April 18, 201114 yr Yes exactly. Completely different contexts. Also 'p***' is hardly the same as 'f***'. I don't think anything will happen now as there's been no word from the FA, and let's be honest, the whole thing wouldn't have happened if Wenger didn't walk towards Dalglish. I knew there'd be Man Utd fans calling for it though, but I'm sure most sane fans can see the difference between the contexts (and also that it's a repeat offence for Rooney). Actually he said p*** AND f*** 0tDe6ZLM2es Saying f*** to a camera isn't aiming at anyone but to actually tell someone to 'f*** off' is not 'setting a good example' either. Wenger bloody deserved it, yes but if Rooney should be banned for saying f*** to a camera then Dalglish should be at least be fined for telling someone directly to f*** off.
April 18, 201114 yr What a load of tosh! People say that ALL of the time on the football pitch and to each other, if everyone got fined or booked everytime they were heard swearing the refs would be producing no end of cards, you can always hear and see players saying it during the game, it's still no where near the same.
April 18, 201114 yr He shouldn't. Players tell linesmen and refs to f*** off all the time - it's just not caught on camera with the soundman. If he gets fined then so be it. He shouldn't though as its a completely different context. I'd say the same for any other incident like this either. Dalglish was probably wrong ok, but his eyes were at Wenger. If the tv cameras weren't there we'd be none the wiser if anybody actually swore.
April 18, 201114 yr It always looked to me like Dalglish was responding to something Wenger had said. As ever, Wenger was being a bad loser. Let's hope he gets a bit more practise in the next few games then.
April 20, 201114 yr hahahaha - I loved how at first people thought it was Liverpool who got mugged paying the money for Carroll (still a little bit too much I will admit) but now all the emphasis is on Torres :D thelonger he goes on without scoring the better.
April 20, 201114 yr http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/9237/screenshot20110414at144.png Hahahahaha. He is certainly is playing like that at the moment.
April 20, 201114 yr 3-3. Such a good game. Arsneal are such bottlejabs though. They're NEVER going to win anything without some more experience and a decent defence. For all their fancy pass and move, their end product is absolutely dreadful.
April 20, 201114 yr Great game tonight. How many points have Tottenham gained from behind this season?
April 20, 201114 yr Another question would be to ask how many points Arsenal have lost from going in front LOL Absolute bottlejabs. I don't even know how they're that high in the table, their defence is seriously hopeless.
April 20, 201114 yr Basically everything Fabregas said today about the squad is true. I'm actually more worried about Chelsea than Arsenal in the title race to be honest.
April 20, 201114 yr Arsenal have no chance, but they could have a huge hand in it. Aren't Man Utd's next three games Everton, Arsenal and Chelsea? Chelsea have West Ham, Spurs and the Mancs, so Chelsea's run in is easier on paper. Ah well, who nows. I fancy Chelsea to push Man Utd to the last game of the season at least as long as they keep Torres on the bench :D
April 21, 201114 yr League 1 champions oh yeah :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: Brighton are awesome this season :wub: :wub: Bring on August already haha a new season, new league and a new stadium, got my season ticket I can't wait
April 21, 201114 yr There's nowhere else to put this, but SERGIO RAMOS, what an absolute spanner! :lol:

April 22, 201114 yr Arsenal have no chance, but they could have a huge hand in it. Aren't Man Utd's next three games Everton, Arsenal and Chelsea? Chelsea have West Ham, Spurs and the Mancs, so Chelsea's run in is easier on paper. Ah well, who nows. I fancy Chelsea to push Man Utd to the last game of the season at least as long as they keep Torres on the bench :D The most important game for Man Utd is tomorrow's against Everton. If they win that they'll be at least 6 points clear of the two challengers with 4 games remaining. It gives them a buffer because they can then conceivably get only one point from those two games, as if they can't beat Blackburn and Blackpool in their final two games to win it, they don't deserve to win it quite frankly. They're also disadvantaged because their fixture list is Everton (H), Schalke (A), Arsenal (A), Schalke (H), Chelsea (H). In the same period Chelsea have West Ham (H), Spurs (H), Man Urd (A) and Arsenal play Bolton (A), Man Utd (H), Stoke (A). They don't have easy fixtures by any means, but those two extra games United have to play could prove crucial.
April 22, 201114 yr West Ham's Scott Parker wins Football Writers' award West Ham midfielder Scott Parker has been voted 2011 Footballer of the Year by the Football Writers' Association. Parker, 30, topped the poll of journalists ahead of Tottenham winger Gareth Bale, who was last week named the Professional Footballers' Association Player of the Year. Parker's form this season earned him an international recall for England's Euro 2012 qualifier against Wales in March. The former Chelsea and Newcastle player will receive the award on 12 May. Parker's award is even more impressive considering West Ham's lowly position and the poor season they have had - they head into their last five games of the campaign one off the bottom of the table. "Parker has been so consistent this season with his performances in a West Ham team battling for Barclays Premier League survival and as such has forced himself back into the England national set-up," said FWA chairman Steve Bates, chief football writer at The People. "He has been an inspirational figure for the Irons and hopefully his professionalism will be rewarded with West Ham staying up at the end of the season. "In what was one of the tightest votes of recent seasons, Scott is certainly a worthy winner and follows in the footsteps of a long line of superb footballers who have been given this prestigious honour." BBC Sport's chief football writer, Phil McNulty, added: "Parker's selection as the FWA Footballer of the Year only underlines the scale of his contribution to a West Ham team that could still be relegated - and probably would be already if it wasn't for his professionalism and performances. "It's often easy to shine in a good side but Parker has carried a poor team and has been so outstanding that he has finally convinced England coach Fabio Capello of his worth. A worthy winner." As well as Bale, Parker also pipped some high-profile names to the award including Manchester United captain Nemanja Vidic and Manchester City forward Carlos Tevez as well as Blackpool's talismanic midfielder Charlie Adam. ------------------ Fully deserved IMO! :D He's a brilliant player who's invaluable to West Ham and been brilliant all season in a very poor team. It also looks like he's deservedly worked his way into the England XI ahead of Barry.
April 22, 201114 yr Good to see a player in a struggling team win something so congrats to Scott Parker
