46 yr old Russian male seeking coach for short term fun - OTT [R]

I missed that bit to be honest - football coverage in the land where Heskey is king is, well, marginal at best. Make it just Mikel in that instance, then.

Ah but sure they all have a red devil tattooed to one arse cheek, and another of 'property of SAF' on the other, don't they... so what's the difference either way?

 

Mikel got charged for accosting Clattenburg after the match, not for the accusation.

Some are more afraid of letting it be known than others Ashley Young still winning penalties is surely the most blatant sign of a ref conspiracy that can possibly be imagined.

 

It is not as if Chelsea don't have a history of making unfounded allegations against refs

 

True, but I think he should get slammed for the accusation. It's a tricky subject and some might think it unfair given the subject matter, but people will stop taking it seriously otherwise.

Something that sprang to mind was the spate of rape allegations towards Premiership players, circa 2004-07. First there was Ronaldo & RVP close together, and it was big, serious business. But by the time we were on the 10th, 11th accusation in three years people laughed about it as soon as they saw the headline. Had the first two women (who iirc, were found to have been outright lying, had little-to-no contact with either player ever, and were funnily enough nicely recompensed by the newspapers who broke the stories) been absolutely shamed in a very public arena and faced prosecution, I am very confident the string of false accusations that followed would not have happened, and those that were would have been treated more seriously than they eventually were.

I guarantee Mikel making shit up gets referenced the next time a player makes an accusation of racism, and it really does wind me up.

Funny how he good as never got accused of diving until the day he signed for Man United, isn't it?

 

lol at the Chelsea fans trying to act like this isn't typical of them.

 

Ah for feck sake, Des Curran lied to me!!!

Ah well, won't be hearing from him for a while due to visa issues... got out in the nick of time to miss Stereosonic - couldn't be happier !

 

What, details are important? Besides, Anton Ferdinand didn't hear the accusation either, did he? It took a fan to call the police.
I've always maintained it was a ludicrously stupid thing for the club to proceed with, but I doubt Ramires suddenly decided he's going to get Clattenburg fired. He's not the type.

Remind me, what happened to Ian Wright after accusing Schmeichel of racism? Besides, Mikel didn't accuse anyone of anything and the FA stated Ramires was believable, but the whole thing was a mix-up.

That's because no one gave him penalties until he did

 

A reference to football from 15 years ago... on an issue such as this...

Wow.... Just. Wow.

You have outdone yourself!

Yeah, the Mikel bit I got wrong due to lack of coverage in Aus. SSN today though were reporting that the FA said there was absolutely no evidence, which is why it was thrown out. I never heard it was a mix up or believable?

I think you'll find Villa got a decent number of penalties under O'Neill, actually.

 

The FA's conclusion was that Ramires was a credible witness but that it was a mix-up. At least as far as I know - the FA's decision making process is not exactly easy to figure out.

 

I feel like Billy always shows up when something FA related happens.

 

No no, you've got it wrong... when I show up, something FA related happens.

Then, then... SSN lied to me in a sensationalised fashion! I feel so cheap, so dirty, so... so... used.

*Runs off sobbing*

 

Hughes gone just before our match, perfect.

 

I swear I wanted to write something 2-days ago about being surprised that a struggling team hasn't fired their manager just before the United match. But I guess I should've seen that coming. But I really don't understand decisions like this (sacking before Utd match), because they realistically have little chance of getting points and why would they wan't a new manager to start with a possible spanking? They could've just waited for a humiliation on the weekend and then fire him with a very good reason.

 

This is Chelsea's fault. Once they did it, it was easy to fire Hughes. We play them tomorrow, it should be no trouble.

 

New manager wont be in place in time, that is the point of it for me as usually (when SAF isnt high) it is a loss loss for them or any weaker team.

 

Has Clattenburg reported for duty yet? Or we want him for City.

Has 'arry been appointed as replacement ? Probably sacked Hughes at this time so, 'arry doesn't take the Ukraine job.

 

His poor man management should though. He took the best striker in Europe at the time [Milito] and totally destroyed him.

 

At no point was Milito the best in the world at anything other than being named Milito.

 

It was a matter of time for Sparky.

 

Pulis would be proud of that argument
