Thierry Henry - Honest Compared To Rooney

[joggerjayne]

That's our problem, isn't it.

One handball and we are all (including me) full of indignation.

But Rooney has cheated against ...

... Chelsea

... ... Arsenal

... ... ... Tottenham

... ... ... ... Vila Real

... ... ... ... ... Slovenia

... ... ... ... ... ... Blackburn

... ... ... ... ... ... ... Aston Villa

If we have the nerve to call the French cheats, they will laugh in our faces.

On French player, at the weekend, said that all this cheating was spoiling the game

(referring to the fact that of 10 Premiership players booked for diving this season, 7 of them have been English players)

It looks like the real cheats are the English ... not the French.

Should we risk taking Rooney The Cheat to South Africa, and becoming a laughing stock?

who cares if we get through to the final so what!!! it will be payback lol

[joggerjayne]

Are you serious ?

And do my cleaner out of a job just before Christmas ?

Have a heart, _NOK_

[joggerjayne]

Trouble is Dot, we will get through, Rooney will have cheated ...

... and then the French will replay all the tapes of everyone demanding that the Ireland game be replayed.

If Rooney takes a dive, we will have to offer the other side a replay.

I've been watching football since 1964 (man and boy) and I have never heard of a replay being granted on appeal of a ref's decision,.are there going to be new FIFA laws for the World Cup 2010 then?

[cazzz1975]

highly doubtful jayne, during that match the french handled the ball on numerous occasions(not just at the critical moment), they are more likely to get pulled up for bad sportsmanship than we are.

[dothawkes31]

personally I can't wait for the finals to start and I wish I could have the 3 weeks off work!!! It's going to be brilliant.

[cazzz1975]

didnt fifa say they were going to consider using a 4th official?

[dothawkes31]

they do use one in the European matches already I think

[joggerjayne]

A game against the French would be a farce.

The French would pat the ball around like it was volleyball.

We would have Rooney, Lampard and Gerrard throwing themselves on the floor at every opportunity.

JJ....why are you JJ again and not Seagull?

[dothawkes31]

as long as we beat them JJ it doesn't matter, if we play them that is.

[joggerjayne]

I will always be the only Seagull, sqad

(apart from whoever has taken the name "seagull" obviously)



Love, Seagull x

Doc - marry me - I am a football widow - both Mr. Den and son are Spurs supporters. Mr. Den works for Spurs and my son also plays footy.

I HATE FOOTBALL.

[joggerjayne]

Yes, please_sir

In Basketball and Netball, you catch the ball and pass it.

In Volleyball, you can't catch it ... you have to sort of "pat" it

(so a handball is more analogous to Volleyball, than to either of the others)
