canadablade Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Nicked this off another site, any thoughts on who it might be ? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/7330235.stm Some smart begger on another site said it could be a Blade who got sent off against Reading :o:o:o
howeyz Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Let's hope it's not true.It's an easy story to invent and difficult to disprove. It reminds me of the story of a side that got a game abandoned after having 3 players sent off by getting another to feign injury. I can't remember who it was though? Just for the record Beattie's 3 goals in 8 minutes equaled Sharps total for the season.Quite an achievement when you consider Sharp cost £2m

honedog Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Since no such event has ever occurred, it's hard to see how you possibly could remember which team did it. It has occured sheffield utd vs west brom, united had three players sent off(tracey, santos and one other who i cant remember?) then had two players taken off injured so game got called off. West brom brom were 3-0 up, in the end the result stood

That's one of the things that makes me highly doubt it was a Premiership - or even Championship - player, though. At that level, a £50,000 debt is not a major problem - considerably less than one year's earnings. Most players in the Premiership could clear it in a month.
honedog Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 The game that you describe is not the game that howeyz refers to. He specifically mentioned a team getting it abandoned deliberately. How do you know it wasn't abandoned deliberately? Only the people involved can only really answer that truthfully
freyasdad Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 I can only assume that you are one of the blue lot and if so it is a little bit cheeky coming on the forum accusing a team of doing something with what has happened at swillsbro this season. How many games called off this season?
