Herbert*

And yeah, Townsend has said he took no offence. Rooney said it's ridiculous. Jol and big Sam have said the same. The media are still trying to whip up a storm though.

 

[DaGaffer]

I'm getting so fucking tired of this bullshit.

un-fucking-believable

 

[Shagrat]

hasn't taken long for the pre world cup team assassination in the press to start has it.

fucking red tops are a joke.

 

[Everz]

And this is why, our media needs to all fucking die of aids. ;/

 

[rynnor]

Its a sad world where everything is sifted for potential racial offense regardless of intent

You called it.

"A letter of complaint from a pressure group is sent to the Football Association demanding that England boss Roy Hodgson attend a 'race appreciation' training course after details of a joke he told about a monkey in space were made public.
Peter Herbert, the head of the Society of Black Lawyers and who also runs the new Race For Sport organisation, has sent a four-page letter of complaint to the FA, saying it was wrong to declare the matter closed.
Hodgson, who apologised if any offence was caused, has expressed his frustration and anger that his side's achievement in reaching the World Cup earlier this week has been overshadowed by the details of the joke he told in the dressing room at half-time against Poland.
The FA was quick to give Hodgson its full backing over the joke about a monkey in space, which it is believed he used to illustrate why his players should give the ball to winger Andros Townsend."

Peter Herbert does more damage to race relations than any other single person in sport. The man needs to shut the fuck up.

I think Roy should attend a training course.. for comedy.
That joke is barely better than a fart joke.


I can imagine everyone in that training room thinking "that's a bad joke, should I laugh???"

 

[Deebs]

This political bullshit really pisses me off, if I want to turn round to a player and say "you run like a mongy" or "you acted like a fucking gibbon" I should not have to give a fuck about their colour, race, birth place, intelligence. Next year the words "white", "black", "brown" will be banned from the English language.

Diaby has just had to have another operation and is now out till March. He has 18 months left on his deal and I know that is a big reason he keeps on going but he is still showing a massive amount of character to keep fighting back from these injuries.

Or that he is getting paid shit loads while he can con arsenal that he will actually play again

 

[caLLous]

Unlucky.

 

[miri]

Would anyone mind PM'ing me some decent streaming sites they use atm? Can't find a good Chelsea stream for today >

 

[georgie]

Ooooohhh.

<related to the Chelsea v Cardiff game btw>

 

[ileks]

Arsenal just scored an absolute beauty.

 

[miri]

Hahahaha. Get fucked Cardiff.

 

[ileks]

Flamini off and Arsenal are already looking dodgy.

 

[Raven]

classy...

 

[soze]

Sounds like Chelsea were allowed a goal where the keeper was bouncing the ball. I though that was was disallowed and I remember Terry Henry getting booked for it.

 

[miri]

Ball wasn't under the keeper's control? Idk, he took the ball and didn't touch the keeper. No idea of the technical rule but I can't see how it can be a foul.

In other news.. ETOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Embattle]

The rule is that bouncing the ball means it is still in the keepers possession and can't be touched but if he throws it even slightly forward it is up for grabs.

 

[miri]

Seems pretty silly to me, surely the keeper should be punished for being a tool and bouncing the ball when an opposition player is stood next to him. Regardless, the ref fucked up in that case.

 

[Hawkwind]

You beauty Ramsey. Two great looking goals from Arsenal today.

 

[miri]

Good MoTD tonight then.

Best Fantasy day of the season so far as well for me I think, can't get on the site to check though.

 

[miri]

Oh dear Utd.

 

[Hawkwind]

Ramsey is on fire today. Takes something to outshine Ozil.

 

[Aoami]

HOW DOES IT FEEL UNITED FANS!?!?! YOU FUCKS

 

[Raven]

Not so many UTD fans round these parts these days

 

[Bahumat]

Didn't see the game but know the result. Can't really comment till I watch it
