Wasn't Leppitsch,It was great to listen to Leppich defend the action by saying we don't want anyone staging for free kicks and Lyon shouting, he did get a free kick!
Yeah but if any of us for pushed by a 6 foot 8 guy we would go over that quickly also... ******* great argument that!!!
That was Simon Lefthlien (?), his argument was that they deemed that Franklin pushed him in the throat and that's why he went down.
I think he went down way to easy, and if we set the precedent that it's not acceptable and we fine him, then as long as it's consistent moving forward I don't mind.
Not sure we want to suspend players though for going down easy. Rance exagerrated the contact, he didn't fake a push to the neck/chest.
