Should Aguero have been sent off for grabbing the lines-woman's neck? I think so.
In both our losses this year I think we should have been playing against 10 men for most of the games. Mane seemed to go out of his way to elbow Tierney in the neck/ face.
And Aguero should have gone. It is about time that we men understood that you cannot touch women in the same way you might touch another man. This was her workplace. Even if Aguero is a nice guy and he wouldn't do it if he had the time again, the incident needed to be punished.

I don't think it matters if it's a man or a woman you should not be grabbing touching pushing an official no matter what. A yellow card in my opinion.
Obviously because Sian is female there are potentially other issues that could arise and on that I would say no one should behave towards Sian any differently than they wouid to an openly male gay official.
Sian Massey is an excellent official who just happens to be female and she deserves the same respect and treatment from players as they would a male official.

I don’t think it was a sending off, he didn’t do it aggressive, it was an arm on his shoulder that’s nothing.

Was disgusting, he was in her face then grabbed the back of her neck, very intimidating and in my opinion he wouldn’t have acted that way towards a male officia
Maybe not a sending off but I have daughters so I think his team mates should step up and give him a kicking after training 😂l.

I’m sure the fuss is because it’s a woman. The rules are clear on this and it in no way looked aggressive. Seemed pretty straight forward to me, in a world of equality, I don’t think we should single out Sisn for special treatment, it’s disrespectful to her as an official. I’m sure if it was a male official then the fuss would have been watered down.
We should be concentrating on dangerous tackles etc not this and Arsenal shouldn’t use it as an excuse fir a timid performance.
I too have a daughter - I just want her treated equally.

My point is he wouldn’t and hasn’t laid a hand on a male official so why does he think it’s acceptable? If it were my oldest daughter she would have broken his nose! If it were a male official he would have pushed his hand off but it seems Sian feels she can’t do that for some reason
No player should lay a hand on an official male or female.

From a women's perspective I thought Sian acted with complete professionalism. Well done young lady :) she is a flag bearer and hopefully many more young women follow in her footsteps. And yes, if she hadn't been so disciplined, she would have reacted, as women are (unfortunately) hard wired to react in situations where they feel threatened. Hopefully this will change as true equality becomes the norm in all aspects of society. Thanks guys for understanding xx.

People should keep their hands to themselves unless with the other persons clear permission to do otherwise. I don't see why that's a difficult to respect at all.
20 Oct 2020 17:40:39
You are right - I thought she was brilliant in how she didn’t respond / play act etc. Business as normal.
Her reaction deserves more spotlight than the players.

62 - if you were in a room with Callum. No way you will do as you say 😂.
20 Oct 2020 17:59:44
True SY mate but Calum likes me touching him :-)
20 Oct 2020 18:18:07
🤛 😂😂😂.
20 Oct 2020 18:23:38
Only in your head does he like that 69 that won’t stand up in a court of law, plus you’ve been given numerous police warnings about touching people and in particular the 50m court order I was granted you’ve abused, just because my garden is 51m long you can’t hide in the bushes at the end anymore 😂.
20 Oct 2020 18:54:22
You'd be surprised where I can hide 377 mate, by the way love what you've done with the down stairs bathroom mate :-)
20 Oct 2020 19:51:37
Is your downstairs bathroom a euphemism?
20 Oct 2020 19:53:47
Thanks mate let me know if you need a flask of tea bringing down 😂.
20 Oct 2020 21:02:19
Hot water bottle would, blanket and a packet of chocolate digestives would be nice mate :-) .
I'm not sure if it's an euphonium are not SY mate but it's beautifully decorated mate :-)
20 Oct 2020 21:11:43
😂😂 the weirdest bit is joking aside I’ve just had a brand new bathroom and kitchen.
{Ed047's Note - be afraid, be very afraid! 😱🤣
20 Oct 2020 21:49:46
I wasn't going to mention the kitchen mate, but to be fair they've done a lovely job in the bathroom all the same :-)
