Wigan vs Newcastle

Anyone else seen McManaman's tackle? Horrific. Halsey didn't even give a foul.

He'll be in big trouble for this.

    Shocker. Just showed that Halsey's view was obscured, at least they will be able to give a retrospective red.

    There will be retrospective punishment because Halsey did not give a foul. Imagine at least a 3 game ban for a tackle like that.

    The worst tackle I have seen for years. McManaman should get a six month ban .. he won't though .. and this follows the dubious red card for the Norwich keeper

    McManaman almost scored just then. Think there would have been a riot had that happened.

    Not a great Pardew fan, but, looking forward to his after-match interview.

    Wigan now only 3 points off 17th with a game in hand. Looking likely to survive yet again.

    mmm he was quite measured and realistic if not fatalistic
  • Just seen it, terrible tackle.

    He'll probably get a longer ban for the tackle now than had he just been sent off and given the usual 3 match ban..

    You have to presume the official just missed it despite being so close - bit like the Webb one in the FA cup game between Stoke and Man City.

    Missed the handball as well (assistant to blame?)

    FA will not charge Callum McManaman over his tackle on Massadio Haidara

    It was said he might get away with it IF one of the assistants said they saw it but still very surprised.

    Whelan, the owner of Wigan has lost a great deal of credibility in my eyes. On the radio he defended McManaman: to whit: 'a great lad with not a bad bone in his body .. he went for the ball and won it, he didn't go over the ball and it was a complete accident' (an accurate paraphrase).
    Dave Whelan, we know you are an old bloke and have rose coloured and obviously out of focus glasses .. you are TOTALLY wrong here old boy, and I suspect that your comments heard by your mates at the FA have got your player off the hook. Well done for sticking up for the 'boy', but long term you have done damage to 'the game' as a whole.
