Football Banter

Though i am not a QPR fan, personally i am glad to once again see the back of Neil Warnock. I do not think he is a Premier League manager, he has had several cracks at it and always been sacked as a result of poor performances, he could stand alongside Nicholas Sarkozy as a prince in king's clothing.
Further more he always has something or someone else to blame, this time it was the timing of the takeover previously it was the legitimacy of Tevez being at West Ham that got his team relegated not the performance of the 38 games.

I wonder how Liverpool fans will defend their fellow fan racially abusing that Oldham player.

What a lovely bunch of fans they seem to be

Liverpool Football Club has been forthright and resolute for many years in its stance against racism and any form of discrimination.


The Club has worked actively to combat discrimination and has been at the forefront of social inclusion and community activity in football, winning awards and commendations for its work throughout the world. And this Club is determined to continue its part in working with the game's ruling bodies and the other organisations active in this area.

Whatever the outcome of what is now a police investigation, all of us are deeply sorry for what happened on Friday night and our players and our Club pass on our sincere regrets to Tom Adeyemi for the upset and distress he suffered as a result of the matter at hand.

Our supporters are renowned throughout the world for their outstanding commitment, passion and fairness. They are drawn from nationalities across the globe with widely diverse backgrounds and heritages. The actions of any one individual do not represent our fans. Their stance on these issues is just as resolute as the Club's. We have a very clearly stated public stance on discrimination and intolerance with dedicated staff that work hard daily on programs in this important area.

Regarding the incident that occurred on Friday evening, we have given Merseyside police every possible assistance we can and will continue to provide the necessary support to their investigation in order to ensure this particular incident is dealt with properly. We will continue to take the strongest possible action(s) against unacceptable behaviour during our matches.

This is a nonsense post mate.

It makes me sick the Oldham lad was subjected to that bullshit. It was one stupid, brainless mug. Nobody else. I hope he gets a life ban, although I'd almost guarantee that he's not a regular/season ticket holder. They should ban him for life anyway. Like i said to gazfc a few months ago, there's idiots in every support.

Everyone i've spoken to about it is disgusted. We're one of the fairest, most respectful sets of supporters in the world.

yesterday on the fa cup highlights on itv, gordon strachan said take the club colours/shirt away he is a moron and still be a moron when he leaves the ground.

liverpool v man utd round 4. ding ding in the red corner.....

If we're that bad they why have we battled against the odds/government for 23 year for a small piece of justice for the families of 96 people.

Abuse of all kinds happens at most grounds every game but never gets reported, colour, nationality, religious beliefs, sexuality & players families it all goes on but this time & given what happened with John Terry (Police investigation) along with the recent charge at Liverpool it has been highlighted even more.

I know this is wrong to say but if the Evra/Suarez incident never happened I wonder if he'd have made anything of it, the same as Evra didn't say anything till after the game, given his age & the fact he was playing infront of a Premier League crowd I guess it got to him even more.
Those last 8 words are a bit wrong but I couldn't think of another way of putting it.

Put it away, Trickster!

he he love that chilly, hope you did put it away trickster

If Vincent Kompany has his red card rescinded I for one will be appalled because it will stink of bias towards big teams yet again. Nenad Milijas was sent off against Arsenal for something that was not even a foul in the eyes of most people and yet the panel in their dubious wisdom upheld the dismissal as I understand it because it was not an obvious referee error. If a red card and a resulting 3 game ban for something that was not even a foul is not an obvious error then I don't know what is. It was harsh to give Kompany a red card imo but by the letter of the law if the ref felt it was a 2 footed lunge he maybe felt he had no alternative. This being said if the appeal panel decide the Kompany dismissal was an obvious error then Wolves will have serious cause for grievance imo.
