genuine, I'd like to know if this was understandable... :-)

no, it wasn't.

Hahaha, Roger: napping is snoozing, fell asleep at the vital time, if you will...dunno why I'm laughing mind, my Italian is shite.

lol,
so what's the correct English to name the foul committed by a defender, who that forward to prevent the attacker from finding a prop?

Dunno, I'd say backing in.

Although I reckon arjan is on the money. Defender was trying to be clever and win a foul instead of a simple clearance. Had he actually gone for the header it probably would have been a straight forward foul.

I think he just shit himself when he seen Barry's awesomeness.

Barry's diving header looked like he just saw a buffet and he wanted a piece

Leapt like a salmon, landed his face in the profiteroles.

Having seen the goal anyone who slagged Mike Dean off today has never played football imo.

I slagged him off mate, because he didn't give us a penalty. I thought we needed a penalty even if we were in our own half!

Take it gillie, that you think it's a foul by Barry too. I'd be raging if we lost a goal like that and the ref didn't give a foul.

[Blue Since 76]

Didnt get to watch this but read a match report. How on earth did we only score at the death after arsenal trounced them last weekend? Frankly, a 1-0 win over Reading is a bit embarrassing.

Yeah, we could have put 4 past them and let in 3 instead.

Do you not think the arsenal result may have had some impact on how they approached a game away at the champions?

Don't blame them at all for the way we played and we need to work out how to play against it, as they won't be the only ones to do that.

No mate coz it clearly was'nt a foul the defender looked like he wanted Barry's cock up his arse he bent over that much.The defender made a back in common parlance and Dean saw it end of discussion.

I never thought it was a foul at the time, still don't think so now.

Good call.

[ayrshireblue]

I guess sometimes you just think something looks wrong and you can't be swayed. Don't get me wrong I'm glad it counted but it just looked too awkward at the time for me to say it was clean from Barry. Maybe watching it again on MOTD will prove me wrong.
Those saying Arsenal pumped Reading on Monday so why couldn't we don't understand that after that embarrassment that Reading were set up not to lose goals.

cheers Gillie, Mate.
I can sleep satisfied now that I learnt how to say it.

not that I don't like my arse to be licked, but that's something I'd already learnt.

I very much doubt You might find some fresh water at that fountain, Mate.

Though, I can understand You may take sometimes to feel comfortable at grabbing a win in Fergie's time.... :-)

So, this anti-football stuff, is it only us who played it once? Never heard it since.

Beefy mate,Reading were shocking today. I've seen more attacking from an Italian tank division. Football should be about trying to win the game not trying hard not to lose.

[Risby]

I'm still lost!
Reading are bottom of the league. They come and play with a back line of 8 at times and the boss is pissed because they didn't get anything from the game. To add insult to injury, you have Hanson and Savage saying they had played so well throughout the game.
Bollocks is all I can say. They deserved to lose and will remain bottom with tactics like that.

[Dingus McDouchey]

Blue Moon Dallas enjoyed Barry's winner! Get in.

Fucking McDermott is such a cunt. Moaning bald cunt. Sounds likes Moyes. Didn't even mention the handball which is the only one the ref got wrong.

Never should they of had a penalty from rekik though, complete bollocks. The fact that he stayed down for about 3 minutes and then had to go off from less than a fucking shoulder barge the complete cunt.

Barry didn't foul shorey he fucking jumped and shorey backed into him hoping for the whistle. If he would of stood the fuck up or gone for the ball he would of cleared it and they would of got a very well deserved point for the hard work they put in defending.

I find it quite astonishing that we are the only team to be labelled wit this tag yet we see it week-in/week-out.

I long to see a game where we can just play football. So amazing how things have changed.

[Goaters 103]

It wasnt a penalty, nor was it a foul by Barry for the goal. Mcdermott, a manager who knows his days are numbered, is seeing what he wants to see.

As for us, god we were poor. The performance was flat, the atmosphere in the ground was flat but somehow we got out of jail. Lets hope we make that 3 points very important by winning at Sunderland now - as we have no margin for error we have to win there.
