Also has been responding to questions, recognises family and has spoken basic French and English. It's looking positive, although it is still very early to tell from scant information.

 

[caLLous]

Well if he's speaking basic English he's already leagues ahead of Keitanz. Good signs indeed!

What an idiot

 

[Scouse]

Got sacked eh? I guess letting off a smoke bomb is much worse than shooting an intern in the leg eh?

And it is. You have to be incredibly unlucky to do even serious harm with firing an air rifle on a leg.
While a smokebomb may have set the place on fire or cause serious harm to someone in the confusion of it going off.

 

[Scouse]

One's assault, the other is letting a smoke bomb off...

 

[Vladamir]

Bah, JT out for tomorrow's game

 

[Cerb]

Bo B​

Bollox. He didn't want having to play getting in the way of him managing, that's all.

The same kind of assault as Steven Gerrard got off the hook for after beating someone up in a bar?

Funny because it's true!

I believe he was acquitted in court, yet Ashley Cole wasn't even arrested for shooting someone?

 

[eksdee]

By the same 'justice' system that found Harry Redknapp innocent and will probably fail to find sufficient evidence to convict John Terry. Say no more. Then again, by your logic, if Cole wasn't arrested then he obviously did nothing wrong?!

 

[rynnor]

In the UK as in many countries you get the kind of 'justice' you can afford...

 

[Scouse]

Like the last two posts. I don't particularly disagree with them. I'll remind you both of the same when arguing against me in some other post tho

Nice that you think Terry's a racist now tho eksdee

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOL, very much depends on the smoke bomb, but if it was a cheap easily obtainable one, like from painball sites and other army rec stores then it would be quite fine toxic free smoke and there is no flame, if it was an army standard smoke bomb, there is still no flame HENCE THE TERM SMOKE BOMB. I put a smoke bomb behind an industrail fan at I-series, maybe i should be hung drawn and quartered for the attempted murded of about 2k people :<

I don't think he's a racist, I just think he's a fucking tool.

 

[Ch3tan]

Yep racist words alone do not a racist make.

Much like suarez, JT is just a cock.

Nope, but I'd hope that if you were a member of staff for the venue that you'd be sacked.
Also I'm curious, do you look back and think "Why the fuck did I do that? I was such a mong." Or is it, "LOLOLOLOLL funniezzzz" still?

 

[Billargh]

Stop being a diving twat Hoilett.

 

[caLLous]

So Blackburn looking like they might just stay up*? Did *not* seeing that coming.

*Although they have got some hellish fixtures coming up.

 

[Aoami]

Leeds 3 - 7 Forest lols. More importantly Saints won and reading and whu dropped points. 5 clear

 

[Shagrat]

The Leeds - Forest game sounds like it was a bit of a mad one. 5 goals scored in a 10 minute spell during the second half lol

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Fernando Torres (3 in 36), Andy Carroll (5 in 31) and Luis Suarez (10 in 36) have scored as many goals in a combined 103 league matches as Lionel Messi has in his last 7.

 

[eksdee]

Messi's only just keeping up with those three rotters? Maybe he's not as good as we thought.

 

[Scouse]

Luis Suarez (10 in 36)

I don't think Suarez is an out-and-out striker. I think he was bought as more of an attacking midfielder to work with Torres (which IMO would have worked brilliantly).

I think we'll see better next year if we can bring in a top quality frontman. Problem there is that we won't have CL football to tempt one with.

You really believe that is the case? Why would we have spunked and wasted 35m on Carroll then? To sit on the bench?

 

[soze]

I heard the only way Liverpool have money in the summer is to sell. And with PSG talking about Suarez I think that money will come from him.

 

[Scouse]

To sit on the bench?

Best place for him tbfh. Clubs make bad signings. LFC have made an epically bad signing in Carroll. We need a top-class frontman who'll guarantee 20 goals a season. Period.

Suarez would link up with that nicely IMO.

 

[eksdee]

Suarez definitely needs to play with a proven goalscorer, Carroll just doesn't make the type of runs to benefit from Suarez's play and perhaps more importantly to create the extra space that would allow Suarez to get more goals. As you say, Suarez and Torres probably would have worked brilliantly. Would be interested if Premier League clubs look at a player like Huntelaar who is having an amazing season and would probably be tempted by a top 10 Prem club. He flopped at Milan and Madrid, but perhaps now he's a bit older he's ready to reall y make the step up? Wouldn't be that costly either I'm guessing.
