no carragher vs neville though, or will they both be recovered (is neville even injured? or is he so old he has retired now? ) in time?

 

[Everz]

Donny away in the cup, nice trip .

Nevilles okay, but he isn't a regular and never will be now. He's there to give guidance to the younger players, and cover for when we need it. He's still an amazing right back for 45-60 minutes.

Rafael and Fabio have both developed really well, I'd say Rafael will be a regular by the end of this season. Harder for Fabio with Evra to contend with.

Without Van Damme, he's going back to belgium, to the his old team archrivals.. motherfucker

 

[Cerb]

You know the way something like 7 of the starting 11 players in spains world cup winning side played for Barca....I wonder....do you think Messi is jelous that he isn't from spain when they are all in the drssing room remembering the WC?

 

[megadave]

Maybe he's content with being the best player in the world.

Messi is a better player, everyone knows it.

If you want proof, just ask Marc

What a weekend, see Mick, thats whats happens when you be positive and get 2 up front. SEB should start vs Blackburn.

And kudos where it due, nice work switching in Hennessey, good reminder of why the lad has been one of the best players to come out of the academy in years.

Also ZUUBBBBARRR <3, god we've missed him in defense.

and vlad

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy hails the club's supporters:
"They have stuck with us and they stuck with us today. At 2-1 it would have been so easy to turn on the team, but they didn't and I think they didn't because the players have showed such good application and spirit."

Was a decent game of football, didnt think either side really deserved to win it, just happened that your guys got the late goal, some absolutely shocking defending from both sides too, hoped your season would pick up. Just hoped it would start next week.

BBC News - Panorama: Three Fifa World Cup officials took bribes

What a joke FIFA is.

A few points, we'll be very lucky to win the world cup bid now, however the bid should be judged on it's merits. The press should have freedom and have nothing to do with the bid.

This story is not just confined to the English press, it's an easy reason for corrupt officials to ignore England's bid.


The fourth Fifa executive named in the Panorama programme is Trinidad and Tobago's Jack Warner, one of the organisation's vice-presidents.

Panorama says it has seen e-mails and an invoice which show Mr Warner was involved in the procurement of $84,000 worth of 2010 World Cup tickets.

The e-mail trail suggests the tickets were destined for the black market but the planned deal - including 38 tickets for the final in Johannesburg - collapsed because the touts were not prepared to pay the asking price.

In 2006, Panorama revealed that Mr Warner had sold tickets on the black market for that year's World Cup tournament in Germany.

Jack Warner a more evil man than Sepp Blatter.

Messi is brilliant, a genius. So is Ronaldo.

 

[Ormorof]

yeah, frankly if they have any proof they would be suspended

but i doubt im the only one to have been cynical whenever FIFA has talked about "Fairness" or "Honesty"

they need some IOC style self-examination

Football is an old boys network so its no surprise the governing body is full of the most scheming manipulative members of that network is it?

no surprise Jack Warner's on the list. He's a dodgy character. Uses his vote to manipulate all sorts of situations for his own gain.

Im saying nothing cos when I spunk all over messi on here it comes back to bite me on the arse and I dont want that on tonight of all nights!!

So feckin nervous

And Cerb, im sure messi is both jealous and proud of his team mates. Sure he would have loved to have won the world cup and join in the celebrations with his closest mates, but on the other hand, I bet hes chuffed to bits for them. Im sure there will be some ribbing in the dressing room from the spanish players.

I like the way FIFA tried to blackmail the UK "allowing Panorama to do this story will damage your chances of getting the world cup"

Shove it up your arse, bunch of corrupt wankers.

Agree. I fail to see what exposing corruption has to do with a countries ability to host a world cup

Just Jack Warner doing the only thing he knows - threats and blackmail.

Sweepstake on the first ronaldo dummy spit? I say 6 minutes

 

[Wonk]

And so it begins.

I hope Dani Alves gets sent off within the first 5 minutes for being a prick.

 

[Ch3tan]

Should coincide with Barca's first bout of cheating.

 

[Ch3tan]

Snoop(d) (thanks Chris Kamara) alert, C Ronaldo.

 

[Marc]

Nah, we will leave that to the Translator

 

[Vladamir]

I hope he gets sent off for looking like a monkey ****

 

[Marc]

I hope he gets sent off for looking like a monkey ****

Will you still love him when he signs for Chelsea?

 

[Vladamir]

We've already got one right back who can't defend, why do we need another

 

[Cerb]

Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho: "When I went to Barcelona with Chelsea or Inter it was fun, but now it will be even more fun. Barcelona have won everything but it never won the Champions League in the Bernabeu and maybe in another 30 or 40 years they'll get another chance to do it."

haha a low blow by the translator!
