Latest on Leighton McGivern?

[Zero]

GUTTED

In the short time he`s had he`s showed great promise, I love the way he runs at defenders, and when he`s come on later he`s an instant handfull. The goal he scored was pure class then moments later we`ve lost him.
Aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrgggghhhhh !!!!!!!!!
Here`s wishing Leighton a speedy recovery and all the best for the festive season, put yer feet up lad (Santa Smiley).
Hope he returns a Stanleyman Soon.

I didnt go the game so i cant say if it was a freekick or not but the Ref obviusly thought it wasnt, so no matter however long play was allowed to continue the Ref aint gonna take action against the "culprit" is he?? so i dont think its relevent where the player was stood, on the refs toes or other end of the pitch because the Ref didnt see anything bad about the challenge.

The trouble was neither the ref or the linesman saw anything bad in most of the challenges on our players - yet whenever a Macc player went down it was an instant free kick on almost every occasion, it really was pathetic. The one on Leighton was right in front of the Stanley fans and the linesman, it was deliberate and malicious yet nothing was done.
