Charlton Thread.

Charlton fans tweeting and copying in the EFL over a rugby like footscrape from one of our players on the head of Taylor when running into the melee . Not seen it ?

If that had happened I doubt Taylor would have had that irksome grin on his face as he was leaving the field, made my blood boil almost more than Maxted's sending off.
 
Finley rather disgracefully stamped on the head of one of their players, and Jimmy Bell is, in my opinion, very wrong with his post match interview.
Would be nice if the players and management could approach things in the same way as chairman and fans....although I understand that tensions will rise higher for them.

Any reason why a linesman can’t vehemently express his belief that a penalty should be given and the ref change his mind as a result? - just because the ref is closer does not mean he gets a clearer view. I’d say that’s a team of officials operating well and trusting each other.

If yeh watched it the ref was about 10foot away with an unobstructed view, unless i'm blind. also if Finley stamped on somebodys head that just shows how wrong the official were.

Just howJimmy was wrong for having the guts to say it how it is? I didn't see Sam stamp on anyone but then again it was difficult to make out exactly what did happen during the melee in the goalmouth, at least it was from the highlights. Maybe you were there & had a better view?
For what it's worth I think it probably was a penalty, albeit a soft one, but if the ref had a grip on the game & not allowed the free for all in the first place there wouldn't have been as much time added on & more than likely no penalty decision to make

If the team of officials worked well, could anyone who was there tell me if the ref allowed the liners to make throw in decisions.

Where have you seen this “stamp”
I’m intrigued.
We’re you at the game and is that your personal observation ?
I’m not saying your wrong (or right).
 
Their own No.4 seems to be the only one who actually gets close to kicking Taylor’s head whilst he’s on the floor.
I’m also 1000% certain that if Taylor had been kicked or ‘scraped’ or on the head by an opponent he wouldn’t have then calmly walked off the field laughing.
 
Whilst we’re on the subject of trying to kick players in the head...

If the ref did nothing else wrong he was definitely wrong in saying to JB that it wasn't a penalty - he should have kept his mouth shut instead of heightening the controversy.

One of those awful fan videos. But it includes a bit more than some others

And, fortunately, the video seems to show that the Stanley players were ‘remonstrating’ with a Charlton player after the penalty decision not the linesman, so let’s hope that’s the last of it.
 
Exile, google Sam Finley and Stamp. It will lead you to the Sun newspaper which is running a story and has a video of the incident.
 
Massive IF there for me, if Sam did do that deliberately then yes there should be consequences but I've watched it a few times & it doesn't show anything much clearer than the highlights did. Looks to me like he was running in to see what was happening & MAY accidentally have caught Taylor but does anyone really think that Taylor wouldn't have argued the point with the ref or walked off grinning as he did if it had been a deliberate stamp?
But, it's in The Sun so it must be true :rolleyes:
 
Looking at the handball I think the clayton end would have been peed off if that had happened to us and nothing given, and how many times do you hear YOU CAN JOIN IN LINER, and when one does we don't like it.
 
Cant play hell about that handball,some will give em,some will not. the sendings off were summat else, Maxted is our penalty specialist.:(
