Dennis Bergkamp has been charged with improper conduct by the FA over his NON incident with Lee Bowyer, during the west ham game. http://www.thefa.com
I just hope that at some time the F.A. will remove their blinkers and look at someone other than Arsenal. The first ten minutes at Old Trafford in the F.A. Cup concerning RvN should keep them busy for the rest of the season! Oh sorry, I forgot; it's Man.Ure I was referring to!
i didn't get a chance to see the match and from all the stories i have seen i can not figure out what it is he has been acused of. one story said fa rule e1, what is that? i also read that bk10 said he was just protecting the ball so i am really confused to what he might have done can anyone clear it up for me?
I don't know how many of you guys read the gooner, but theres an intresting article that compares the treatment dished out to Arsenal,with that dished out to other clubs, quite amazing reading.
Though the non-flying Dutchman could be a bit more careful at times, this is not a game for wimps (to put it nicely). As a striker, DB10 has had to endure years of abuse in the box, and he did not survive all this time and retain his skills by letting himself get pushed around. Defenders are going to hack him, so he has every right to protect the ball. It's pretty ridiculous, this charge, as I saw the play. That's all the more true when you look at Man U's thuggery. Where does the FA get the nerve???
I bet the people at FA were bored at charging Vieira too often so they decided to pick on Bergkamp now. I wonder who is next on their list...
Motterman, you do admit though some of the things your club has done warrant a review? I dont think we mean to whine, but it's pretty ridiculous how bias Soho Square seems to be towards our club.
Nice one, Jeff. Now all the ManUre trolls can go off and get ready for that massive Worthless clash. By the way, I haven't heard anything yet about England Hero Alan Shearer's elbow in last week's Leeds game. Anxiously awaiting the FA's ruling. And in today's Newcastle/Chelsea game I noticed Shearer said "F--- off!" to the linesman after a call. Looking forward to the FA's consistent application of their "no abuse" policy.
As stupid as I find the FA's insistence on finding Gunners to ban, I was thinking earlier today that at least it's better than being coddled like ManUre... And then I had an awful thought: assuming that over the next few years Arsenal succeeds in putting together the dynasty that they surely have the talent to create, do you think that the FA will start looking the other way when *we're* nasty while constantly and stupidly banning our chief rival (which will be Newcastle; sorry ManUre fans, your team's time is over)? I sure as hell hope not. As ludicrous and frustrating as I find the FA's anti-Arsenal agenda, I'd sure rather have it this way than the opposite.
