You've got a good point Arthur. (Never though I'd use that phrase! )
Even if i hadn't been convicted of an offence I suspect my employer may suspend me while an investigation takes place if there was a suggestion that I'd been involved in a hate crime.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
My employer would do the same, suspend me until they found out the outcome.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
Not sure. He's untested in the PL. I'm more in favour of Di Matteo really. I can't see him staying on at Chelsea, I'm sure Roman wants a bigger name with more experience.
Apparently Michael Laudrup is in the frame (although his people have denied it) and that would be interesting but again I'd rather a manager with PL experience who will hit the ground running.

Yes and suspending someone until the results of an investigation are in isn't exactly unheard of, that is why he isn't captain anymore after all, the thought of him by done miracle lifting the.trophy is to much even for the fa to bare, yet it's ok for him to still go.

true, I'm not entirely sure how his time has gone at Ajax, all I keep reading is he's still learning.
I think your going to be disappointed with Roberto. Romans found it hard to buy players to suit a manager, high profile, it would have to be Pep but hes out for atleast a year and anywho he'll be Arsenal manager when he comes back anywho I do think Roman will hand Roberto a contract. Its a good match up, Roman buys and gets his thrill of buying while Roberto brings it altogether.

So why on earth is a footballer treated any differently, already we have people saying that black players should not be going to Poland in fear of trouble, why is it that the FA allowing Terry going as he is facing a racism charge.
Racism is a serious business, and it appears that the FA are doing this 'respect stuff' but in this case they are not, they have basically told Ferdinand that he cannot play for 'football reasons', which between the lines are saying we don't want you there in case it cuases trouble with Terry- so where is the respect campaign now.

Arthur... too many of your posts get slated on this forum, often because of the content, but I have to see this is absolutely spot on! Well said!

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
I'm happy that Ferdinand is not going. I don't care for what reason. but Euro talk has it's own thread.
Cissé pledges future to Newcastle, ends all transfer talk from Madrid and various other clubs.
