Guest Heneage Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 He left for first team football on a worse contract. Don't have a problem with him tbh. Celebration when he scored up here was a bit off mind. I'd take him back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celebration when he scored up here was a bit off mind. I'd take him back. As a defender he's a proper unit, but I sort of get the impression he's a dressing room flare up waiting to happen.

Cajun Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 He would be a good option at centre back and would add something different. Might even be a decent back up to Tiote (he has played dm before hasn't he?). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Queen's Celtic's South Korean midfielder Ki Sung-yeung claims he was trying to highlight alleged racism in Scottish football after impersonating a monkey in his goal Asian Cup semi-final goal celebration against Japan. "The people who made noises like the sound of the monkeys in Scotland when he played away games, that is something he wanted to highlight," hollered a Korea FA spokesman. total bullshit according to my mrs. - as soon as she saw the highlight of the goal she said "ha ha he did the monkey thing" which she explained was what koreans do to japanese for some reason (not racism according to her, ahem) fuck all to do with scotland, no doubt oldtype will correct if that's wrong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shaun Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Abdoulaye Faye having a moan at Stoke for showing no loyalty. Says he gave up a bigger contract and bigger club to join them, and they've cast him aside with no explanation. Wasn't he their captain? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Does the fielding a weakened team rule not apply to the Carling Cup? Just seen Blackpool fined for fielding a weakened team, like Wolves before, and seems insane considering clubs do this in the cups all the time.

Guest Roger Kint Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Carling Cup is a FA comp, Premier League rules are different iirc. Either way they cant have this 25 man squad rule and fine anyone for using it imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 What's the point of the 25 man squad rule if the F.A are going to dish out punishments for using all of your squad members? Of all the ridiculous, jobsworth shite peddled by the F.A, this must be the worst. It's sheer fucking lunacy!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I think it's wrong but I can sort of see the justification for doing so. If a team finished ahead of us because of a victory they were handed to them on a plate by playing a reserve side while when we had played that specific team they played a full strength. It breaks up the competitive continuity in the league, every game should be a clash of the strongest possible sides to make sure the table is the fairest possible representation come the end of the season. That said, I don't really agree with it, fining Blackpool for a game they very nearly won is harsh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stephen927 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 No point in a 25 man squad if you can't swap and change as you see fit then. Though Holloway was very stupid to announce he planned to play a weakened time, just attracted a lot of attention onto the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 The fines for fielding weakened teams is ridiculous. The manager should be allowed to pick any team he wants. Its not as if he did it on the last day of the season as a favour to another manager he was friends with. He did it as part of his management of his own team, to manage other games more efficiently. It is madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
