It was your game I was more worried about not Villa. Shows how much I bloody know. PS. Can we keep Rose? Pretty please.
im sorry to say this is the result of altering the game from a contact sport to a game engineered by sky and fifa because of money, as a true football player im sure the absolute garbage our game has become , due mainly to at first a few players play acting in the late eighties to what is now a farce, almost a disease which has enveloped our sport we are the mugs, its ten years to late to save our football ,and we all stood by and watched. all depends on who sits on the panel and what bets and hand shakes take place before the review , corruption never i hear you say. but as the saying goes you live by the sword and you die by the sword. A few years ago i had the pleasure of watching ipswich town on a regular basis with the two dutch midfielders arnold murhen and frans thijssen , these sort of players were a revelation to watch , and that being still a time when a tackle was a tackle, these sort of foreign players were blessing to football , both players were not heavily built and took some stick ,but you did not see them cheating like spoilt babies. A certain change has been adopted by lesser players and to a degree lesser clubs into a form of blackmail / blame culture, no different from if i fall over i will sue you ideal ,in the work place at play anywhere you are , the truth is our country is ****ed our future is ****ed and now our football is ****ed to be fair im not surprised that our game has not disapeared up its own arse. but it will dont worry. i love the game and like most chaps of my era it was a way of life , but what i see going on its so sad , you feel like saying to these so called pros , have a look at yourselves you are really are ****ing joke act like men. , wish i could not care or did not care , but this is our sport they have ****ed up , all down to greed
whats with all these sensible well thought out posts your coming on with, somebodies kidnapped mr mclean and stolen his laptop which he left himself logged into havnt they?
Seen at normal speed and from his position then the ref has the call every time. Too much time spent dwelling on these incidents in sloww motion from various angles and high positions. Put the incident the other way round and you would call for a red for the Villa bloke. As a boring ex-ref I disallowed a goal as the forward called "got it" quietly to the defender who ledt it go. Me and those two players were with 3 yards of each other and those people on the touch 50 yards away were doing there swedes. For what it is worth I regret the day football was "softened up" - there was a saying at the time to a moaning player who had just been tough tackled that he could see it coming so could have got out of the way. Sky via Andy Gray have alot to answer for.
to be fair to andy gray he used to put his head in where most didnt, a brave cf , but he was probably the last of that generation before it all went over to the gay game we have now. no room for anything which is not correct according to our visitors, i was always told when in rome dont act like a christain,
The F.A. "It's only Sunderland, not Manchester United.............three game ban then? Agreed gentlemen?.................Done"
i think this is role reversal, thats stupid, its a fact that nat lofthouse had both his eye lids sewn in the open posisition, its true ask the fish....its true
Sess is the only player I enjoy watching for Sunderland, now hes banned I fear for people tuning into Monday nights game and apologies to neutrals now for the lack of quality and Danny Graham.
My point about Andy Gray was that he was the first pundit to analyse incidents almost live and in slow motion, instead of calling it for what it was he used all the Sky technology to make outrageous definitions of what was a fairly innocuous incident. As an ex-player he should have known better but the Sky message had to be got across.
over kill about a simple game, he did get caught up with it all as most did at first. there never used to be a panel to decide anything because there was no desicions to be made, the refs call was the only call , rightly or wrongly. it still could be if we did not have a game so ****ed up by sky and fifa because of money, every prem game is on tape for all to pick over afterwards. If all the cheating ****ers did not exist , and the game was played in a manner that it should be , we would not be talking about sess at all , but hey the game is better for all our technology isnt it ...? its been shagged by all of this combined with a lot of very average players out there. our teams were once divided by who had the most foriegners ie scots , paddys and welsh , all of these teams now struggle to fill the representative teams because of the huge influx of others in the prem and championship teams. not blaming the classic players like the berkamps and such like , but you must admit , there is a lot of crap out there and a lot of cheating crap to boot. whos the biggest culprit apart from the beaver at liverpool, answers please in a zip file as there will not be enough room out there in cyber space . mr angry
