Coutts FA probe

[JohnDenver]

Fucking hell, Jade. Are you stalking me from La Manga?


(btw. On typing "stalking" predictive wanted to put Stalin. Shoulda kept it at that?)

I'm backing up your argument dear boy. People weren't taking it seriously until then.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

My seat moved during the game then. SS, ten yards from home dugout towards the Kop.

Looks like we're talking of different incidents as his 'expanded' image backs up what I saw.

 

[Bladesman]

What sort of probe will they use on him?

 

[jamie_blade]

4.37 mins Coutts just shoulder barges the Norwich no23 Maddisonwanka.Nothing to worry about with that.

The incident is in this video at 7:41 (top of frame) hard to tell but from the Kop gangway C looked like an elbow, Coutts lost the ball then deliberately stopped their player running on to it

 

[Sean Thornton]

IF that's it, nothing to worry about surely.

That's a totally different incident to my mind.

I think.,Err....

 

[Fulwood Blade]

and finally - moment immediately after impact - note the position of elbow. Both players are approx the same size - if anything Coutts elbow has pushed the twats shoulder.

In F1 terms - it would be a racing incident.

UTB

 

[Fanny magnet]

If he's found guilty of an elbow from this, the fucking lot's going up.

Is this the incident in question?

No case to answer

No case to answer

Different incident, bud. There was another. But even so, evidence provided by Fulwood Blade is a million miles from conclusive.

 

[Irelands number one]

Not the greatest but this is said incident, clearly see Coutts arm across players face, he lost the ball in a good position and also lost his cool. For me we'll be lucky to have him sunday!

 

[jamie_blade]

This is the one

 

[Fulwood Blade]

the one from 7:41 - very difficult to blow it up. Now this video was taken from John Street - any official footage used will be from South stand gantry, which might be clearer - or not.

Someone with ifollow footage needs to try and post a still.

UTB

 

[stringer]

It wasnt really off the ball though.

It was, though.

 

[Davalon]

Nice one FB. Certainly not enough evidence to impose a retro-ban. As far as I'm aware, official matchday video is still taken on only one camera.

My initial reaction on Saturday, all be it from the edge of G block on the South, was that it was more an arm stuck out yo block rather than deliberate elbow.

Others I spoke to in the pub after weren't so sure though.

 

[elgoog44]

was there a woman on the grassy Knoll? as I think she might have had something to do with it... hang on, wrong forum and thread carry on...

Is this footage taken by a Blades fan that would not otherwise be available elsewhere? If so can I heartily recommend we take it the fuck off this site before any sniffing piggy decides to forward it onto somebody?!

 

[Freethinker]

Play carried on, and they should have had a pen when Blackman wiped out Maddison.

I remember both players Norwich down, although Husband?, soon leapt to his feet when he saw the referee had ignored his theatrics.

Blackman didn't wipe out Madison he got to the ball first maddison crashed into him

 

[DaveBassettsgoneonholiday]

Oi Zapruder. Loose the footage !!

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Tell what? Where it is? Cos I made the clip.

Don't think this is it, and I doubt the camera would have caught it as it was absolutely nowhere near the play at the time.

Edit: the second image is the one in question.

Its a good shout Blade for Sale

there are a few Piggies sniffing about on here as well.

 

[Scooter_mcgavin]

What time is it? I'll get onto it on iFollow.

 

[SteveBlade]

Lundstram to show us what he's all about.

Potentially:

Blackman
Baldock
Basham
Wright
JOC
Stevens
Lundstram
Fleck
Duffy
Brooks
Ched

Someone's going to have to pull something out of their arse if we want to place the ball between the goalposts.

 

[Treeton Blade]

Blackman didn't wipe out Madison he got to the ball first maddison crashed into him

So it should have been a corner?

Ball was behind Blackman when he got there, IMO of course.

Pen all day long.

 

[DazBlade88]

What time is it? I'll get onto it on iFollow.

We know it was in the second half and that it was that minute where a Norwich player was time wasting. So, somewhere from the 45th-96th minute

To be fair, they come from a place where time stands still, so they might not have understood the concept

 

[broomhillblade]

It's all part of a cunning plan. Wendy have spent weeks working out how to stop Coutts. If he's not in the side, they won't know who to mark. ;-)

Touché sir.

 

[Sean Thornton]

It was, though.

Different incident

 

[Treeton Blade]

What time is it? I'll get onto it on iFollow.

Around the 85th min.

Maddison went off on 87, the incident with Coutts was a couple of minutes earlier.

Maddison and Blackman collided seconds after Coutts `foul`, but it took him 2 mins to limp off!

 

[Pinchy]

Anybody got footage of the clear penalty we should have had in the first-half.

Also why were the dishonest Norwich play-actors making elbow gestures when it was a forearm at the very worst. What he actually deserved, of course, was a fucking firearm...

 

[1889]

It wasn't off the ball, Coutts was in possession with two Norwich players around him, just inside their half near the dugouts, he laid the ball off and the Norwich player came in late, Coutts raised his right forearm as the player ran into him, who then went down like he'd been hit with a baseball bat. Looked like a bit of self preservation to me?

It happened not long after he'd been booked and I must admit, I feared the worst given the standard of refereeing that had gone before

So, if the ref didn't see it, who draws the FA's attention to it, do Norwich or the player make an official complaint, or would it be the ref assessor or other third party?

Snitches get stitches and all that
