Abel tried punching one in on Saturday & elmo's had a go! I suppose if you're gonna cheat? Do it when it matters!
Little? Nowt he can do about that. Dirty cheating? Every ****er does it. Drug taking? Let he who is without sin...
I liked her earlier stuff. Not so keen on the songs she puts out now tho. Plus her face is a bit weird with all the surgery and her clothes are a bit age inappropriate. Was funny when she got pulled down the steps by her cape.
Little? He is. It's descriptive. Dirty cheating? He was. No everyone does not. Maybe in your world. Drugs? He did. Plenty haven't. Let he who...get to ****. Apologist ****.
In terms of the handball and drug taking, both criticisms could be aimed at current City players. I assume everyone is as quick to abuse Elmo and Jake? In terms of Maradona as a player, he's probably the greatest of all-time. What he did with distinctly mediocre Napoli and Argentina teams is unlikely to ever be matched.
Little? He is. It's descriptive. Read it again; I didn't say he wasn't. Dirty cheating? He was. No everyone does not. Maybe in your world. A lot of people do, in my world and yours. He wasn't unique in this. Drugs? He did. Plenty haven't. Let he who...get to ****. Squeaky-clean eh, Happy? You don't even drink?Remind me not to arrange a night out with you any time soon... Apologist ****. Oh my. Tough stuff from Hapster.
On the posts that have been deleted. Once Thatcher gets a mention all posts disappear, it's a sure fire way for the thread to turn to ****.
I cant believe people focus on one ****ing handball....hundreds of famous players have 'cheated', nay probably all of them have. He shouldnt be hated for trying it, Elmo tried it, the difference is Maradona got away with it. So hate the ref and / or lino, but not him. And anyone, surely anyone, can see the genius (if ****e defending) of his other goal that game. Incidentally his other great goal in that tournament was in a match with one of the best football photos of all time, the one of him facing a line of bewildered Belgium defenders. Doesnt matter about the misleading circumstances, it's a great pic: http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2014/jul/05/diego-maradona-belgium-famous-photo And as some have said earlier, he played at a time when all the best playmakers were basically hacked to pieces by some ****ish hairy brute. He'd get far, far more protection now and would be even better than he was, which is the best player ever.
This particular cheat knocked us out the World Cup, so it's hardly a surprise that it bothers England fans more than any other. That second goal was incredible though, it's got to be up there with the best individual goals of all time.
I know that's why it's remembered, but it's selective. What about Owen's swan lake style leap that cheated the Argies back?
I know you're being tongue in cheek but some people actually feel like that - when we're cheated the offender should be shot but when we cheat it's to be applauded!!
