Bloody Football!

p.s imagine the media witch hunt if Rafa behaved in the manner of Fergsuon did, again, for the umpteenth time.... hahaha.

The media has been licking Fergusons old wrinkley hoop for far to long..........

Crikey Sammi, the sooner they rebuild the checkpoint on the East Lancs Road, the safer we'll all be lol.

Most refs wouldnt even give a yellow at Old trafford for that, or even book arbeola for diving.... Infact they would then add on a few extra minutes for some bonus squeeky bum time, then giggs would chase the ref for an hour or so moaning like the whiney welsh tw... he is, (he could possibly be after the refs wifes phone number though, shrug) Anyway he would moan like an old woman till arbeola gets a 2nd yellow , which would be probably for touching rios bum / licking vidics nipple at a corner or having not adddresed fergsuon with proper title "Sir" - in the tunnel before kick off.

Its a funny old game.

Hmmm Sammi, you clearly know more about the behaviour of footballers (on and off the pitch) than an armchair pundit like me...perhaps you know even more about Vidic's nipples than Ryan?

Yes, I had similar thoughts Stavros. Maybe Sammi's a WAG, but keeps it quiet.

Barcelona 4, AC Milan 0. Exhilarating, glorious football. Barca still have it.

I'd like to see a Barca vs Bayern final. Fingers crossed.

There are times when Messi seems to be on a different level; it is odd that he never seems to shine with Argentina, and can have moments of indifference; yet, when he is acutely aware of the possibilities, he can make a goal out of nothing, and that is the true mark of genius. Yet, this is not a patch on the AC Milan's teams of the 80s and 90s. Weird hairdos and repulsive tattoos may be the order of the day, but when they lose they do look stupid.

UK interest in the Champions League is over, Man Utd have won the Premiership, the rest are scrabbling for scraps and the main residual interest is the dog eat dog battles at the bottom.

Football's all a bit boring, isn't it?

Now rugby, on the other hand..... Are you listening, Ms Valentine?

World cup qualifiers. Fuck. This is the worst Scotland team since Argentina in 1978.

Need scotch. Lots of it.

If you think Scotland has problems what do you think of an England captain who can say 'we didn't play in the second half' but can't explain why. Complacency is the answer, can't be bothered a possible alternative. He himself gave the ball away on numerous occasions, Michael Carrick, whose through balls when they work can turn games, was asleep for most of the game, Milner is ineffective, Lescott also gave the ball away several times, as did Joe Hart who like so many goalkeepers kicks the ball upfield with no idea who is going to be on the end of it, and its usually the opposition. Walcott would have made a difference on the right in the first half, but other than Rooney, who is going to score goals on a regular basis for this team? I think it is now 50/50 that England will qualify for Brasil. A game of football lasts at least 90 minutes and until the England team fights for every second the results will be at best average, at worst, embarrassing.

................. roy hodgson?

[Stavros]

A pithy point, Ms Valentine. Did he even show up in the dressing room? Any chance of Gareth Bale changing his nationality?
