He took all of the ball in that challenge and was allowed to play by the ref, no worries. The kick back was dodgy but he's just been booted in the stomach, somewhat understandable, yellow but no red for me.Think SWP should've probably gone too FWIW. Was a nasty foul on Etherington (even if he deserves that and more) just before Delap went thru him & then he had a hack back at Delap after he'd kicked him. No question it was a red for Delap, but should've been for SWP too.
Meant rearguard, clearly. Shocker.Better effort from Bellamy there. Been decent regard effort from Stoke, but hasn't made for a great game for the semi-neutral.
We have a few they could have.I love the way Stoke step up against the highly rated sides. Fast becoming my 3rd favorite side in the Prem. Just need an Aussie or two.
So what has Etherington done to get in your bad books? Geniune question as well as I might have missed what he had done.I w atched that game and I was thinking that Smith would be pulling his hair out.Beattie looks a hungrier player after a year or two out of the prem. I'm unable to offer any opinion on Etherington that makes any pretence at objectivity tho.
Fair play to Stoke. DCYE called it tho; Citeh never looked like breaking them down.
