I feel the some, absolutely incensed. I've post a letter to James McCarthy C/O Everton FC. I don''t know if he'll receive it or bother to read it but you never know.
Dear Mr McCarthy
Your scissor tackle on Dimitri Payet was nothing more than a cynical attempt to take him out of the game or at least slow him down. I played amateur football in the 1970’s and 80’s and even I know what damage a tackle like that can do. You, as a professional player must know that and yet you deliberately tackled in a way, absolutely calculated to injure an opposing player.
People like me pay a lot of money to see footballers like Payet who is a one in a million player. Unfortunately players like you are ten a penny and with cynical tackles like that I feel you are not even fit to lace Dimitri’s boots.
How you, as a professional player playing for Everton, a club with proud traditions can look yourself in the mirror after Saturday’s game I don’t know. I hope you are ashamed of your actions but I somehow I doubt it.
I give you fair warning, I’m an award winning playwright (New York 2009). My next play is football related and now includes at least one reference to you and your tackle on Dimitri and pulls no punches.
I’ll be very surprised if you respond to this letter but would be interested to hear what you have to say. I suppose we’re unlikely to hear a media statement from you anytime soon?
