88 yellows and 4 reds in 337 league games.

I rest my case.

Case dismissed.

A holding midfielder averaging one red every 84 games, despite playing for crappy West Ham and you think that makes him dirty?
Ludicrous.
Fletcher's been dismissed one time less in about half as many games.
Vidic has been sent off as many times in about 150 less games.

We need to remember that in Luke's world United players can do know wrong, have their own set of rules and judged differently. Well it's either that our he's stupid, oh - wait.
 
<laugh>No way. I think most United fans who I've come across have criticized Scholes for his poor tackling. Do you have a link for when Luke said that?

Luke, what is happening to your posts? You seemed to be very fair and balanced before. Recently you've been writing a load of codswallop or biased nonsense.

This is the Luke of old - surely you remember his anti-Spurs obsession on the BBC 606. He was making comments like those you describe at the beginning of the season and was banned from accessing the Spurs board because of it - for some obscure reason he was allowed back .... one needs to remember that leopards are incapable of changing their spots.
 
Was Lidls banned? I don't remember that.

Really?

Yes, it was soon after BBC 606 closed down and he started using this site with the same approach as that which he had on the BBC - he appealed to the moderators (Colonel Gadaffi I believe) and because of that appeal and the support (sic) he got from other users his ban was overturned.
 
His game is (and has been) to harry opposition players, break up the play and generally be a nuisance. I said it as a compliment, not a slur. He is the type of player Spurs needed. But you can't deny that he commits a lot of fouls and picks up a lot of bookings. His record of yellow cards- 1 in 3.83 games- is as bad as any of the dirtiest players you could care to mention in the last 20 years.

Roy Keane. 13 red cards, 11 of which were while he was under the protection of the Utd shirt, I believe.
 
Scott Parker isn't dirty. He makes more tackles during a match than anyone in the league, he's bound to pick up yellows with mistimed challenges every now and then. He's by no means malicious just an honest ball-winner.
 
Parker may not merit comparison with Keane, but he still takes few prisoners.

So he's not as dirty as any player from the last 20 years that I may care to mention?

You appear to be mistaking normal, competitive play for the spiteful, dangerous, petulant crap that some players are capable of.
Dirty implies an intent to hurt opponents and a cynical attitude to the game.
I see neither in Parker.
 
God u guys are such vicious ****s. He was just expressing his opinion ffs and it wasn't exactly some majorly controversial one. ****ing hell it's like you're all on the blob 24/7
 
By the way - apologies if this has been asked many times before - but what has happened to your old account?

No one knows. I was using it one morning (I think I had added my predictions for the forthcoming game) went out with the dogs for a while and when I returned was unable to log on and, upon investigation, it appeared that my account had disappeared. I tried to create a new account but was unable to, I assume my IP had been blocked by someone, however I used a neighbour's wifi to create this account.

I have emailed the owners of the site, Syd and Mick, requesting an explanation - so far I have heard nothing. The Spurs mods are also waiting an answer to their requests for an explanation.

It is, however, my belief that a moderator of Fulham's junior club's board is responsible for the account deletion.

Lidls is our resident Man Utd fan, Red.
He makes some bizarre statements at times and has a bit of history with one or two of the forum members on here.
I wouldn't take it too seriously.
 
Is that meant to make sense?

I'm not the one who gets banned for turning most threads into an exchange of abuse and insults, even with other Spurs fans you claim to share some empathy with. Pot. Kettle. Black.

I'm banned from the Fulham junior club board because they don't like being reminded of the truth. You were banned because you were a wum.

Let's just take a look at some of your lot's contributions to the match thread, shall we? gaf71 is still vomiting his ignorant mumblings over it right now...
 
I haven't said that of him either. He repeatedly commits niggling fouls and gets booked as often as other similar offenders- more than almost any other player.

I haven't suggested that he has a violent or nasty streak like Keane or Vieira. I didn't even say he was a dirty player per se! I said he can be at times.

That chippiness from 606 is still there if you stratch the surface, isn't it?

Me calling you on some of your bullshit isn't chippiness, Lidls.
The fact that nobody agrees with you should tell you something.
