Latest Tackle Ever: Celtic Captain Leads by Example (Video)
by Mad Dog and Glory on October 30th, 2009 94 words | 3 commentsThanks to Dirty Tackle for bringing this to our attention. Watch as Celtic Captain Stephen McManus sets his teammates a fine example by putting in one of the worst challenges you will ever see. It’s not that the tackle is malicious or indeed particularly violent, its just so damn matter of factly delivered as if to say “I can’t be bothered to chase after you, So I am just going to chop you down where you stand!”

Good decision by the ref.
Football has become so cynical, defenders just take the yellow card, and stop promising attacks all the time. Hopefully other refs will follow his lead and make defenders think twice about cynical tackles, eventually allowing attacking football.

mcmanus is probably the most over rated celtic defender in the pat 20yrs this tackle might be is worst but it is not uncommon for him well done ref for being brave enough to change decision from yellow to a red card especially at celtic park in front of the baying bigots
