Zaha? Let’s remember Masuaku

The Wilfried Zaha spitting incident has been given plenty of exposure on here and we make no apologies for that!

But let’s get something clear, none of us, as demonstrated in the reports and blogs we have posted on the game, are attempting  to camouflage a poor performance by the Irons.

Its a criticism that has been levelled more than once since we first decided to draw attention to the Zaha incident which is frankly utterly disgusting.

Let’s remember Arthur Masuaku was banned for six weeks when he spat directly at a Wigan player during an FA Cup match against Wigan during David Moyes’ reign.

Ok Zaha’s spitting incident may not have been as clear cut as that but events have transpired since which can only bring most to an obvious conclusion.

That he should post on Instagram claiming his innocence before withdrawing it  when a wide angled video of the incident emerged speaks volumes.

OK, nothing can be done about it now by the PL’s rulers but in our view Zaha deserves the bad publicity he is getting universally.

When spitting, the person responsible may be intending to ensure that people know they hold the recipient in the lowest form of contempt.

But the truth is that such behaviour is associated with the lowest of the low and they deserve all the contempt THEY deserve big time.
