Again. Drogba. Also Fabregas was vilified for a week or so after he alleged comments directed towards a referee during the Everton game. It's not simply because it's Rooney.

Also it's disingenuous to suggest that this is akin to the cameras picking up a swear word from a player or manager who are going about the game. Rooney wasn't caught when the cameras were on him, he looked to the camera and shouted down it.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011

problem with Rooney is that he is a good player but there is just a lot lacking between the ears.

2 games is light but saying that the word that has been used is basically normal language in schools now anyways.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011

Firstly Drogba was banned for 3 games not 4. Secondly it wasn't because he swore, it was comments made to and about the referee. Fabregas has never been banned for swearing and i don't think any player ever has. Surely if the FA feel the need to ban a player for swearing at a camera they should feel the need to ban a player swearing at a referee or official? I doubt it, unless its Rooney doing the swearing probably.

You would think the FA have more important things to do, like looking at Essiens tackle against stoke (which has barely been mentioned in the papers) or the racist abuse some west ham fans were giving out, obviously not.

The bold part is quite funny considering Rooney is renowned for his abuse of officials during play, for which he's never been punished. Often when he feels hard done by he, as clear as day, swears at officials. Yet you're seriously now saying if Rooney (the goody two shoes that he is, clearly) abused officials he'd be banned. Talk about red tinted glasses.

Yes, so why hasn't he been banned before then? Why has this only been started now, in the run-in to the end of the season?

The FA rule is "A participant shall at all times act in the best interests of the game and shall not act in any manner which is improper or brings the game into disrepute or use any one, or a combination of, violent conduct, serious foul play, threatening, abusive, indecent or insulting words or behaviour." So why hasn't every player who swears during a game been given a two match ban? Theres nothing in the rule to say that it has to be directed at a camera to get a ban.

I'm not defending what he did, he was an idiot, but a two game ban is ridiculous.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011

I think the FA are pathetic, I gave up being a ref, as to me the whole football hierachy is a total joke.

The FA are puppets and won't hit the big boys hard, and fine or suspend players or Managers for swearing at officials, the antics that Terry, Droga or Rooney or any PL player, yet clubs in the lower divisions get hit so hard it a tragedy.

I gave up being an official, due to this problem, and to me if it is good enough for lower league clubs, then its good enough for the big boys.

I think there is a clear difference between a player doing it on the pitch where he happens to be caught (and it's usually not audible as the mics are on the sides) and doing it down the camera where it's obviously and intentionally going to be audible.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011

Rooney is a big headed git, and from what l have heard and read, he ran straight up to the camera and said the abusive language, If that audible, l don't know what is.

And not only that, if l was the camera guy, l would have had him done, for using foul and abusive langauge. He is a little baby with the dummy still stuck in his gob and paid a lot of money for what - l have seen better players than him on a cold Sunday morning playing at Warren Farm.

Not quite true, he was walking along with team mates either side, these two man camera operators actually run onto the pitch and shove the camera in the players faces, they are hoping that like Gerrard earlier in the season and Noble in this game that the player may kiss the lens to give them a good picture, Rooney was speaking directly to the camera men, he was in front of Man Utd supporters so he wasn't having a go at the crowd.

The big headed git bit was spot on though

Cannot argue with that, possibly more thick headed than big headed though.

....assuming the Warren Farm you refer to isn't on the outskirts of Rio De Janeiro then I think you might be exagerating a tad there Arthur

After tonights results I suppose it is to late to arrange for Man Utd to play in all white tomorrow.

Re: Football Season 2010/2011

Gomez was at fault tonight, and he is supposed to be a top goalkeeper, on tonights performance, don't make me laugh. and Crouch should never have been on the pitch.

For the next game we have, to have Cudicini in goal and Pav on, get rid of Crouch.

Nope. Not his fault. Real Madrid were simply much better, especially in the second half. Not much Spurs could have done and they would have lost with 11 men on the pitch in all likelihood.
