In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
It was a horrific injury from a pretty innocuous challenge. No intent from Shawcross at all.
Like MOTD showed, Ramseys foot was stuck in the turf, so even that makes any forceful contact on his leg potentially dangerous, and thats what happend, an unintentional challenge that led to his leg being broken.
It was more the fact his leg got caught in the turf, rather than the challenge itself

So any news yet about the injury?
No.
Never a red card.
But I bet Wenger saw that one alright
Not acceptable ? It's football you fecking dickhead - accidents happen - even fecking schoolboys will tell you that.
Unlike Vermaelen then, you fecking lying piece of shit.
So are you saying players are going out of their way to injure just your players ? You paranoid, delusional old prick.
Will you be calling for a long ban for Shawcross now like you did for Taylor ?
fecking idiot. I hope their season fecking collapses like it did after the Eduardo incident.
Rant over.

Yet again, the result is punished, not the tackle. It was a yellow, regardless of his injury. Emotion clouds what outcry over incidents like this can do to the sport as a whole.
If we take tackles like that out of the game then it's a fecking shambles. He went in hard and fair, and Ramsay was too quick for him. When you nick the ball like that, you get kicked. In this instance, the outcome was particularly severe. You'll see that same tackle a dozen times tomorrow, and of the mistimed ones, probably none will injure the player as badly. This is still a contact sport, despite the fact it suits people to try sanitise it within an inch of its life.

fecking wanker - wait til 'does' Rooney then you'll happy with 'accidents'.
rip
Agreed. It's a tackle that happens often and 9 times out of 10 a yellow card is given and the guy gets up seconds later.
Grow up you child. It was an unfortunate accident, but from what I saw there was nothing malicious in it. I'm surprised you saw it anyway.
Didn't look intentional in the slightest to me, just one of those things unfortunately.
He didn't 'do' Ramsey, it was a fecking accident. Don't listen to your delusional manager.
Unfortunate accident my fecking arse, he clattered Adebayor over the ball and off the pitch last season and put him out too.
Go to sleep you bell end. You need some rest.
Have you even seen the fecking tackle?
I can't stand these cowards challenges Peter, and I think offenders should be banned for months and years, not games, for risking the career of a fellow professional. I thought Taylor's challenge was disgusting, and thought Wenger had every right to be angry and speak out
Not this time, it wasn't a particularly bad challenge today, Ramsay got very very unlucky. I'm surprised you think different having seen it

Yeah both of them. Have you ever played a game of football?
Even with Taylors last season. You cant honestly beieve there was intent there.
Taylor's was reckless in my view and he caught Eduardo on the ankle. What the feck are you doing catching someone half way up the shin?
Years? Really?
If year + suspensions started to be handed out for reckless challenges, we would see the game turn into something where players would be shit scared of going in for tackles.
Quite being a bitch. It was a tackle you see a 100 times a year.
Be a fecking man and accept that shit happens sometimes.
Dare I say there's something more off the mark then the FA... It's some of the posters on this website.
By the comments here you'd think we should impliment a fooseball type system to avoid all physical play... The tackle wasn't with the intent to injure, nore was Taylors, they didnt want to break legs/ankles, they weren't high-risk tackles, they were unlucky tackles for the victim.
You'd swear he pulled a rifle and shot the lad in the leg, take an advil and move along lads.

Taylor's was about as bad as Gary Speed's on Neville - a late challenge from a slower, lumbering player who had seen better days. No malice there at all.
If you kick high you're going to catch legs and break them. This is not acceptable as you would realise if you'd ever played the fecking game you tosspots.
I can

