Re: Football Season 2012/2013
The motive is to destabilise the club. It came out the same day as the North London derby and promised massive transfer budgets, being a massive European club, and cheaper ticket prices. It's Usmanov's same style all the time. Whenever Arsenal are having a bad run he pops up with a press release slating the club and promising more, or he says Henry wants him to take over, or he writes a letter to the press.

No what I mean is that when the season is still progressing and we still have games to win and points to fight for he is attempting to inhibit that to make matters worse and market himself to the fans. This is why he chooses his timing so carefully. He is working against the best interests of the club for personal gain.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
Michael Appleton sacked by Blackburn.
LINKY
Blackburn really are a joke club. Fans of Blackpool will be laughing.
Burnley fans will be delighted after Appleton's out of order comments after last weekend's derby.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
Absolutely shocking and it just shows again that Blackburn are run by a absolute bunch of idiots.

Callum McManaman escapes FA action over Haidara challenge.

Pathetic.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
I don't think Wigan are scummy. Their manager doesn't set out to get his team to 'let them know they're there' and to make borderline tackles to unsettle the opposition. They're usually clean and fair players.

I would have agreed with you before this incident to a degree Damien, but the way the club officials have reacted has been disgraceful.
Here's to their rapid demise.

I think thats a bit harsh. Personally i don't think he meant it, yes it was a definite red card but i don't think he went out to get the Newcastle player, it was accidental.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013
I just don't get it. The message this sends out now is really poor... so far the reaction to it has been negative from not only Newcastle fans but others too.
OK, so Haidara's assailant cannot be charged due to the fact that the officials saw it and chose not to act. Is it not therefore fair to conclude that those officials aren't fit for purpose and should be relieved of their roles?
Lets be honest here though.. it's just getting worse and worse each season, there were many things the ref completely missed yesterday, their goal came from a handball. James Perch was lucky to be on the pitch after a dodgy tackle too. Callum McManaman punched the ball out of play after his challenge. So not only does he get away with the challenge he also gets away with the 3 pointer he tried after it.
Bale being booked for diving every other week, Suarez playing goalkeeper or scoring with his hands. How does this even happen? YOU CANNOT let something happen regardless if the ref did or didn't see it. Whilst the result may stand for a goal that's been bundled in from a deliberate handball, how can anyone sit and justify not banning the player for doing so? How do you escape serious punishment for attempting to gain a freekick/penalty via diving? Cheating is being promoted in this league and others every week because the governing body sit back and do absolutely nothing about it.
Simple solution: and note I'm not picking these players out of spite, I'm picking them as they are the most recent and talked about this year.
Gareth Bale - 3 match ban for simulation.
Suarez - 4 match ban for using his hand to create or score a goal.
Callum McManaman - 3-6 match ban depending on severity for dangerous play.
It's as simple as that, you'll quickly find less divers and basketball players.

Thing is he made no attempt to pull out of the contact, also he just walked off after, leaving the player on the turf.
Having already achieved a similar result from a like tackle before in his life, you'd think he might have learned.
