I’ve been to loads of matches , watching my beloved Skyblues , but THAT double tackle , was I believe, the worst I have ever witnessed .
Surely the club should be sending a complaint in , along with all the televised clips , as Jamie was lucky to hopefully escape with a few bruises today , instead of a broken leg & jaw ?

Was a terrible challenge but - as I’ve said in the other thread I was less surprised that Sakamoto wasn’t sent off for kicking out after he was fouled.

I don’t know if 55 refers to your birth year but if you don’t remember Summerbee on Froggatt, Megson on Emerson, or even Humphrey on Smith then I’m pleased for you.

Youssef Safri playing for us broke Colin Healy’s leg with a terrible tackle at HR and Robert Page knocked out several of Michael Doyle’s teeth in training.

The Summerbee tackle was horrific

Aside from being a violent c***, Nicky Summerbee was one of the worst professional footballers I’ve ever seen in the flesh. One game against us at HR he was continually dribbling the ball out of play.

Nasty, vindictive guy.

It's wasn't as bad as the Sheffield United one at Bramall Lane several seasons ago and there has been worse challenges in other games in recent weeks. Yes they may have received a red, but your are saying it's the worst challenge have ever witnessed? That is either complete hyperbole or you haven't watched much football.

I have seen Bryan Robson and Graeme Souness do far worse tackles on a Coventry midfielder, I am talking wiping a player out at knee height and we didn't even get a free kick, let alone a booking or a sending off. It was a bad reckless challenge; but worst ever? Get a grip

Summerbee, Megson, Souness and Bryan Robson in that order

Has anyone got a clip of this? I was outraged at the time but views can be distorted in the heat of the battle when everyone around is enraged and it wasn't on the highlights reel. Would like a closer look to see if it's as bad as I think I was.

It was probably even worse than you thought.
