Eds has a club ever tried to obtain reparations from another club for injuring a player. A red card hardly seems like enough justice. Origi was vital to the end of our season and his lack of goals could cost us position in the table/ Europa/ champions league.

{Ed002's Note - No, even in a couple of cases where players have admitted that they deliberately went out to injure another player.} t

Is it possible? Would it be a police issue?

{Ed002's Note - It is nothing to do with the police.}

Lads it's important to remember that football is a contact sport and there will be occasions were a player is injured, sometimes through good tackles, sometimes through poor tackles. Carragher said after the match that he was guilty of some poor tackles over the years (we're well aware), but it's part and parcel of the game and in most cases the player isn't trying to deliberately injure the other player. I'm am truly gutted that Origi is out, not just for the team but for the lad himself but let's not get carried away with fines/ punishments and apparent death threats, he's apologised and I'm sure he's genuinely feels bad that he injured Origi. Let's just get behind the rest of the players for the remainder of the season and hope that Origi can celebrate with them at the end.

Thing is these sort of tackles need sorting out by the league with heavy, heavy bans. To walk off showing everyone how proud he is is double bad. What a great example to young kids watching on telly.

First time or repeat offender these tackles ruin careers. Let's see what our wonderful F. A do about it. Think the answer is in my last paragraph to be honest.

excuse me mr Alfie11,I am very impressed with your ability to measure the level of "baddness" (a quite clearly unquantifiable measurement) and then you go as far as to say "double bad" who is it that defines how much badness one man can commit, certainly not you Alfie who are you Alfred Pennyworth or something like that (butler to Batman in the DC Comics and often played by Michael Caine in The Nolan Trilogy (which featured Bale (Christian, not Gareth) as the caped crusader)

going off on a tangent here but close your eyes and go back to the times of our wee Isaac Newton (1643 - 1727, for contextual purposes) and he'd tell you that gravity is not something to be trifled with. don't make any changes while you're there though because even treading on a butterfly could change the course of future events.

Anyway your masked criticisms of the dear F. A. are inappropriate and quite frankly devilish considering how much they've done for football in this once great nation. Zoooooooom OUT.

Zoom, the late Michael Jackson used to measure how bad bad is.

Haha, zoom that made me giggle.

In answer to your question Ohio, yes it can be taken to the police as an assult or even a gbh charge - being on a football field does not make you immune to the charges of the law. However, the chances of you being able to prove it was not an accident, especially given the context, are very very small - even if they say they did in an interview or something that wouldn't be conclusive evidence. So generally it's not worth it - especially not if its an injury that's weeks out.

Source - I've seen it happen once in League 2 football (case was rejected) and twice in Conference football (one ended up with an interview under caution or something similar)

Just for taking it to court, if it was a civil, not criminal, case then you would just need to prove that the action causing the injury was deliberate and that the nature of the contact and tackle was worse than what would reasonably be seen in these kind of games. Obviously an admission of deliberately doing the tackle helps with this. It's very hard to prove as tackles are common in games.
There have been a couple of cases in amateur league stuff in Australia, but they all involved fights rather than just bad tackles.
