So he's looking at 1-4 match ban then.



Can't see him getting off it somehow.



But what was he supposed to do? Let Ratcliffe continue hitting him?

Having just read the other forum,what a set of whinging morons.



They have very short memories,and your spot on Mick.



York must be chocca with ivory towers.



Daley will be missed,especially by me as i think he is a match winner.



Anyhow,roll on warrington

and as for the fancy dress guys,are you sure

or was it just the booze





No bottle bar yesterday,why?

Oh Obe, there's no getting out of it now...

get yer best frock ready!

Stealth Comic, whilst i aren't going to get into an argument with you and i do consider myself as a rational and honest person, i have watched the video many times and the incident starts with Williams pushing Ratcliffe in the back, Ratcliffe then turns and goes to shove Williams in the chest, Williams then punches Ratcliffe to the head and whilst Ratcliffe is going down he then punches him again, I can honestly tell you that Ratcliffe does not throw a punch and i can imagine that Williams will definately be found guilty tonight, and furthermore the police have reviewed the incident and legal proceedings have been initiated, if the police thought that this was in retaliation then i am sure that they wouldn't proceed with the case.

I do hope that this puts things into perspective, and we can leave the matter to the relevant authorities from now on.

As the incident occurred in Keighley, West Yorkshire's finest would be investigating any alleged offences and we all know on here that after less than a day they will have been lucky to have had a "response" never mind "[ifurthermore the police have reviewed the incident and legal proceedings have been initiated"[/i

Gordano,

If you still have footage of the incident put it on a video sharing site so we can all make our minds up about it.

As for the police being involved, i'm sure they have taken some action by now given Keighley Police station is 200 yards away from Cougar Park.

If you look on the york press web site it is on there already, as i have said earlier, i have no axe to grind with the lad it just sickens me that we have this type of thing in our game, with regards to the police, it was reported in Dewsbury where Danny lives and things can't progress until after the outcome of tonights disciplinary at Red Hall.

Barry Eaton as stated that it was Danny who was the aggressor, I understand he has to back his player, but after you see it you will understand why i say that Daley was the aggressor, the video i have has been broken down into 160 frames and clearly shows that Danny as the flat of his hands on Daley's chest when Daley is throwing the initial punch.

Cheers, I will have a look this evening. But I take it Ratcliffe definately wasn't cowardly attacked from behind like some less respectable York fans are saying?

No he wasn't but neither was he the aggressor as Mr Eaton as implied in the press.

Maybe words were exchanged before the shove,who knows what ,if anything was said.

I don't quite agree that the police will have to wait for the outcome of the RFL disciplinary procedures before they can take any further action. [size=150If[/size the police are taking any action it is incumbent on the RFL to adjourn their enquiries until the criminal enquiry has taken it's course, otherwise the RFL enquiry and everything said during proceedings etc. becomes evidence and everyone at Red Hall becomes a potential witness. I'm sure that they won't want that. Or maybe they do, it wouldn't surprise me.
