I am not criticising him…. He knows what he is doing. So let’s all get off martinellis back because he is just wanting to get on with the game and stop the time wasting.And good for him, it's very clever and doing what he can for his team even injured. This shouldn't be a criticism of the lad just because he's a kopite.
I think both things can be true: Martinelli was wrong, and Bradley, whilst trying to help his team, was injured badly.I am not criticising him…. He knows what he is doing. So let’s all get off martinellis back because he is just wanting to get on with the game and stop the time wasting.
Both knew what they were doing and trying to help their team.
Just because Bradley can’t run properly doesn’t make him the victim in this situation
But martinelli was trying to help his team….. that’s not wrong.I think both things can be true: Martinelli was wrong, and Bradley, whilst trying to help his team, was injured badly.
Throwing a ball at an injured player and dragging him around seems a bit crap to me, and you'd be fuming if it was ours.But martinelli was trying to help his team….. that’s not wrong.
And many many people would have done the same thing regardless how self righteous they try to be
I honestly don't think many people would have done what he did. It was pretty obvious it was probably a bad injury so it was ridiculous behaviour to be honestBut martinelli was trying to help his team….. that’s not wrong.

See it all the time…. Players trying to pick ‘injured’ players up.Throwing a ball at an injured player and dragging him around seems a bit crap to me, and you'd be fuming if it was ours.
Obvious to all those watching it on tv and getting some replays of him pulling up.I honestly don't think many people would have done what he did. It was pretty obvious it was probably a bad injury so it was ridiculous behaviour to be honest
Why don't you write a song about it?Go back watch the video….. martinelli sees him clear the ball then turns his head to see where the ball goes whilst Bradley falls.
Please tell me how he is supposed to know it’s a serious injury and not time wasting?
Because Bradley or those loveable reds say so..
No not at all… we all have the benefit of seeing several replays and the beautiful Neville tones and verdict.
So I stand by it…. In that situation many would have done the same. I guarantee you that a Liverpool player would have done exactly the same at the other end of the pitch…. Or are they above that?

Many don’t watch it again, they just listen to the media and it’s instantly an utter disgrace.He clearly looks down to see if he is on the pitch and moves himself back onto the pitch fully to make sure the game is stopped.
Not the actions of someone badly injured.
Martinelli sees him do that and then puts his knee on him.
If you are going to rim theon here at least watch it again.
Victim FC strike again.
