Bassette Shithouse Appreciation (8 Viewers)

[AFCCOVENTRY]

I didnt realise it was a punch at the time, I thought he just pushed him round the throat.

To be fair it happened so quickly but this is the best picture yet.

To be honest,. I am not a fan of the "shithousing", but it's the rank hypocrisy that annoys me. Bassette didn't do anything exceptional, even on the "shithousery" scale, yet he seems to be being called out for it by the same fans who undoubtedly look at their own players as if butter wouldn't melt whilst playing fast and loose with the rules.

Bassette clearly wound up Sheffield Utd and a player reacted like a complete numbskull, no-one to blame but himself. As for the reaction of Sheffield Utd players, coaches and fans, that is the real embarrassment.

Judging by Carr's comments, and Robins creating of a quite "fair" style of play that clearly still permeates the club, something will be said to ensure Bassette channels his "aggression" in the right way, but timewasting, keepers feigning injury are also "shithousing" yet nothing is said, anyone says anything about Bassette, I will tell the hypocritical cont to get fucked.

I mean he did elbow drop him just before this TBF.

Love the Hound and let him off the leash. He has the potential pedigree to fill Viks boots. He will run all day and bite the CBs ankles. As for the blunts dogging him on their forum, fuck them thick northern monkeys .

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Trouble is you can see opposition managers being aware now and telling his own players to wind bassette up. He will react.

 

[FergieTheFinisher]

he didn’t say any of that

Hmm either you did not see the full interview or you are just trying to be contrarian.

Firstly, I did not give a direct quote or try to imply that it was.

Secondly, early on in his interview and also again at the end he accused our players of not putting effort in and directly comparing their attitude to his super bunch that always give everything they have every game. He also indirectly accused them of being responsible for Robins being sacked. That is making a moral judgement of our players over his.

Thirdly, most of the interview was about Bassette trying to con the ref, leaving one on his players, and behaving in a way we call shit housing. That is fine, even largely true, but he then goes on to talk about speaking with his players about how they can’t react to these awful tactics in a way that implys they are above it and never do it themselves. This is hypocritical nonsense, It was hypocritical regarding yesterdays game and taken over the season totally laughable.

But believe what you want…..

Who let the dog out?

Their local rag, the Star has an ex player of theirs saying Bassette would be having his food through a straw if he’d winked at him after getting Anel sent off, Just another example of that strange mentality that violence solves everything, Once a thug, always a thug,

Be brilliant if they zoomed in and saw that one of the culprits, jostling and throwing punches was Frank Lampard.

 

[peteCCFC]

Laying here shocked that no-one has started a thread suggesting really uncatchy songs for him....

 

[rexo87]

Think that performance from Bassette was a reaction to him getting elbowed within 20 seconds of coming on the pitch against Boro. Will have learnt from those 20 seconds you have to be good at those dark arts in this league

 

[covboy9]

He’s a confident boy but the whole incident was poor, nobody can moan tho cos every team does this sort of stuff and cheats now

 

[dadgad]

Interesting take that under Robins we were too soft, didn’t mix it, pressurise refs, no shithousing.
Small wonder then why the hound played so few minutes. Hard to drop now, he’s mustard!

I’m sure Kastaneer was in on it

 

[Johhny Blue]

100% milked it. As @Otis said it’s totally unnecessary as the offence is worth a red anyway.

Got a long way to go for convincing of his actual footballing ability though.

Agree with this. I’d love to see him develop as far as football skills go. A few naive moves and decisions in the game today but love the passion. That’s exactly what we need right now. He’ll come through well if he can be coached.

 

[wingy]

He got himself sent off. He should have shown more self-control.

He'll be a marked man though in refs eyes, they'll be aware his antics I think and not everything will go his way.

Well if we need Norm a new strike partner then…
