Good. Cheating bstard. Hope he continues to get called out and pillioried for it for a long time. It needs players to realise they will be labelled and tainted for it. If I was his manager I would have fined him.
I love how Leeds requested a hearing as they felt given the "extraordinary sportsmanship of the head coach, the 2 match ban was harsh"i.e. allowing the oppostion to score unopposed???? Didn't think the two incidents were related in terms of the ...ahem 'simulation' AKA 'cheating'. Suffice to say the authorities told them to get stuffed.
The punishment should have been doubled due to the brass neck of that. They should have put up and shut up and taken whatever the punishment was. There surely can't ever be any mitigation for such disgusting cheating.
Going over easy under a tackle is one thing. Feigning assault is something else. Should be ashamed of himself...
Only just watched the highlights, Hourihane playing the hard man grabbing the Leeds scorer and then ends up on his arse when the rest of the Leeds team get involved.
I like and rate Bamford and am sure he is mortified at his moment of madness. Never thought he was good fit at Leeds and hope he can get back to his best and put this behind him. Would love to have him at Barnsley.
Years ago we had a WONDERFUL Christmas dinner at the pub in Bamford. A long way to go from Darfield but worth the journey. I think the pub is closed now... it was the big one at the side of the road in the village.
Ah well that was back in the day when men were men and women were grateful. No nancying about then. Pubs stayed standing !
