I agree about the faking of injuries, but Rafael did kick him. It really didn't matter if he was injured or not. This was done 2 feet in front of the official. I don't think it is harsh to hand out suspensions for diving using replay. I think they should do it.
some guy from the staff of the england's national team was in the stadium during west ham-newcastle to monitor carroll and matt jarvis (a white winger i had never heard of) reportedly both carroll and this guy are expected to be called in the national team http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/4911518/Andy-Carroll-set-for-England-recall.html
Good. It seems like you have to be black to play winger for England. I hope McManamen, who players for Wigan and a winger, gets a chance to go to a bigger club when Wigan is relegated. He was the man of the match in the FA Cup and he is only 22. He's white, so he has been overlooked by the bigger clubs probably.
The British media are convinced that Rooney is leaving United. The below article mentions Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, PSG, Barcelona, and the most interesting prospect, Real Madrid: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...ne-rooney-be-playing-next-season-8614235.html
lampard has scored 2 goals in chelsea's 2-1 victory against aston villa, he allowed them to qualify for champions league he also became chelsea's top scorer ever: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/may/11/frank-lampard-chelsea-aston-villa rooney must stay at manchester united now that ferguson has left the club, maybe he'll be allowed to play in the best conditions now

only in france i have seen worse and with all that spontaneity, athlecism and diversity on the team, they are relegated and dead last :heh: arsenal finally made it, despite another important goal by the best player of the season, gareth bale, arsenal will play champions league next year the battle for champions league was very interesting between arsenal, chelsea and tottenham the 2 whitest teams out of the 3 will play champions league, but tottenham was a thougher rival than i thought, because of bale and a change in defense at some point this season: kaboul and the black clown gallas stopped playing and the defense became dawson-verthongen, 2 very good white defenders: http://ninetyminutesonline.com/2013/03/04/tottenham-must-be-glad-they-kept-hold-of-michael-dawson/ fernando torres also allowed chelsea to qualify for champions league with a very important goal, after his goal in the europa league final demba ba has done less than torres for chelsea since his transfert in january gareth bale's goal:
According to Rebajlo's breakdowns Sunderland usually had 3 or 4 Englishmen but a mostly white team. In an article in the Guardian about Sunderland's problems I came across this line: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2013/may/20/sunderland-paolo-di-canio No stereotyping there! Perhaps they are hinting that Di Canio needs to replace them with non-beer drinking Africans and Brazilians.
eden hazard's first season for chelsea was pretty good: [video=youtube_share;5g1hs-Cxjno]http://youtu.be/5g1hs-Cxjno[/video]
When English/Scottish teams dominated European football from the mid 70's to mid 80's they featured players from England,Scotland and Ireland and they were all for the most part 'drinkers'.There were very few players from continental Europe,South America,Africa in them days yet these teams dominated.I f anything drinking improved team morale so i dont know where this frowning for any drinking culture comes from. The 1984 Liverpool team that won the European cup and were Europes top team for near a decade at that point. GK Bruce Grobbelaar [Zimbabwe] RB Phil Neal [England] LB Alan Kennedy [England] CB Mark Lawrenson [Ireland] LM Ronnie Whelen [Ireland] CB Alan Hansen [Scotland] SS Kenny Daglish [Scotland] RM Sammy Lee [England] CF Ian Rush [Wales] CM Craig Johnstone [England] CM Graem Souness [Scotland] All these guys were 'drinkers' yet they were excellent players who had an indomitable will to win and cared whether they won or lost.Many of the African and South Americann players dont.Its common to see Newcastles African players walk off smiling and joking with their African pals when they've just lost.
Somebody left this post at Sailer's site: http://espnfc.com/blog/_/name/kickingandscreaming/id/467?cc=5901 Shouldn't this say something to the EPL managers and others involved in new signings and transfers?
Even with all the Africans and mulattoes from Brazil there aren't any on the list. The BPL has quite a few blacks too.
but this is pretty rare, usually they will always put 1 black player on the team even if he doesn't deserve it credit to the journalist who wrote that
