Worst tackle ever ??

Post by bobo the clown » Thu Feb 14, 2013 7:38 pm

I was searching google for something & came upon this.

Maybe the worst tackle of all time .... & matched by the worst referee decision in the past 6 centuries.

Amazing .... & I think he played for Horwich for a while.

Anyone recall any worse one ?

Although I would not agree with it I think this one is generally considered the worst ever. (at least he did Maradona)

I can't Youtube 'dirty tackle' at work but I think you'll go a long way to beat Angry Grunt's nomination of Schumacker v Batiston.

Not only does he actually nearly kill him I think the way he does a sort of cowardly, backwards, chicken walk away from the ref just adds insult to injury.

What about the one Vinnie Jones got sent off for after about 4 seconds?

Jeder zeit sie ist in der nehe von Berlin,
Jeder Abend, Jeder Tag,
Sie werden finden alles! (Hoy!)
Machen der ruckwarts huhn waltz!

Is I think how the popular song goes.

Tell you something considering I only got a 'U' in German (hey kids, these were the days when you could FAIL things! How about that?) I can still remember loads of German words and could still put together an 'Ello 'Ello worthy bit of sprachen sie deutsch.

The other week I was reprising my famous Rolf Harris impression for some German tourists and managed to cobble together a passable translation of Waltzting Matilda.

Turns out it's a German song originally.

What the hell was I on about?

Oh aye, bad tackles. Schumi...yes.

Any Ev'nin, Any day,
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

Wondered why I couldn't find the Schumacher one - thought it was Oliver Khan...Certainly up there with the best.

Nigel De Jong on Xabi Alonso was pretty up there too.

Half of the others on here wouldn't be bookings in the Salford Sunday League.

May not be the worst tackle ever but still pretty bad. Not even a yellow card according to the ref.

This tackle brings this thread (and the players career) to an abrupt end. This wins (? :conf: ) hands down.

Don't watch this if you're squeamish. With the sound off, it's bad enough. With the sound on, you get the full effect. You have been warned.

Mind you, if circumstances had been slightly different, this could've been worse. Cantona could have broken this bloke's femur. :crazy:

I really can't see why Leeds thought him as being a risky signing.
