There have always been players like Mings around in football and at all levels. They were there at amateur level in the late sixties/early seventies when I played and I still see them in the parks on Sunday mornings nowadays. Refs were afraid then and turned a blind eye and I see them getting intimidated now. At professional level this should not be the case and I can only suggest that if we bring in VAR for offsides etc it could be used for reviewing such violent incidents and taking appropriate action. As it does not happen often there cannot be claims of it taking too long and spoiling the game. Offences of this type should be treated with a mandatory 12 week ban and a total ban for second offences.
Tyrone Mings stamp on Zlatan | He’s at it again
- Thread starter Cutch
- Start date
Having looked at the slow motion of the stamp and the way in which Mings rushes immediately back to feign concern to his victim, I think he is guilty of stamping.
He should be given a seasons ban and a few weeks in jail. If Mings is not fined in such a way by the FA them Oliveira should go to the police.

Cool story.
What a joke if nothing is done over that
Considering his previous this should've been a full season ban or something. These are never given of course but the exceptional severity of the crime ("foul" doesn't do this justice) has to be taken into account. The player is extremely lucky to escape with both eyes intact.
If the FA don't use this case to revise their absurd rule something is deeply wrong with that whole organisation.

He shouldn't be allowed on a football pitch again.
I'd say they're the UN of football
It's a disgrace. You can't name another defender that's stamped on not one, but two peoples heads/faces. Maybe Pepe but he at least admits it, not like this shithouse Mings.
Could happen to anyone. Twice.
Nah - corrupt, uneducated, double standards in-crowd. Sounds familiar.
Pointless and blind to actual crime. Sounds very very familiar
Maybe that’s why Eddie Howe never played him?
Juanito got a 5 year ban from football for stamping on Lothar Matthäus face during the 1987 semi-final of the EC between Bayern Munich - Real Madrid. I don't see why for Mings it should be any different.
It's not pointless, it is useful but, truth be spoken, needs to be more consistent.Pointless and blind to actual crime. Sounds very very familiar
Seen by the officials...
Thats such a stupid fecking rule. Officials do wrong all the fecking time, just yesterday Liverpool scored a goal after a player was a yard offside, the linesman fecked up, these things happen but its not like the match is ruled invalid and has to be played again. This is completely different though, this is not your regular shithousery either. This is a player who went out of his way to maim and harm a fellow professional, but nothing can be done because "the officials saw it"
First of all, human error occurs, no one expects refs to be infallible, and second; refs dont have the luxury of slow motion and reverse angles. Then and there it might have looked like an accident to the ref so its perfectly understandable he did not send him off.
Ironically this does not help the refs at all either since this rule implies that any call they make on situations like this has to be the right one. More outrages like this one and refs would be safer to just send off players for any clash where someone get injured because its "safer"
The UN is most definitely pointless. Kings of condemnation but they do feck all
Does anyone think metal studs should be banned?
Referees are given wayyyyyy too much power, it's ridiculous. No accountability whatsoever.
For some reason I thought they already have been?
Maybe it’s the “blades” that’d cause that damage regardless? (Id even guess any plastic stud could do that to someone, with enough force behind it). Though obviously metal is much more dangerous.
Hasn't this "the officials saw it so we can't do anything" excuse been ignored in the past anyway?
Like the Ben Thatcher elbow on Pedro Mendes. The officials obviously saw it and only booked him but the FA banned him for eight matches.

How in the world can somebody get away with this not once, but TWICE?
Absolutely flabbergasting. This isn't even a matter of match bans anymore. The man needs to be in jail for assault. He easily could've severely disabled either of those players for life.
He will keep doing this every couple of years because nobody is doing anything about his murder attempts.

Elbows Pogba - 1 January 2021
Despicable cnut
I’m just baffled at the lack of VAR check and lack of discussion about it on Sky.
Jim Berlin said "He didn't throw the arm at him"
Feck me, Fellaini would have been proud of that elbow
Feck me, Fellaini would have been proud of that elbow
Because it wasn’t one of our players.
Absolutely zero question he did that on purpose.
There something sinister about him.. it seems like he genuinely wants to hurt the player.
Massive cnut. Glad he was at fault for our goal.
He's done it again that, Tyrone Mings! HE'S DONE IT AGAIN! Dirty little bassschtard!!
I get the same feeling.
Did they even take a look with VAR?
And a 100% red card. Feck this guy, it's beef for life.
Got nowhere near the ball and wipes Pogba out yet no pen. He's an absolute weapon.
Once a thug always a thug.
Oliver is also a twat.
Not that the rest of Villa played dirty like Minge, but he consistently awarded them freekicks for small fouls where as we did not get the same
No wonder Villa have a great defensive record if they can get away with dirty tricks like these all the time

Maintaining his 100% shitehouse record against us I see
Prime example of VAR being feckin SHITE.
Fecking get rid of it.
The game wasn’t broken before it ffs, I mean we all still loved football before this festering turd was smeared across the game didn’t we?
