Syteanric 1 Posted November 19, 2006 looks horrible on TV!!!!anyone seen it? I have to say why didnt the ref show a card? the guy has taken Chadwick out clearly, maybe not meant for him to clatter the board, but still...a wrekcless challenge which has led to the hospitalisation of a player. the club should takre action i think.jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tumbleweed 106 Posted November 19, 2006 Agreed- saw an Ipswich fan in the background cringe on the replay! The guy just barged him straight into the hoarding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Harvey-Jones 0 Posted November 19, 2006 I haven''t seen it again but I thought at the time it was a very poor challenge. I was also surprised and worried to see that the advertising boards at Portman Road appear to be metal and with no give in them for collisions. Surely this is asking for trouble and it may have cost us dearly if Chadwick is badly injured! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ark 0 Posted November 20, 2006 I was at the ground... My gut instinct says it was a dislocated shoulder, the way he just sat there loosely holding it rather than doing rotations or anything. I just hope it wasn''t something worse like a broken collar bone. Either way, on the basis of that, I''d guess he may well be out for a couple of games minimum. Sad, as his performance was one of the few positives on the day. Still, great signing in my view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom NCFC 0 Posted November 20, 2006 Sky Sports is saying it was severe cut knee, I hope they are right. A shoulder injury would be bad news! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balham Yellow 0 Posted November 20, 2006 I was at the ground as well. It was man and ball. It wasn''t even a foul. Granted, Chadwick got absolutely clattered but it doesn''t mean it wasn''t a legal challenge. Talking of taking action is just about as pathetic as our performance yesterday. It''s a pity there weren''t any players in yellow that showed a similar level commitment and aggression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
