Subbuteo Controversy
Posted this in the Cellar but it took me ages so thought I'd put it somewhere less hidden away.
Swansea City Subbuteo Club have been accused of foul play after one of their players ruthlessly kicked the ball at the head of an opponent.
Manchester United Subbuteo's star striker was minding his own business when the viscious attack occured.
The United player was knocked unconcious by the dispicable act and was treated for several minutes by medics.
Wayne Loony tried to convince the referee that the Swansea player should have been sent off but only a yellow card was shown.
It was hardly in the spirit of the festive period.
Experts in the SKY Subbuteo studio were outraged by the incident and called for the Swansea player to be put back into his team's box for several weeks.
Ex United Subbuteo player Dwight Yorkshire was almost reduced to tears and being an upstanding model citizen, called the Swansea defender a liar.
One ex-Liverpool Subbuteo and Tottenham Subbuteo player blamed players' growing hostility towards each other on the example set by certain individuals in the Subbuteo Premier League.
In his after match interview, Manchester United Subbuteo Club's manager said it was the most dangerous thing he'd seen on a table football pitch in many a year.
He also claimed it could have led to the death of his side's Subbuteo player.
However, some fans mocked the incident. This was no more apparent than on the Manchester City Subbuteo Club fans forum, Bluemoon where the scumbags gathered to mock the stricken star.
A minute's silence will be held at all Subbuteo venues around the country before the Boxing Day matches.
The games governing body are sure to look at the incident again and will decide whether to change their own rules again by acting retrospectively despite the incident having been dealt with at the time.
In other news, Russian Subbuteo club Zenit St. Petersburg have already identified thier targets for the January transfer window.....
