No what you should have finished your sentence with was "he got up and was hacked, elbowed, body checked and kicked for another 40 minutes, before the Rangers manager was forced to sub him to protect the lad from one of the Ferranti, Meadowbank, sorry Livingston thugs actually did do the boy properly."
Your team was a disgrace and showed up Scottish football for being stuck in the dark ages, at a time when the game is crying out for skill along come the Scottish thug mentality where by trying to cripple lads is showing them what's what.
