Nice to see the players acting as role models!

Brilliant stuff. That was South Americanesque!

 

As for the role model comment, they're professional sportsmen, not children's TV presenters.

love how the ref doesnt get involved and just backs away making a mental note of who was involved rather than in the middle trying to break it up and missing half the punches behind his back

[Lets B Avenue]

Lloyd James not involved in the match.. Must have been dropped already.

Shame he didn't get dropped by one of the opposition players last night...

[Orange]

Cracking punch- up.

[latter day saint]

another reason not to leave a game early. stay & applaude the players post game punch up

[Sheaf Saint]

Excellent windmilling from the Bradford keeper I thought

[Lord Duckhunter]

Isn't that the Andrew Davies who played for us, says he's been sent off 3 times this season now.

 

I liked the way the bloke commentating said "the ref's lost complete control" like he's supposed to do something about it, it's hardly the refs fault.

 

On Talksport the local media guy said the ref sent the 5 players off in the dressing room after.

 

Crawley and their Manager have little class and like to wind people up.

Personally I'm looking forward to seeing the dawn raids on television with a camera crew following the police on one of them so they can broadcast the arrests in a blaze of publicity for "operation turkey" I also await the newspaper reports declaring the battle on the pitch as resembling a scene from Braveheart and tales of 75 year old men and pregnant women running for their lives.

I can't wait to here the chief superidendant tell the world he'll be pushing for the stiffest possible sentences to stamp out this sort of behaviour. Which will lead to ten year bans and prison sentences of 2-4 years and everyone with 200 yards being put kn the risk file.

What is it that goes flying up? A pair of boots?

Prompted me to watch the 1989 Lions v Australia match again. About five separate fights in that match - in an international broadcast live to millions. Cracking entertainment.

Anyone know why it kicked off so badly? No apparent history between the two clubs?

One of the Crawley players called George Galloway a 'mug' so Bradford went berserk.
