That attitude would be acceptable if Bailey ever caused a serious injury to an opposition player through a malicious tackle, but he never has, unlike players such as Sonny Nickle, Vila Matautia, Terry Newton, Brandon Costin, Andy Dannatt etc.

All he ever does is niggle - it is amazing so many people 'hate' him. Only one yellow card in his career as well. Chev Walker got a longer criminal sentence for that incident way back, but he is not vilified. Adrian Morley and Barrie McDermott built careers on their hard-man reputations (aka thuggery) and have done far worse to players from other teams. You have to wonder how much race does come into it.

unpleasant man?!! Do you know him then?

And despite being challenged on it in other threads, you've still to provide a single shred of evidence for your oft repeated "opinion", other than your usual stream of anti-Leeds bile. I look forward to you failing to do so again.

You and Leaguefan aren't related by any chance are you?

Do you? Really??

That's a random one.

Dannatt's not that random, it's based on him smashing Ellery Hanley's jaw with a premeditated elbow during a Hull-Leeds JPT game at The Boulevard.

Fair enough, I'd not long started watching RL when Dannat signed for saints. I didn't really see other teams' games, though. That's probably why I don't remember.

As for Costin, if its the Long incedent you're referring to, there was nothing in it. Most Saints fans say the same.

So shouldn't the title fo the thread be changed then to "What do Saints have to do to get a player sent off"?

But I suppose that does not go with the anti Leeds biased agendas does it?

Oh FFS, why are people that desperate to defend this man that they will clutch at as many straws as possible?

What makes anyone think race has anything to do with it, really? What race is Ben Cockayne? Because he's the same type of thuggish coward as Bailey on and off the pitch and everyone dislikes him as well.

"Iz it coz I iz black?!" No, it's because you're a thug!
