Disappointingly poor by Bain, petulant foul, now missing for what is going to be a big game against Bradford, unless we have a reserve team fixture before then, which he can use to sit out his ban
On the plus side Pele also got the same ban so will miss out against us again unless they've got a reserve team game
This year it’s fine but with the new rules next season any shots above the armpit/mid chest are penalties players like Bain trying to put big shots on will really need to change their technique.
Any contact with jaw/neck etc next season I suspect will be an automatic red regardless so a lot of clubs will have huge focus on how that will change the defending in games. I suppose they’d need to hit at waist height or above and try wrap ball arm after (but not wrap the shoulder or that could be a penalty). Going to be messy.
To my original point though, it’s great to see Bain and Hood put shots on but next season they’ll need to lower them shots or we’ll be seeing players binned weekly. This doesn’t only apply to us ofcourse.
