Tomas Repka doesn’t handle stress well
By: Bob | September 18th, 2007It has been a few weeks since we last saw a player get tossed from a game and attack someone while exiting the pitch. Taking a page from a well read playbook, Sparta Prague Tomas Repka decided to give a cameraman a love tap before exiting for the showers in a game against Teplice last weekend.
After being hit with a $7,500 fine today, Repka defended his actions thusly:
“At the end of the game I was under great stress and under the impression of suffering a great injustice,” Repka explained in a statement.
Let this be a lesson to us all. Nothing relieves stress more than punching a dude who is just innocently doing his job. If Repka were smart he’d call up Nike and try to turn his moment of anger into a commercial campaign.
The fine, by the way, is the third that Repka has received since he returned to Sparta from West Ham last year. He was docked money for giving a one-finger salute to Teplice supporters last season and for calling an opposing manager a “cretin”. The conversations he has with his teammate Pavel Horvath sure must be enlightening.

That dude always seemed mentally unstable when he played at West Ham. Now I know that my suspicions were correct.
