MacKenzie is a proper horrible cunt of the highest order , he just cant help himself it seems !


I wonder why the Sun would do that; after all, they're just a shameless excuse for a newspaper ?? They might be worried about any potential litigation being directed their way.

Mackenzie is a grotesque caricature of a human being but, sadly, he seems to be typical of many of the journalists we find ourselves afflicted with today.

Calls for the Sun editor to be sacked / suspended aswell MC as the article would have been proofed / edited . All kicking off tonight ......... the Sun and the city of Liverpool have "history" .

Wouldn't it depend whether he knew Barkley's grandad was Nigerian or not? If he didn't know, how would that be racist?

Whatever, it is a despicable character assassination on a young lad who hasn't done a great deal to warrant it. The bloke wants sacking anyway.

Chelsea TV being broadcast by SSN currently, Jimmy Floyd pimping for Terry in between absurd chav propaganda blurts as cued by the appalling shoutywotton in each topic under 'discussion' - it's actually quite amusing.

I notice in the match report on the Sky app, Fellaini was sent off after a coming together of heads with Aguero. Clearly not the headbutt i saw then. My mistake

Rags celebrating a hard fought 0-0 at the Etihad today , it's there biggest result of the season and they only had 10 men as bog brush got sent off for nothing . In the cold light of day this is how far the rags have fallen and this totally untrue pedalled shite from the rag media is somehow acceptable to them . Laugh it all off lads they are SHITE every fan apart from the rags knows they ARE SHITE and a million miles away from being top quality and a threat .

Thereare2 statements that piss me off that are regularly used by managers, the media and the supposed expert pundits, I even regularly see them on here;
1) "He got the ball"
2) "He never touched him"

The laws of the game are quite clear and make no mention of the ball whatsoever. Neither is it necessary to make contact with a player to foul him/her.

The crucial factor in a challenge is INTENT. What was the intent of the player when making the tackle. Whether he got the ball, the ball and player, or the player, not the ball or missed both the player and the ball is irrelevant. If his intention was to foul the player or the challenge was a dangerous one, it is a foul.

Whether the bog brush made contact or not with Aguero is also irrelevant. It was clearly his intention to either head butt Aguero or threaten to head butt Aguero. That is sufficient for the offence to be committed.

I hate saying this, but last night the referee was right. Those expert pundits are fukkin dildos who have spent a lifetime playing the game, without either knowing the laws or lying through their back teeth to the public.

Spot on.

I hate the way that pundits and so called experts spout their bullshit opinions like it is fact. Neville is one of the worst for it, consistently defending unsportsmanlike behaviour as if its good play. Proper C***.
