    Forlan in trouble...

    Anyone see this, from yesterdays match v Maribor.

    The Slovenes won and go through to the UEFA Cup. I imagine Forlan will get a hefty ban.

    Jaysus it looks like things got a bit heated there

    Just after watching the Materazzi elbowing Sorín video as well, had'nt seen the incident before. I reckon that Materazzi is a right savage, I am a fan of fair physical football where players are alowed to put in proper tackles but this sort of stuff......

    He shouldn't have done it (gave him a clatter) but what an over-reaction by the other Player.Check out rolling around as if he'd been really nailed.

    even if someone does get a proper thump in the face they never roll around on the ground.they either lay still or get up and do the same back.

    He saw the red coming and thought fcuk it, might as well get sent off for something worthwhile.

    Not condoning it, but you see so many petty reds these days, at least he deserved that one in the end.
    I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

    You've got a point there. I know its slightly different but did'nt Roy Keane say something like ``if your'e going to get sent off then you might as well get sent off for something good``.

    Cork's Danny Murphy's after hinting at something similar in the paper, after getting a 2 match ban for not a lot he's thinking he should have reacted violently.
