Kenny Dalglish Won't Be Delivering the Module: English Premiership 2011-12

yeah i did a nazi salute gag at the time but i didn't really think he was doing it

Me too. It's quite bizarre he has to apologise/"explain himself" for this

Yeah, i posted about it during the match. Can't help feeling in some way responsible

Wait so that song I heard on Saturday wasn't the Arsenal fans singing "there's only one Nazi rapist"? Disappointing.

So, considering Chelsea were drawing at the time, did the famously reformed gambler and brave English lion John Terry really slip over or is he now fixing matches to help him pay off his mother's £4mn mortgage?

on his money Terry's finances must be firmly in the blind

"It has been brought to my attention of some ridiculous allegations concerning my celebration of one of my goals yesterday," Van Persie said on Twitter late Sunday.

"It is totally ludicrous to suggest that my action of brushing my shoulder and pointing to my fans could be construed as anything else but of a showing of joy and celebration.

"To suggest this meant anything to the contrary is insulting and absolutely absurd as nothing else came into my mind."

disappointed that he bothered to reply to this drivel

if he had claimed it was a john terry ref that would have been great tho

u can tell rvp wants to be liked tho.....always eager in interviews, giving champagne to his teammates, giving away his shirt and bowing to the crowd on saturday

Hitler wanted to be liked too

u can tell rvp wants to be liked tho.....always eager in interviews, giving champagne to his teammates, giving away his brown shirt and bowing to the crowd rally on saturday

Must be a racist, John Terry kisses the ground he walks on.

no way is RvP a blindshirt

"It is totally ludicrous to suggest that my action of brushing my shoulder and pointing to my fans could be construed as anything else but of a showing of joy and celebration.

that's not really denying it though??

Is RVP a muslim? I thought that was why he gave away the champagne? I'm probably wrong tho.

His wife is. Not sure he's religious.

"It's not true. I am not a Muslim, nor a Christian or a Jew. I have been raised liberally. If you want to become a Muslim it should come from the heart. I would not do it just to please my wife. To believe for me is a quest for being a good man."

idg how brushing your shoulder ends up with your arm extended in what looks very much like a nazi salute

oh christ pls dont let's do this

this is now the lead story in the daily mail oy vey

Well if anyone would know about Nazis it would the Daily Mail

Yes, they often brushed dust off their shoulders in the 1930s.

those crazy nazi dutch

Yes, you'd never see Geert Wilders brushing dust off his shoulder

wilders is a troublemaker but he isn't remotely a nazi

Oh he's a nazi alright, he just replaced jews with muslims tbh

who does g.neville's research for his monday night tactics breakdowns?

he's kinda charmless w/an annoying voice but he's actually not bad on tactics

neville is perturbingly otm on occasion

tbf to Geert Wilders, you can be a racist hatemonger without being a Nazi

neville is....good, i think most agree

the jew/muslim substitution isn't capable of being made, the former being far more ethno- than religious from a nazi pov

it's bad rhetoric to call people nazis unless they are nazis

or john terry

tbf to Geert Wilders, you can be a racist hatemonger without being a Nazi

Yeah I know, I was trolling. Racist he most definitely is.

the whole 'let the fa take their time' thing nult is saying is a load of mendacious shite, pretty much an invitation to whitewash

the fa desparately waiting for the news cycle to pass but at least anton ferdinand seems pretty clear now....

You have to wonder what there is to investigate. They have the video, they can talk to the dozen or so people who were within earshot in a matter of days, i'd have thought.

getting them to agree on the story is the hard part tbh

totally xp

I didn't see Neville's analysis, what was he talking about?

caught a touch of him pointing out that rooney's moved up into midfield, unconvincing

wayne rooney is a united legend tho

(Obertan cross, nice backward-leaning header from Ba, Newcastle 1-0)

Shawcross off injured inside 20', possibly after a challenge with supposed ticking time bomb Ba - really enjoying this match.

university challenge is p good tonight tbh

Rooney did play in midfield on the weekend.

Norwich fan? How did I miss this?! You've been among ILF's top transfer targets for a while now.

Heh, yeah, I kind of just lurk on the football threads, and ILE in general. I'm mostly just on ILG. Also, these football threads move too fast for me; miss a weekend and there's hundreds more posts! Have to admit, I didn't even know there was a board for the football, as I don't normally scroll down the boards list that far. Anyway.

I reckon Norwich will be near the top of the bottom half by Christmas, and testing my loyalty by the end of the season, but I'm enjoying it while we're on-track for the 40+ points target for relegation safety. After watching how quickly the big boys can turn a season around (Arsenal this year, Liverpool to a degree last year) when it's this tight, I feel like we're always going to balancing on the edge of a dramatic fall from grace.

Newcastle Stoke game kinda boring so far. Reckon Newcastle will hold the win now though. Demba Ba just won't stop scoring, eh?

pulis rejected ba saying his injury record was a timebomb or something

ffs can we get back to spurs pls

Good to have you on board, Craig. I appreciate that it takes time to get acclimatised but we're looking for you to push on now and post day-in-day-out. And no need to worry about keeping up, obv, mostly it's just a big mancrush on John Terry.

Serious question though: how has Lambert managed to put together a crack outfit basically from park players?

because coaching is easy while they still want it cf ipswich hull etc

I just assumed he (or at least his scouting staff) plays far too much Football Manager, and therefor know all these random cheap dudes from Brighton and Hove, with flagging careers, that somehow are up to scratch.

nah fm coaches have a history of sucking (hey sven).

i am thinking of doing a 'best player to watch in the league rite now' poll of ten players. ba, silva, rvi, aguero, supermario, mata, suarez and....? all about current form, so is modric worth including? cabaye maybe? gervinho? some utd dullard i guess? j beezy?

You forgot Sturridge.