Yes Rednev, I don't think it's that staggering a concept to be honest. If you're prepared to go out on a football pitch and risk the career of a fellow professional, what right do you have to be out there at all?
I'd want players to be shit scared of going in for reckless nasty challenges. Might improve defensive standards, have them stand up on their feet a bit more often. It wouldn't affect hard, fair tackles, so I don't see why it would make the game any less physical
Its when its a broken leg caused by a tackle, the whole thing gets emotional.
Would Arsenal fans be treating Shawcross like some kind of criminal if they had gone for a header, Ramsey got there first and Shawcross knocked him and he landed on one leg, causing his knee to jar and him to get a cruciate knee ligament injury?
I don't think so.
There was no intention to hurt, he went to kick the football away to stop Ramsey from passing it forward. Ramsey nipped in first and the kick that was aimed for the football got the player.
I keep saying that it was only mistimed,
It wasnt over the ball or studs up and he didnt jump into the tackle. He went to kick the ball and got the player.
Is there video of this yet?
Shawcross didn't kick high or go in high or have studs up or anything. Its just an unfortunate accident.
I've had my leg broken by a shit tackle mate, you need to put away the whole experience card to back up your point because it makes you look like a child.
The fact of the matter is: RYAN SHAWCROSS DID NOT WANT TO BREAK HIS LEG... You want an example of intent? Go look up some Roy Keane vids mate, there's your fecking intent.
Just like Eduardo you lot seem to be the only ones with any sort of opinion of the incident because it was your player who had the leg broken... If that was the case the footballing world would be blind too because your lovely manager doesn't see the cock below his stomach.
I feel fo both parties, the Arsenal players for going through that, young Ramsey who will now go through the most mentally and physically demanding year of his life, and to Mr.Shawcross who, might I add, is also very young.
Both players went in with a lunge, Ramsey a literal 10th of a second before Shawcross and it happened, poor impact and poor luck... Sol Campbell represents you lot well with the way he reacted to the incident.
Watch that fecking cnut scream at the lad.
I hope the ban is only 3 games so you twats can cry injustice for the rest of the season, I wish Ramsey the best as does the entire footballing world, supporters and player alike, but when you bitch and argue over points that can't be argued you look like a bunch of self-centered, selfish loons.
With all due respect to you as a poster, because I do rate you mate, you're talking shit.
If you're going to break an Arsenal players legs...because that seems to be the implication here. Why the feck would you pick Ramsey, or Eduardo? Why not pick Fabregas, or Robin Van Persie...oh, wait, the Italian national team did that already right? So I guess they were against Arsenal winning the league as well.
Arsenal fans are working overtime to take that delusional title away from the scouse.
It's a contact sport. Shit happens. Live with it, Learn from it, Let it go already...

Good post Mr Searl.
Exactly.
Arsenal fans are being completely
over it.Everyone hates it when players get bad injuries, especially super talented young ones. However they need to step back and watch it again.
There isn't a massive super-conspiracy to destroy Arsenal. Bad tackles happen. They are more likely to happen when you play the way Arsenal do, when you have players with quick feet they are more likely to suffer late challenges. Some of the time it may be to slow them down or try and scare them (If we are being honest, an example was Gary Neville against Jose Antonio Reyes) other times it is just that the player is too quick for the defender.
It just disgusts me, I've had 3 Arsenal-supporting mates come to yell today because I don't think Shawcross wanted to hurt him, as if that's the only way we should look at things.
I've been called everything from biased (Given the fact he played with our academy) to delusional, and i've stayed mum about it, the last place I'd expect to see it was on here but since I did, out comes the rant.
Didn't kick high? Then how did he catch him high up the shin? You're talking nonsense.
news flash: you're posting on a football forum
Watch it, they both have a lunge, gravity takes a foot DOWN.
You'd swear he was training for a blackbelt the way you're going on.
Ramsey beat him to the ball which left his leg exposed to the kick, it's unlucky, nothing more.
Unsporting Behaviour: "Diaby shouldn't be playing football", Arsene Wenger
We are tremendously sorry for what happened to Ramsey mate, but calling for Shawcross' ban is pissing in the wind. You'd lose Gallas, Diaby, Song and probably Fabregas who had all tried similar tackles.
