    One surprising example was a young Jamie Redknapp. I think Jones was playing for Chelsea at the time, and he clattered Redknapp at one point and (I think) poked him in the eye. Redknapp at first seemed to shrink from the challenge, but gradually got into the game, and ended up scoring a last minute winner. Then, in the remaining seconds of the game, he absolutely flew through Jones, kicking him right up in the air. He was only 19 at the time.

    Note how after a hard tackle, with a player getting hacked down, how they got right back up. No rolling , no crying, no clutching a part of their body that received no contact. Bruno Fernandes gets brushed by the laces of an opponent’s boots,he falls to the ground grimacing, crying to the ref. Won his last penalty just like that. Total disgrace how these players behave now.

      If you're meaning the tackle on Cantona then that's simply because Eric Cantona was a machine and would cheerfully have knocked vinnie Jones out.
      He was prevented from doing so simply because he was more scared of what Alex Ferguson would have said..

      IIRC Harford was the man that no one in the Wimbledon changing room dared play practical jokes on. The story goes that Jones cut the end of his socks off, as part of the ritual hazing. Harford returned to the changing room, found what had happened, and asked who did it. Jones didn't dare own up, so terrified was he of the response.

    That Jones *only* had a dozen red cards and a hundred or so yellow, says everything about how the game was back in that era. Realistically, he wouldn't have had any kind of career in football at any level as it is now, as it's doubtful he could have ever finished a game... perhaps even a half. Pre-VAR, he might have been able to get away with some of it - his off the ball antics - but he'd still get sent off for the the type of foul that in the past, he could get away with several times before even a booking. Even many of his legitimate tackles would be straight red cards today, since they were often with dangerous and excessive force.

      He was Welsh only under FIFA qualification rules 'cos he had a Welsh grandparent. But born and grew up in England with an English mum and dad. Makes him English in everyone's book. Be honest, he'd never have got selected for England, would he, so he leapt at the chance to play for international football for Wales when it was offered to him. I think he must have played against Cardiff, Newport and Swansea a few times for Wimbledon though, so at least he had set foot in Wales. Doesn't make him actually Welsh though!

    My favourite Keane moment was when he was wiped out by Alan Shearer, got up and swung for him. Shearer barely flinched and just laughed as Keane lost his marbles.

      Plus, it more of an annoyed slap than a swinging punch. Shearer was tough, for sure, although as a footballer he was best as a big fish in a small pond type.

    I like Vinnie Jones especially when he was up against those arrogant and self righteous men at Old Traggord. Imagine if he were playing for MU his antics would have been worse. The only man in the EPL who stood tall and never feared anybody. They should have made him play for England.

  • @davidcoomber4050

    The entire Wimbledon team were a street gang that played football , the club itself existed for no other reason than to give probation officers Saturday off , Jones was a role model to several generations of sociopaths from the school of hard love, greatly missed 😅

    • @roblewis2595
      @roblewis2595 Рік тому +2

      The best street gang ever though. Cobbled together for mere pennies by today's standards but finished as high as sixth. Always a good watch as well, played football like their lives depended on it and no side has ever had a better team spirit . So-called classier teams rarely got the better of them, which alone says a lot. I certainly miss them, they were the epitome of proletarian footballers mixing it with highly paid artisans, and standing proud. Proper blue collar team.

    Everybody is talking about what big Dunc did to the burglar but nobody talked about what Leonardo Bonucci did. He was at a car showroom with his wife and son then 2 guys came and tried to mob him, WITH A GUN. Bonucci managed to punch that guy and chased him down. The mob guy literally ran and shouted "what are you doing, i have a gun!". That is scary and also funny at the same time
