A groin injury? How ironic considering what Mr Clancy missed during the game

Clancy didn't miss it though, he gave a foul for it, should have been a yellow card but that would have been his 2nd!!!

Bloody hell is that real?  Why has more not been made of that?  That's assault.  The difference is that Alfie just gets on with it.

Clancy was conveniently looking the other way, it was brought to his attention by Rangers players, if only he had assistant refs to help him out! that would have been his 2nd yellow card!!!

It was also notable how Clancy insisted Davis went off beside the goals, which breaks the new rule on this!

This did occur to me during the game. All other players left the pitch via half way area.

I was just thinking about some fans who think it was wrong for the club to reduce to reduce the away ticket allocation in this fixture, I personally think it is the correct decision, and that performance & result proves the reduced number of Rangers fans doesn't really have any bearing on the teams performance!.

What I did not see at the time, was Edmundson able to get to the penalty area before the corner was taken? If not, that would have been a more grivous act by the ref, IMHO. Obviously, I hope Davis was smiling all the way to the area while bypassing the Hooped Horrors.

The point is, that is against the new rules, no player should be made to walk around the pitch when it is a high risk match, such as v's them, where it may endanger the player, you would think a referee would know the rules, and in fact Davis was the only player that was made to do this.

Given the recent abuse our players have received at multiple grounds, what match isn't a high risk match?
