When did he turn into Dave Kitson? Horrible cheating display from him today and PNE certainly rivalled MKD for dirtyest team of the season.

Glad Kennedy and McEverly stood up to it today, Kennedy McEverly and Flynn where the contenders for MOTM for me today, I really don't think we need to spend the money on Brayford when Flynny is playing so well at RB.
 



You been reading Bladesmad Harry? I already compared him to Kitson on there, hateful anti football from Preston today, I thought they had got Westerly back in charge at times, glad justice was served and we won.
 
I could sum up todays game with this - and for ALL the lurking PNE fans...............

"football triumphed over thuggery"

Typical Simon Grayson team - hard, uncompromising, dirty, cynical - but the thing that pissed me off most - was PNE players trying to play the fucking victim....time after time after fucking time.

I really hope you play like that again on FA Cup 4th round day because we will spank you again playing FOOTBALL !!!!

The sooner we get out of this division the better,you only get a certain amount of limbs!
 
Yes, PNE were dirty twats, but that's probably what you need to get out/kick your way out of this League - worked for Wednesday.

The ref. did what so many do - failed to yellow card the first bad challenge and basically said to PENIS, 'That's set the marker. Carry on fouling.'
 
Davies is a real threat though ,superb in the air ,horrible to play against.. I read somewhere that he has committed more fouls than any other player in history on the match fact thingies.
Higdon should have been watching him today I hope.

Said in the car on the way home, if Higdon had played the same way the foul count would have been doubled, he'd have hardly had one given the other way and he'd have been booked after about 10 minutes.

From Wankipedia:

Davies is known for his bustling, physical playing style; he has committed more fouls than any other player in the history of the Premier League, although conversely he is also one of the most fouled.

Diddums.

I think because he was getting no luck with their hopeless long balls he decided to try and outmuscle our centre halves. Looked past it today

He was indeed and very much like COG - although with a touch more dirty - sorry cynical behaviour.

Christ, Wankipedia are quick! They've already got a report Davies' performance today!

Direct free kick offences
A direct free kick is awarded when a player commits any of the following in a manner considered by the referee to be careless, reckless or using excessive force:
  • Kicks or attempts to kick an opponent
  • Trips or attempts to trip an opponent
  • Jumps at an opponent
  • Charges an opponent
  • Strikes or attempts to strike an opponent
  • Pushes an opponent
  • Tackles an opponent
Or commits any the following offences:

  • Holds an opponent
  • Spits at an opponent
  • Handles the ball deliberately (except for the goalkeeper within his own penalty area).[1]:36
In determining whether or not a player deliberately handled the ball, the referee has several considerations:

  • Movement of the hand towards the ball (not the ball towards the hand)
  • Distance between the opponent and the ball (unexpected ball)
  • Position of the hand ('natural' position versus 'unnatural' position) does not necessarily mean that there is an infringement
  • Touching the ball with an object held in the hand (clothing, shinguard, etc.) counts as an infringement (considered an extension of the hand)
  • Hitting the ball with a thrown object (boot, shinguard, etc.) counts as an infringement (also considered an extension of the hand)
Yup, they've just about covered all his indiscretions.
 
Glad we won though we made it look a lot harder than we needed to and though I agree about PNE being a dirty side today we have all said many times that you have to do what ever it takes to get out of this league .
We were by far the better football team today but they are still 9 points clear of us even after we've beaten them......

There are few players I hate more than Kevin Davies, Luckily it didn't work out for him today, the Centre Halves had the measure of him and the ref only fell for his bollocks about half the time.

Yes the no 7 was a real culprit there, diving, whining, shrugging and complaining.

Agree , but it seems all the top teams in league 1 , can mix it when required . This is league 1 and unfortunately footballing finesse does not always win the day , when being kicked to death. Today was the exception and it would have been a travesty if PNE got anything out of the game.

We can say all we want about Davies , but i wish he was in our squad , which would bring a bit of steel into a game , when we need that extra bit of aggression and not be intimidated.

If it was between Davies or Higdon , i know who i would want.

Doyle MOM today . Cool , calculated and creative, and kept his cool throughout.

Yes we will win in the cup when we play them again , but it will be a different kettle of fish from PNE , when it comes to football.

Agree, Davies was different class today - great awareness and movement throughout and put in a real shift. Surely one of the best players to slip through our fingers. Should not be mentioned in the same sentence as Higgy (sadly).
 
Davies is just a typical target man, puts it about unsettling defenders and opposition keepers. He's always been that type of player, but as he's got older has become less effective.

You can slag him off if you like, but bear in mind, it won't be long now before he's hung his boots up and has a season ticket back on the Kop and then you'll all be clambering to sit next to him! ;)
 
I don't mind him putting himself about, it's the diving, cheating and general whinging that gets me. The twat was like a cut-rate Teddy Sheringham out there today, a shit Centre Forward and referee all in one.

And he's said he'd never play for us, he's a Blade like I'm a Nun.

Why the knocking of Kitson ?, came to us and did a decent enough job, wasn't scared of putting himself about.
