Dirtiest player you've seen play

Muscat wins for me, a horrible bastard. I also have unpleasant memories of Pat Crerand and Billy Bremner, not to mention Roy Keane.0

Him or his team mates did Rodney Green in the same game. They were brutal.LenGlover said:
Matt Tees I think it was.Irememberbonzodebut said:George Curtis - a veritable hulk of a Coventry City centre half in the days when Jimmy Hill was in charge of them - he put a Charlton player - trying to remember who- about three rows back in the main Valley stand after taking him out two footed on the cinder track in front of the old dugouts, even from high up on the East terrace you could hear the crunch. It was one of those games that really boiled over.

For those mentioning Roy Keane, yes his tackle on Alfie Haaland was unforgivable, but Keane was an awesome player, great engine, incredible athlete and could play.
Hurlock, Muscat, Dennis, Jones, Fashanu and the rest were pure thugs.0 -

Has anyone mentioned Graeme Souness? Great player but he was a nasty, spiteful piece of work who was always looking to hurt the other player and what about Dennis Wise? what a little prick he was. I have to say the rest that came to mind have been mentioned Hurlock, Muscat et al but you could take practically any team from the 60's or 70's and come up with one or two in each team.0

Glad someone mentioned Eddie Youds rather fetching 'tackle' on BergKamp; & another fond memory is when he made Van Hooijdonk quite literally squeal - legend!! Surprised there's nothing on Andy Todd yet (unless I've missed it), although his best(?) was either off the pitch or elsewhere. If memory serves, when he was at Blackburn, Dugarry introduced himself to English football by spitting at Andy Todd. Oh dear...0

Not seen his name mentioned yet but I can remember David "Psycho" Cross smashing a few noses with his elbows back in the day.
Good player though.0 -
Kevin Muscat, by a country mile.
There's a difference between being a 'hard man' and just being a violent player. It's usually that the violent, dirty players can't play football very well and therefore resort to other tactics.0 -
Think he was mentioned... I still remember his handbags with Graeme Stuart. Vague story I remember...Someone at Bolton was rude about manager Colin Todd... next thing we know, Andy is elsewhere and someone was a black eye.mongman said:Glad someone mentioned Eddie Youds rather fetching 'tackle' on BergKamp; & another fond memory is when he made Van Hooijdonk quite literally squeal - legend!!

never liked Joey Barton, horrible on and off the pitch0

Van de Hauwe for that forearm smash on Shaun Newton.0
-
got to be a cross from George Curtis of Coventry and Trevor Hockey Sheff United..Kin animals0

Will echo those who mentioned Muscat, Fash, Mick Kennedy and Mark Dennis. Animals the lot of them.
But they're all pansies compared to Elizabeth Lambert. Not heard of her? Then take a look at this........

Pat van den Hauwe. The Newton assault was bad, but I'm pretty sure he also elbowed another Charlton player off the ball at WHL when he played for Spurs (Humphrey?). Didn't he also get in trouble for beating up his mrs?0
-
Vinny Jones .. the worst of many Beastie Boys .. there are a lot of candidates0
-
Alan Shearer , made a career out of leaving his elbow in , couldn't believe when he done it on Herman H at St James's Park , dirty git.0
-
Mick Tait. Played in same Pompey side as Kennedy. Massing for Cameroon in Italia 90, 3 goes at Cannigia. But ultimately between Muscat, van den Hauwe and Djiouf.0

The tosser's hated as much in Oz as he is here.

Rumour is that you don't mess with Joe Jordan, even now. Apparenetly when he and Gattesu squared up over in Milan v (Spurs), Gattesu was lucky it was broken up before Jordan got hold of him.Nug said:Joe Jordan wasn't exactly an angel.

Being a good player doesn't make you exempt from being a dirty player, and however you dress it up Keane was a dirty thug...... The red cards he got surely go some way to backing that point up.Ormiston Addick said:For those mentioning Roy Keane, yes his tackle on Alfie Haaland was unforgivable, but Keane was an awesome player, great engine, incredible athlete and could play.

Watching the sheff utd game has reminded me that morgan was a right dirty chunt0

Paul Scholes. Seriously.
B*ll*cks to all this "He can't tackle" nonsense.0 -
He put that guy out for months with that one.RedPanda said:The tosser's hated as much in Oz as he is here.

Muscat and Fashanu for me. Fash broke a guy's back or neck I think, and another guy's leg. And nearly destroyed Gary Mabbutt's face.0 -

Ben Thatcher - seen him do some nasty things, just screams nutcase0
-
Between Billy Bremner and Kenny Burns. They don't make dirty players like they used to!0

I have no idea of the player you're talking about so I had a look on youtube. If Schumacher was the goalkeeper and the French playerSuperCliveMendonca said:Harold Schumacher - that tackle in 82' World Cup Semi-Final against France was basically attempted murder
was Battison (or like that) then I got to agree, that's the most disgraceful thing I've seen in sport. I've seen deaths in football on youtube
and there was one, totally accidental, that was similar to that where the player got hit by the goalkeeper. He died. Battison could very
well have as well. Totally shocking!
