At first I thought this was not a red. But even if you get the ball first, you can still get a red if it's high or reckless.
Cirkin overplays the ball and then slides his foot toward it, which is played into the PNE player. It seems just a clash of legs after the ball has been played.
However, in slow motion, you can see the studs are up on the follow-through of that play/tackle. It's a nasty tackle.
You can watch it here. But before letting it play at 28 seconds in, pause it and then change the play speed down to the lowest, which is 0.25:
You can now see he went full studs in. It's a Red because of that.
He's onside, but that's because the defender tried to play him off way too late. Also, there are two of them, so there is no need to do that.
In addition, Celar almost misses it by playing it too far ahead of himself.
He was always a decent finisher, but you won't even get that sort of lame defending in the Champ, where it's a low block, he doesn't have Burrel's pace, cannot hold the ball up, and isn't a header of the ball.
Indeed, the Scum ruin many a player there. Sterling needs to his time and punishment, get his life sorted and actually get a small club and just play football on tiny wages as no big club will take him now.
He could do it all and was strong on the ball as well. Total football.
I would argue that today, with all this side passing, he would still get his 19 goals a season in the Champ. This is the guy who would have gotten us 3 points against Charlton and Bolton and a draw against Boro this season. You see those games and you know if Adel was playing we would have won them all!
For some fans, it becomes obvious there is an issue. And we, as fans, have proven this recently, too. Last season, we fans called out an issue with injuries, yet QPR management claimed everything was fine. We also pointed out that we had no proper LB and the GK situation wasn't good enough.
This season, injuries have continued, and the signings fixed what we called out at the start of last season (especially at LB); now the evidence is clear: we were right to call this out and more.
We also called out Madsen's first season as very poor; the player admitted it as well. Luckily, we found out Madsen is an 8 and turned that around. His personal redemption arc. Santos, whom we called out as not being a Champ RB, proved right; we moved on. Celar could not trap a bag of cement; called out and moved on. Frey, being good but not mobile enough, was called out and moved on. Pace has long been short at QPR; a small fix with Burell, still a work in progress overall, called out for years by fans.
We have been doing this a long time; for example, buying Hatley after selling Ferdinand.
Fans often get things right over the so-called pros. This is because a fan is short for fanatic, and that's what we are: crazy followers, zealots, and experts on our club.
Back to the unnamed one: if they don't like him anymore, they could force him out like EDB. We never got to the bottom of that; I suspect off-field issues with EDB, as he had potential and signed a 4-year deal, only to then be bombed out. One day we shall find out the truth about that.
We signed players who were not ready in Cirkin and Lampty; they needed time to get fit. The injury to Kemper brought Lampty in way too early, as they originally said after the break. So, to be fair it was forced upon them. Keeping JCS fit has been a miracle, but of course, every week is another miracle as it's early days.
However, on the other hand, they totally rested Chair and Kone (not even brought on as subs), only for them to get injured in the next game. So, that was pointless resting them.
So, really, overall, it's no big change from last year, from what I can see. The only upside is that we have a better balanced squad, as we it seems we need it!
I actually think it's good news; he was dealt a terrible transfer window there and had to polish a well-known stinky turd.
I am not sure anyone else can turn it around, even if they get someone in tomorrow. Also, the players know this too. They fecked up too many windows, and they know it.
I remember one game where it was 0-0, and PNE started to waste time in just the 30 min. Shameful, L1 for them; finally, the dark arts masters have been caught out.
Now can we be greedy and hope Burnley do a Leicester and Luton?
Agreed, but that's what happens when you spend money on fake PPE, bailing out privatised water, train companies, whilst being fleeced by the Banks and Energy robber barons, instead of building Prisons and paying prison officers proper danger money to put the ex-CEO of Post Office in jail where she belongs.
Has he not got a course case on 15 September 2026.
Assuming it all blows over, Chair style, then he will probably sign for any top-tier club that has not allocated all their 25-man squads yet. I think these clubs still have spaces: Newcastle, Spurs, Fulham and West Ham.
These teams can afford him, and three of them are based in London, which we know Sterling prefers. He ain't coming here.
I would like to start the rumour that we are signing free agent ... Diogo Leite
Even though he's way out of our league and would cost too much in wages, I just like the idea of getting him on a free to be the sub for Dunne should he get suspended or JCS break's down again.
It's just fantasy, and not true, but is that any less than all the other fantasy rumours that have already been posted?
It sounds like Lampty and Kamara won't start. So, that means Cirkin comes in, with I would suspect Edwards in the middle, with JCS back in at the back.
I suspect he'll play Burrell all the way up until the break. Saito was poor, so we can expect Chair to be back in, and I suspect Smyth will be back in as well for Vale.
