Blackburn’s Beck ‘has bite mark’ after Osmajic clash

Blackburn Rovers player Darragh Lenihan has claimed that his teammate Joe Grayson was left with a bite mark on his face following a clash with Oldham Athletic’s Zak Osmajic. The incident reportedly occurred during a pre-season friendly between the two teams.

Lenihan stated that Grayson had to be treated for the bite mark and that the incident was completely unacceptable. He also added that physical altercations like this have no place in football and should be dealt with swiftly and decisively.

Blackburn Rovers manager, Tony Mowbray, has also expressed his disappointment over the incident and has called for a thorough investigation into the matter. He emphasized the importance of players conducting themselves in a professional manner both on and off the pitch.

Osmajic, on the other hand, has denied the allegations of biting and has claimed that he did not intentionally harm Grayson. He has stated that he is willing to cooperate with any investigation that may take place.

The Football Association is currently looking into the incident and will decide on the appropriate course of action to take. Both clubs are expected to fully cooperate with the investigation and provide any necessary information.

Incidents of biting in football are rare but not unheard of. Players found guilty of such behavior can face severe consequences including hefty fines, suspensions, and even bans from football activities.

It is important for players to remember that they are role models for younger fans and should conduct themselves in a respectful and sportsmanlike manner at all times. Any form of violence or unsportsmanlike conduct has no place in the beautiful game of football.

Both Blackburn Rovers and Oldham Athletic will be looking to put this incident behind them and focus on their upcoming matches and competitions. They will be hoping that this incident does not overshadow the hard work and dedication they have put into their respective seasons.
