My twopeneth for what its worth......

It appeared to me that having chased the ball for a number of yards our guy slid in with every intention to win the ball - he didn't though claims he touched the ball in the tackle.

I acknowledge its tough to see a player hurt (Christ knows I seen Jarvie on the deck twice now and Lean as well) but I really believe the intention to hurt wasn't there and that these sort of posts do nothing for either club going foward.

One or two of the Club I players did very well keeping things relatively calm and indeed themselves suggested it was an accident. Most of the real "mouth" only came from the sidelines who were 20/30 yards away oh and CIC of course......

RUFC is having a crack down on players who get in trouble, hurt the team and the clubs reputation. Jim Frank did ask my opinion just after and the above is how I saw it.

Wishing the fella a speedy recovery

Will
