When Reid broke his leg/it was broken? Wasn’t a foul though was it? I thought he broke it trying to make a tackle
I've got this memory stood in the brewery stand there was a break in play due to an opposing player down injured and barnsley brought on Kenny Burns, he jogged on across the pitch and stamped on the injured player. I'd love it if someone else can remember that
Ben Williams against Wigan, absolutely awful tackle and deserved red. Antonee Robinson (for Wigan I think?) Against Bahre for us, a blatant red card, absolutely cleans our player out and tries to claim he got the ball! For another reason Phillips in the play off final last season, it was a debatable red card and not as nasty as people have seen before but at the time sat in my chair at Wembley I just knew he was getting a red for it.
Gerry Taggart winning a 30-70 against Mel Sterland away at Elland Road on the night we came back from a goal down to win 2-1 back in 1990. Was a clean, hard, fair tackle as it turned out, would have been carnage had he got it wrong. That said, I've never seen an opponent bounce so far off anyone, straight into and over the advertising boards.
Had the pleasure of playing with Malc Shotton, just friendly 6-a-side, probably about 10 years ago. Bloke on opposite team just constantly leaving his foot in, being narky and getting on everyone's tits - just no need. He had no idea who Malc was, so just tried to barge him this old bloke out of the way. Malc planted his feet as this bloke ran into him. It was like watching a crash test dummy. He just crumpled, literally crawled off the pitch, and never showed up again.
