    See post above.

    Nowhere near the protection of Gerrard and John Terry though.

    Protected more you mean.

    Least them two could actually tackle. 90% of gingers were straight reds that wernt given cos the ref fancied a glass of wine with the alchy afterwards. <laugh>

    "Of course I can tackle. There's plenty of evidence of me being able to tackle.
    "I was just getting people back. If someone got me early in the game, it was always in the back of my mind that I needed to get them back." - Paul Scholes

    Came back after that admission and still got away with it! <laugh>

    I remember near the start of one season, I think it was 2008/9 when Livpl were playing (can't remember who) and Stevie Me jumped over someone's leg (a clear foot over btw) which happened to be a player who'd gone down in front of him in the box and he got awarded a pen. The scouse pundits in the studio tried to claim no contact was needed to award the pen ffs <laugh>

    That's the one. I was going to say Sheffield United, it was in the back of my mind but couldn't be sure.

    Fcking embarrassing decision that.

    Could have mentioned that not many teams actually beat Liverpool... indeed some get smashed on their own patch ... but that would have been much too self indulgent <whistle>

    He's merely suggesting that ALL Leeds fans are prejudiced without any hint of irony or self-awareness.

    Cool stuff.

    Why? It's a pen, pretty obvious that Jagielka kicks his trailing leg and causes him to fall over.
    Stevie Me is still a **** though.

    Do you think it's a skill he learnt or something he was born with?

    It was accepted by all concerned he never touched him. Hence why the scouse pundits trying to claim at the time contact wasn't required.
