The Irish Football Team Thread

He was unlucky though, he went in for an honest tackle, for me didnt really endanger Coleman s it was across the front of Coleman and Colemans swung in and his legs broke. 999 times out a 1000 Coleman would have been fine and people would have gone "that could have been a red" but because his leg broke people are calling it a horror challenge which it wasnt.

 

Luckiest manager alive right now. Surviving off the coattails of Bale's ability and form last season. Not so much this time round, unless he turns it back on he'll be found out. An average squad without Bale with an average at best manager.

 

So after catching him, if not injured, we'd all be saying that was just an old fashioned tackle? After ME AND YOU second's before were in the thread going mad about Bale?

* me..

 

Where did you/taylor think Colemans leg was going to go after pulling it back to cross the ball? Taylor was never getting that ball but jumped in anyway. Same as Bale wasn't getting the ball in the O'Shea incident.

I wont post it but JackCassen_ has the slow mo video up on twitter.

 

Ledley is getting it tight on social media for this photo. Is he laughing? Or grimacing?

Sorry if it's been posted.

 

He's looking towards the Welsh bench. Leaning more weight towards it being a Coleman tactic..

Doesn't look good..

 

Ledley's broke a leg he knows exactly what Seamus is feeling right there

 

Clear grimace, people just looking for likes making it into a bigger deal.

 

Taylor has a sly smirk as well..

 

What?

 

He knows the pain, Ledley broke his leg pretty much 12 months ago

 

It's not clear, that's why there's a debate.

Hope he comes out and mentions it, he's normally pretty active on Twitter and that.

 

Defo looks like a smirk I hadn't seen the picture when I mentioned my past Ledley comment

 

Nah man, I know but who was laughing or giggling at the time? Strange way to appreciate injury..

 

I think hes probably speaking & your mouth can form many shapes doing it. A snap shot taken out of context I think.
I can't imagine another pro taking joy at the sight of poor Coleman on the ground.

 

Looks like a smile to me. I doubt he's smiling about the injury but its an odd one.

 

I hadn't seen the picture before I typed my mistake
Yeah doesn't look good tbh expect better from Joe

 

Look at Taylor (Number 3) clear smirk on his face too

 

It's all guesswork but clearly looking to the bench after a few minute's of bad challenges..

 

If Ledley is laughing or even smirking there whilst another pro is badly injured he can * right off, I know the picture doesn't look good but that seems out of character.
