2024/25 James Tarkowski

[Miked1e]

Both reds. One mistake doesn't excuse another.

Didn’t say it did, just said Van Dicks is worse as he doesn’t get anywhere near the ball and straight leg front on on the shin.

 

[davek]

Because he told the truth?

Because he threw our captain under the bus on telly to try and ingratiate himself with Sky and get another pundit spot.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Absolutley disgusted with Ferguson.

Reckon he has given up on managment and is looking at punditry, pretty sure he said something in Manchester game which had me thinking he had swallowed the EPL coin.

Delusion is something we try and attribute to the RS. It was a reckless tackle from Tarks and should have been a red. Having an issue with an ex player and coach suggesting something that’s true rather than pretending it’s not is dumb.

That's a wise choice. He was at it.

 

[Papa Shango]

It’s a red card. Whether he meant it or not (still think he did), it’s a red. It’s not that he followed through but how he did it. Doesn’t matter now anyways so time to move on.

It was pretty early in the first half, there is no way he meant it with the risk involved of being sent off.

 

[chippy1722]

He got what he wanted from it, forwards will have a little think about going in for a tackle with him now in case they get hurt.
Back in the day all defenders put a marker down early in the game, Tarkowski just goes that bit further. I reckon he’s done something similar at least 20 times in his career.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

ha ha... Lets hope he don't go full Sharpe. Anyway Tark tackle was never red card for me.

He definitely didn’t mean to get sent off. He did mean to take a piece of macallister. Tarks is a bit of a head case.

'Reckless'' in the rules gets you a yellow. That's what he got.

No idea where you think Tarkowski should have disappeared to AFTER CLEANLY TAKING THE BALL. Maybe he should have teleported himself elsewhere on the pitch.

He cant defy the law of dynamics. He was committed and it wasn't;t from behind and Macallister...a rat of a player who goes out every game to injury other players...had ample time to ride that follow through.

But yeah, let's throw our own player under the bus like that disgrace Ferguson.

Was it excessive and/or potentially endangering his opponent?

He had to follow through. He didn’t have to follow through in the manner he did.

Per usual, think you’re just looking for attention.

Conjecture.

Well said, I thought the same thing. Does he catch the man? sure. Does the player lunge to try and win that ball? Yes. The ball went well over the half way line which meant he put some power behind it. He couldn't just stop and end up elsewhere to avoid hitting the other player. It's silly. It's a yellow and the ref got it right.

 

[carolinablue232]

Conjecture.

As is what you’re suggesting.

Red for me would have needed to have Ratty red with control of the ball, or Tarks makes contact with him first. Neither in this case, so yellow was fair. My lad who plays non league was incensed it was even foul, nearly very nearly called me Kopite, I'm still bigger than him.
