Jimmy Bullard is the latest footballer to be caught up in the super injunction chaos around at the moment.

Apparently the bird he shagged doesn't want to be named.

 

;D

 

What have Fernando Torres and Imogen Thomas got in common? Both used to be fucking good footballers!

The FA have already paid up the £500,000 in cash that was part of a £1m compensation

package to the Football League for double booking Wembley for the Champions League

final on the contracted play-off weekend.

That is lucky, as the FL could have been looking for further monies with League Two final between Torquay and Stevenage at Old Trafford not expected to attract a crowd of

much more than 10,000, compared to the 30,000 expected at Wembley.

'Teeth Girl' is well known amongst NUFC staff... even as 'Teeth Girl'. Plagued the team for years, apparently she's the former groundsmen's daughter! Couldn't stop laughing.

Sigurd Rushfeldt today became the all time top scorer in Norwegian football, scoring his 166, 167 and 168 goal. He scored his first goal 29 May 1992, and on the same date, 19 years later, he became the all time topscorer. What a man!  :clap:

And the s*** hits the fan at FIFA.

 

It probably does deserve a thread.

 

 

 

 

A Response from Jack Warner

 

The following is a statement made today by Jack Warner to the media following the news of his suspension by FIFA from all international and national football-related activities.

 

Re: Today's FIFA decision

 

 

 

I attended the FIFA enquiry today at 12 noon pursuant to a request made of me by FIFA to answer allegation made by Chuck Blazer, General Secretary of CONCACAF.

 

 

 

I have learned this evening via the media that I have been provisionally suspended by the FIFA Ethics Committee.  This has come both as a shock and surprise to me.  At the conclusion of the enquiry I specifically requested that I be notified of any decision as I had learned via the media before attending the hearing that a decision would be handed down at 5:00PM.  Despite leaving my contact details, up to this point, I still have not received any notification from the FIFA.

 

 

 

At the hearing I indicated that I submitted two written statements outlining my position.  I expressed my disappointment with the way in which the enquiry was conducted as I was given less than twenty four hours to submit a statement for consideration by the committee and, moreover, one of the five members of the Committee is from Uruguay and did not have the value of a translated version of my or Mr bin Hammam's submission.  This lack of translation services brings into question the issue of due process.

 

 

 

In addition, FIFA did not have the courtesy to provide me with copies of the allegations before the hearing and it was only during the hearing were the allegations read to me.

 

 

 

At the hearing, among other things, I was asked about the special meeting with the CFU to hear Mr Bin Hammam and whether such a meeting was normal I indicated that President Blatter earlier this year had held a similar meeting in South Africa with thirty seven countries and no objections had been made of that to date.  In fact this has been the practice of FIFA in holding meetings with member countries before elections.

 

 

 

I denied the allegations that I made statements at the CFU meeting about gifts being given by Mr Bin Hammam.  I also indicated that at the Miami CONCACAF Congress on May 3rd Mr. Blatter made a gift of one million USD to CONCACAF to spend as it deems fit. This annoyed President Michel Platini who was present and he approached Secretary General Jerome Valcke complaining that Mr Blatter had no permission from the Finance Committee to make this gift to which Jerome replied that he will find the money for Mr Blatter.

 

 

 

I also indicated at the CFU meeting held in Trinidad on May 10 which was requested by Mr. Bin Hammam, FIFA through Mr. Blatter organised gifts of laptops and projectors to all members of the Caribbean and no objections have been made today of this to date.

 

 

 

In my statement I attached letters from thirteen Federations whose members attended the CFU Meeting where the allegations of gifts were made.

 

 

 

These statements from the 13 members denied the allegations that have been made against me and any participation of these individuals in the act complained of. While with regard to the allegation of payment only one statement was submitted by Collins & Collins.

 

 

 

On May 18 when I realised that the political battle between Blatter and Bin Hammam was getting out of hand I wrote Secretary General Valcke telling him, among other things, that the outcome of the elections may cause some fracture in the Arab world  which we can ill afford now and that I will like to ask Bin Hammam to withdraw from the race. To which Jerome replied to me and I quote :

 

 

 

"For MBH, I never understood why he was running. If really he thought he had a chance or just being an extreme way to express how much he does not like anymore JSB. Or he thought you can buy FIFA as they bought the WC. I have a bet since day one, he will withdraw but on June 1st after his 10 min speech. By doing so he can say he push Blatter to make new commitments bla bla bla and get out under applause. Before means he is a looser. So...He will get some votes. Less than 60 today after CAF support. It will be the "coup de grace" if you would officially send a message as the CONCACAF President by saying CONCACAF supports unanimously. So I am not giving you an advice but just my feeling about what I think is the situation."

 

 

 

 

 

Despite the plea from SG Valcke, I refused to give any advice about how CONCACAF will be voting.

 

 

 

At no time during this matter was I ever contacted by Mr. Blazer nor did he contact the Executive or the Emergency Committee of the CONCACAF and it is informative for one to look at Mr Blazer's credibility by referring to the report of the NY District Court Judge in the matter between Master Card and Visa in the FIFA matter of 7th December 2006 .

 

 

 

(para 213) Mr. Blazer's testimony was generally without credibility based on his attitude and demeanor on his evasive answers on cross-examination.

 

 

 

(para 214) Thus, for that reason and based on his evasive answers and his attitude and demeanor, Mr. Blazer's testimony as the March 14, 2006 Marketing & TV AG Board meeting is rejected as fabricated.

 

 

 

 

 

The complaints  made in this matter are politically motivated against Mr Bin Hammam and me and are designed, among other things, to cause serious prejudice and damage to both Mr Bin Hammam and myself at one of the most critical times for the FIFA.

 

 

 

It is also shocking that at the close of an inquiry at around 5:47pm when the decision was already delivered new evidence in the form of a fax from the Puerto Rico FF appears making allegations which were treated as part of the evidence in this matter. This further demonstrates in the way the enquiry was conducted and the prejudice against me.

 

 

 

The decision to suspend me is an abuse of the process and achieves no real purpose as stated in the decision and again demonstrates the bias of this enquiry.

 

 

 

I intend to say a lot more on this matter shortly.

 

 

 

In the meantime, I will vigorously defend my reputation as well as the reputation of the rest of the Caribbean members.

 

 

 

Respectfully submitted

 

 

 

Sgd Jack Warner
