I agree that he MIGHT have been taken off, perhaps at half time, but the medical staff know more about his fitness to carry on than you or I so I will assume that he was perfectly alright to carry on, even in such a high charged local derby. What you and I clearly cannot agree on though is the cynical nature of Reach's actions. The sly smirk said it all for me - perhaps you were too far away to see it. I was very close and Reach clearly and blatantly put one of our players out of the game. That's all I have to say on the matter. You carry on debating it if you wish
I saw a game of football. One team played with honour, spirit & determination. The other team was Sheffield Wednesday.
