point about 'what goes around comes around.' I just think it is wrong either way. I also noticed that the really nasty side of the Blunts cut in once they went behind. The Crimewatch count noted, as others ommented: 1. A Morgan elbow to the back of Jensen's head - it was not as bad as Humey's as Morgan was jumping for the ball at the time; 2. The stamp on Robbie Blake by Greg Halford - should be retrospectively a red card - it was deliberate, calculated and cynical - how quickly Halford has fallen to the Blades' standards - remember him as a promising youngster at Colchester; 3. elbows flying by Henderson - at least twice. This was another referee who seemed determined not to book anyone. I think that he surely did miss the Halford incident, so it ought to be looked at retrospectively and Halford ought to have a three-game ban. Blackwell's loss of temper showed the man real personality for me - raging and ranting down the touchline; storming on to the field of play; this is what his players get in the dressing room, no doubt - hardly a wonder they get over-rash and will stamp, elbow and kick anything which moves. I thought the Sky commentary team picked up the Halford incident properly. I wonder what will be done - probably sweet FA
