Mariner stuff not worthy of a whole thread

[gemkayem]

In fairness they were love taps from Marcelo, he wasn't throwing haymakers. The issue seemed to be how sensitive JC was even with the painkillers. If it was a rib cartledge injury then I know from experience how painful they can be.

Also take a while to heal so maybe he doesn't make it on the field this weekend now everyone knows about it - but I also know you can play through them and just grit your teeth after contact - given he is a Scotsman, he just needs to get a big bottle of Irn Bru into him

I currently have a rib cartilage injury and trying to do anything other than lie still is not fun right now, let alone being smashed in a sport. Don’t envy him right now!

Seriously painful injury.

My memory of my rib injuries is that it was painful to do much - let alone play sport. But the real pain came when they did an ultrasound on the ribs to see if the spleen was damaged. Sorry sir - we just need to keep pressing there as we're not getting a clear picture.

Always painful for a goalie with sore ribs

Vuka mentioned injury post game on the tv after the Nix. This would have pricked some ears that would have led to a hunt for injury/weakness

That stood out to me because Monty said sickness, and Vuka said injury. Monty was trying to hide it to protect him, which is fair enough

What stood out was we are ranked above Hull City and Bolton Wanderers. Plus there's like 500 teams between us and Shitney ?

Yeah nah. I get playing to win but actively hurting or attempting to hurt another human who is already injured is dirty and low.

Giving no quarter is totally fine, it you're too injured to play then being on the field is your own choice and the opposition owes you no adjustment at all.
But specifically targeting an injury is straight up being an arseh0le. The injured player is already at a disadvantage anyway.

And I don't buy the 'it goes on all the time' argument. It's flawed reasoning.
Mass shootings go on all the time, commonality doesn't make anything more acceptable.

Yeah, I dunno, Philly union in the top 160?

They play well in their league until this year, but it's a North American league, the whole north American Confederation is so overrated.

Opta has an agreement with CONCACAF and with every major North Am league (including the US second div) so it makes sense they’d juice the numbers for them.

Close so far with only seemingly 2 clear contenders of which I cannot say I disagree with one bit

It’s a poison chalice, we had a loosing streak when Monty won and now the Nix lost to the Cows after Talay won it. Give it to Mark O’Rudan again!!!
