opinions4u Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 So he got sent off and said "I disagree with your decision referee". http://www.oldhamathletic.co.uk/news/article/2016-17/gerrard-charged-by-the-fa-3578807.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 (edited) I was tempted to re-visit my twitter discussion with him...but it's pointless. He and some of our fans think his reaction (whatever it was, he refused to answer twice what he actually did) was fully justified for a powerpuff, eyebrow to eyebrow. His "thanks to the boys" for pulling him out of the :censored: and "it's 1 game so I'll be back Saturday" made some happy on the day but after his absence probably costing us at MK and now 2 more games, his lack of professionalism could cost us even more now. It's no wonder other clubs stayed clear despite his talent. We need him on the pitch...putting in performances like on Tuesday. I hope he's learned his lesson....not holding my breath tho.

DerbyshireLatic Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Did something in the heat of the moment, we don't know what or if something else provoked it...he's apologised and accepted his punishment so let's not be sanctimonious about it. Wilson will do a job at centre back as he did at MK. Shez has brought everyone together...let's stick together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Did i tell you I managed to get a convo out of Gerrard on Twatter? - big yawn.

astottie Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 we need 4 points out of those 2 games. it's going to be much harder without him. Wilson will be fine at CB but moving people around will weaken the team. Who plays RB? McLoughlin, Hunt? Where's Edmondson disappeared to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaticsLegend Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Dread to think what shape he will back in. Looks very heavy at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie_J Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Getting a three match ban for something petulant isn't to be commended. I'm not saying hang him out to dry but he's a senior player and his sending off could have cost us on the day, but fortunately didn't as it turned out, may well have been the difference at MK and could cost us during the other games he'll miss as a consequence.

Not going to try and justify it in any way shape or form, but I guess this is the baggage that comes with Gerrard. And as you say this, along with clearly his fitness issues, is probably why he's not had a sustained career at a higher level.

palmer1 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 How did he cost us at MK Dons!? Did we play with 10? what was Chesterfield his 2nd or 3rd game? now him missing is costing us games. The air must be thin up there on from your 'superior' view Boundaryblue80? One sending off in how many games for Oldham over 3 spells and now you can see why clubs didn't sign him?

Flemboy Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Gerrard helped enormously to save us from the drop last season and has apologised so let's move on.We will miss him but have cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Adds weight to the thank :censored: we did not sell Clarke to Scunny argument Given the fact he has twice been on no wages over the past two seasons I'm sure the lack of match payments is going to hurt him enough without supporters sticking the boot in. Rather have a player with passion like Gerrard than a 'do just enough' seasoned professional in our team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some right bellends on here who know :censored: all about what happened indeed. You said he was out of order. He said he reacted because he was headbutted. You can say he shouldn't have reacted, fine. People do react though, it's human nature. Stop attention seeking. He's got a ban. End of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others have answered why it "PROBABLY" cost us (see, deliberately missing out words to suit you) at MK. Most with a brain understand football and how moving a defence about needlessly can upset a side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some right bellends on here who know :censored: all about what happened indeed. Enjoy your nano second of fame, your are after all a legend in your own lunchtime. Its sport, it happens and I'd much rather we have players who put it about with pride than the shrinking violets who went before him, Clarke plays the game close to the line and his approach isn't too dissimilar to that of Gerrard's yet strangely you only really to have a problem with one of them. I'm pretty sure the manager and the players are over it and will move on, if it doesn't bother them I can't for the life of me see why you should be so traumatised by the whole episode.

palmer1 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 lol I didn't change anything just cant quote anything on my works computer... I posted before MKDons it wont cost unless you are looking for a scapegoat. Many couldn't wait to blame him before a ball had been kicked at MK has it cost us all season? one of the best defences in the league. Did it cost us with George at the back against Peterborough? He did play in a defeat at Bradford. your overall view on Gerrard and his employment opportunities over the last 3 years based on 1 sending off is PROBABLY bollocks!
