And you accuse football of lagging behind?!

Well, Tennis and Cricket have had technology for a few years now!!

racism needs to stop in football , being racially abuse on the pitch is bad enough & it affects the players but i think it go too far if people racially abuse online. so far a few of our black players have been send racist comments via twitter or even facebook - police & fa now need to clamp down on it immediately before it get out of control

Bottom of the Premiership, what the owners of Blackburn Rovers do about their inept manager....
Give him a new contract

I actually think fair play to the Blackburn owners. How often do we hear from owners that "the manager has our backing" whenever he's under pressure, then two weeks later he's out the door? The Venky fellas have basically said that all season, yet still people speculate and fans still protest. Now they've put their money where their mouth is and made a clear statement saying Kean ain't going anywhere so you might as well get behind him and support the team

(I'll happily eat my words if he's out the door in two weeks )

Or you could just enjoy some Venkys chicken.

R.I.P gary speed - just a sad loss yesterday mornin, was so shocked when i heard the news yesterday when my mum told me -very sad indeed - my thought are with his wife & 2 children at this very sad time

gary speed 1969-2011 - great player, great manager

steve bruce and sunderland have parted ways. more likely he got sacked and saying it was byh mutual consent (big pay off). at the sametime steve kean is still blackburn manager. i suspect that if blackburn lose to swansea at the weekend then he will be sacked after a 2nd defeat in mighty wales.

I always thought he was a bit of a tosser since he started hopping from one job to another. Can hardly blame Sunderland getting shot of him either as he has had more cash then most managers and done shit. He was a cracking player mind and no doubt he will be back in a job before long...

Yes, we at Palace know all too well about Bruce's inability to stay in one place for very long which was highlighted just a couple of days ago in the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/...ier-league
Though as it's ten years since he left us, I really can't be bothered to hate him any more. Anyway, there's a big game for us tonight so my mind is focused on that. Come on Palace

Not really a shock it had been coming either Mark Huges or Martin O Neil for the job
