[Archived] Lee Williamson

[rovers11]

What a legend!!

On the pitch for less than two minutes, got sent off, stopped Burnley from winning.

Welcome back, Lee.

[Stuart]

Did well to catch up enough to grab hold of him. It's lucky he had only been on the pitch two minutes and was fresh because Ings is 10 years younger.

[booth]

Shame he will be out for a few games now though. Better than the alternative of Burnley scoring a second though!

[Tom]

In all seriousness what a team player

Burnley fans on twitter saying he should be banned for ten games

[DE.]

Pretty much every other player would have done the exact same thing, but yes, well done Lee.

[LDRover]

Did more than Lowe in his late 'cameo'

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Have no issues with what he did whatsoever. Just like Suarez at the World Cup. Took one for the team which involves a fine as well let's remember.

Fair play to him.

They must have been raging

[Tugay-is-God]

They tried to get the ball past Leeroy but he said no no no.

Brilliant

[Tom]

Told you there would be a red Gav

[Baz]

Todd Kane should pick up the fine for Williamson, it was his error.

Said at the time it was a silly decision to take off Evans and put Williamson on in injury time, when he hasn't kicked a ball fir months. Just glad it didnt cost us the game.

Williamson did the only thing he could to be fair.

[DE.]

I doubt Williamson will be fined.

I would say it's a shame we can't transfer Williamson's ban onto Kane, but we have more cover in CM than RB so maybe not.

[RevidgeBlue]

To be fair we'd be absolutely livid as well if the boot had been on the other foot.

Just disappointed we'll lose Williamson now for 3? games with it being a strsight red.

[Baz]

Its 1 game for a professional foul.

We didn't need the second goal as badly as they did.

We'd still be highly peed off if we thought a bit of professional foul play or as I prefer to call it cheating by one of their players had cost us the win.

I thought the fine comes from the FA/Football League though?

I think I read once it's something like 8 grand for a red. Maybe 4?

I was under the impression it goes to the club as opposed to the player, have to admit that's a total assumption based on nothing though!

[RevidgeBlue]

Its 1 game for a professional foul.

Oh ok, I thought it was 3 games for a straight red and one for 2 yellows.

I think it should be really. At only one game ban there's no reason at all not to commit a professional foul.

Starting from next week of course!

How is it cheating?

He committed a red card foul and got a red card

He didn't try and decieve the ref and took his punishment

[Steve Kean's Hypnotoad]

Did what he had to do and took one for the team, well done Lee.

It's cheating because you're comitting a deliberate foul with no intention whatsover of trying to win the ball.

Most of the time you're trying to win the ball legitimately.

It will happen against us at some point later in the season probably.

But fir today, well done to Williamson for taking one for the team and probably saving us a point like SKH says.

[Tom]

I wouldn't say any time a player loses his man and holds him or pulls his shirt its cheating but can see what you mean
