Stamping the ground next to where the guy was being held, which is what actually happened, doesn't warrent a suspension

I think Gorman has put N/A in a very difficult position with so few games left with few options N/As choices are limited, Gorman is now so unpredictable discipline wise is it likely he will stay on the pitch. I think we still be OK and with Josh O hopefully playing at some point tomorrow night let's hope it's onwards and upwards COYCs.

Whatever the rights or wrongs of what went on Saturday it’s not up to us as fans to stoke it up and pressure the club in to taking action against our own player. Leave it to the club or FA and if we we have Gorman available for the run in then great, it’s an extra body available. Will be interesting to see the reception he gets from the inbreds when they visit on Easter Monday

In the event DG does play on Easter Monday, I hope he's up to his eyeballs on tranquillisers or cbd he's sat down and given a proper talking to by NA. The "walking booking" will be a target for every single Shots player, coach and fan and he needs to break the habit of a career lifetime and keep his heid.

In many ways, if the decision is taken out of the club's hands it might be easier. If Dale's behaviour costs us that game then surely that's the final straw.

What's the deal with his contract? Is it up this summer or was there a mention of appearances triggering an extension? (And if that's true I must have missed the club announcement...?)

COYC
That would normally only announced when we publish our released/retained list in the summer.

Who claimed he stamped on the muppet’s head? Looked like a leg and arm if he did stamp on him.

To be fair if you saw the bloke he did look like someone stamped on his face, but that’s how he already looked when he woke up that morning!

I’ve seen nothing to suggest he did anything other than replace a divot.
Watch The Masters this weekend and you’ll see the golfers do it all the time.

SHALL WE BAN GOLF AND ARREST EVERYONE IN PLUS FOURS?!? HE’S DONE NOTHING WRONG!!!!!

Sorry.

I’ve only seen the video from the north stand - can see him stamp twice but not clear what his feet land on

Disgraceful!

I can understand using force if he was the first one there to get the guy off Will for example, but the guy is on the floor and restrained already but two other guys.

The two stamps and with studs - that’s extra and not reasonable use of force in any way.

To be fair to Gorman on his first attempt, he's spotted the full 4 inches of arse crack being displayed by the wind-milling Billy Bob and targeted it.

Having endured Gorman's free-kicks all season I'm not surprised at all that he's missed.

Yeah, conclusive that he didn't stamp on anyone's head.

I was stood pretty much in line with the incident at the back of the side terrace. The fan was restrained with his head facing towards the south stand (the small seated one to the left of that view) and his legs pointing towards the Aldershot half of the east bank. Even though the fan is still wriggling on the ground and trying to sit up, it's crystal clear that Gorman passes on the wrong side of the fan to stamp on his head.

Given the fan was sticking his legs in the air trying to trip Gorman up* it's easy to see how Gorman might have overbalanced and unwittingly stood on him in the process of trying to regain his footing.** No case to answer, m'lud...



* this bit may not be true
** this bit may not be true either
