Cajun Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 If this has been discussed elsewhere please delete/merge. What a pathetic showing last night from a fantastic manager, acted like a great big kid and even after he had time to calm down refused to shake Pardew's hand and even Pat Rice looked like he had been told not to and was very uneasy looking when he did! Lost a bit of respect for ARSEne, Pardew apologised after which fair play to him for but he really shouldnt have! I would have been very p*ssed off personally and let the media know exactly what I thought but respect to Pardew for trying to do what he thought was the best thing.

Martin Lol Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Totally agree. Pardew had no reason to apologise imho, he simply celebrated his team's goal. Most managers with passion for the game and their team would do the same. Whinger gets a lot of credit for what he's done for the scum, and rightly so, but acts of petulance like yesterday do him no favours whatsoever. I dislike Fergie and he moans about a lot of things, but hasn't moaned about the opposing manager celebrating a goal. Pathetic! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Wenger showed himself up so much there, whats it coming to when a manager cannot celebrate a goal. Pardew did fk all wrong it was just Wenger spitting his dummy. Not to shake the mans hand after the match is a disgrace and he just pile dthem all ont he coach and left did no press at all.

Cajun Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I hope he comes out and tries to defend himself in the next few days or at least the next time he does an interview they question him on it. The whole Rice thing just made me cringe! How old are these people again? Im sure if Wenger could have picked up the ball and gone home with it before FT he would have tried!

Greg Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Arsene Wenger has broken his silence, after the incident at Upton Park on Sunday. Looking emotionally drained Wenger, 79 spoke as Arsenal arrived back in North London "I was disgusted at the treatment we received at West Ham. Our players are used to playing in a quiet, respectful atmosphere in which we can discuss tactics, compare our nice gloves, and scream loudly to let the referee know we've been tackled and need a free kick. The atmosphere at Upton Park was little short of hostile. The opposing fans sang, shouted and cheered in a manner we are not used to. Almost all of them stayed for the whole game, too. This was strange to us; it doesn't happen back at the Emirates Stadium. In addition, our bag man left the team's glove bag back at Gonfraburton Grove, meaning that many of our players were playing with cold hands, and some of them cried. My dispute with Alan Pardew was over his comments following their goal. "Did you see that?" he shouted. This was insulting. He must know that I see NOTHING on the pitch, unless it is a poor decision against Arsenal. I hope the FA realizes what bad feeling this can cause at a game and can have Managers and hopefully players banned from celebrating when scoring goals. I was very disappointed to see him celebrate like that, it was almost as if he wanted us to lose. He did offer to shake my hand at the end but without the gloves my fingers were tres cold, and I didn't want to move them from under my armpits."

Cajun Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 It was **** all. Media frenzy once again. He was still a huge tit head Get your swear filter off you pansy! I didn't think owt to it. Pardew was acting like a prick, as Mourinho was the other night in Barcelona. One gets support, one gets critisised. I wonder why. Pardew celebrated because his team had scored a goal against a top side when he was/is under real pressure, Wenger throws a strop. Pardew tries to apologise, Wenger has none of it. Pardew does the grown up thing, Wenger is still sulking and even his staff are acting a bit childish. Pardew comes out to the media, gives his side of events and even apologises when he shouldnt have to, Wenger refuses to speak to anyone. Wenger = tit in this incident im afraid!
