well breaking a leg can be a career breakig injury. and most def. would set someone back for SEVERAL months. as it happens this particular game is only a few days away from World cup too..
I think we all agree that the ref. was maybe a bit too hasty but didnt do anything wrong really. Eric On 5/19/06, Scratchinshed <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

It didn't look so dangerous to me but perhaps I am mistaken. Keepers flying into players and "knocking" them as you put it is far more likely to result in a broken leg IMHO.How does this fit with the ref taking no action for the boot in the groin later on ? If the ref was REALLY protecting the players from each other then that appeared to be a far more dangerous incident. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
