2024/25 Iliman Ndiaye



Not that it will happen but the club should be demanding an explanation as to why Ndiaye was booked for supposedly inciting the crowd with an alleged seagull celebration but Vardy wasn't booked for inciting the crowd by pointing to his logo and letting them know he's won more Premier League titles than them. I know which of the two celebrations is worse for riling up supporters.

I guess "but that's what Vardy does" must be enough of an explanation. Selective officiating at its finest by an official that required over four minutes with his VAR team to award the most blatant of penalties you'll see all season.

Whenever an away team score they seem to run over to a corner flag and give it loads to the home end. Its a bit like the diving rule, we had Niasse suspended after a game early in the season, and very soon you never heard of player getting done for it.
 
Must be magnificent at charades, over 11000 different bird species and Iliman can specifically imitate a seagull (the only bird that apparently warrants a yellow card) by flapping his arms.
I think a Blue Tit imitation would also warrant a yellow card as he would have to take his shirt off in the cold weather.
 

Have the club protested the booking as it is the most ridiculous booking I've ever seen.
If the booking stands does this open a whole new can of worms as are all celebrations including living creatures now outlawed ?
It’s ridiculous because he wasn’t even flapping his arms like a seagull, everyone else could see it was a European swallow ladened with a coconut.
 
Tbf, I consider scoring a goal as taunting the crowd.

I've seen players celebrating goals before putting them in, that's taunting a crowd.

Players sliding on their knees into the away teams corner, that's taunting a crowd.

Any celebration in front of an away crowd is taunting the opposition.

Maybe they should have a catalogue of authorised celebrations, where you choose one at the beginning of the season and if you use something different you get shot in the back of the head before the crowd can go home.
