So it's not a goal. It's clearly not a goal kick. Yes, he has the ball in his hands and puts it down, ball is in open play. If he was putting it down for a goal kick the ball was still moving when he kicked it so it should be re taken anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderson Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Swansea City's Ashley Williams says he would be delighted for his manager Brendan Rodgers if he went on to a big Premier League club. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17266168 Not the sort of thing you'd want your captain to be saying in public. Understand what he means, but still. Similar to Nolan's comments about Carroll last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Roger Kint Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hadn't realised until I read the article on the Chronicle website that they'll be no home friendlies next year because of Olympics at SJP. No great loss, only one this season and was well under 15k there. Surprised Ashley doesnt utilise friendlies as a source of cash tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Premier League - Former Prem star stabbed in legs Former Tottenham and Bolton star Gudni Bergsson was rushed to hospital after being stabbed in both legs at his office in Reykjavik. The former Iceland international - who played for Spurs from 1988 to 1994 and Bolton from 1995 to 2003 - became a lawyer after retiring from the professional game, and was rushing to protect a colleague who had also been attacked by a crazed knifeman. Local media reported that a man entered the law office and demanded to speak to somebody about a debt being collected by the firm. An elderly colleague of Bergsson sat down with the man, who promptly pulled out a hunting knife and stabbed him several times. Bergsson jumped in to protect his unnamed colleague, at which point he received two stab wounds before the attacker was subdued. Bergsson was later released from hospital, but his colleague remains in critical condition in intensive care. Icelandic broadcasting corporation RUV reported that the 34-year-old man had gone to the office "with the intention of hurting somebody" after the firm tried unsuccessfully to repossess a motorbike he had bought with a loan. He has been arrested and is in custody but has yet to be charged by Icelandic police. http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/06032012/58/premier-league-former-prem-star-stabbed-legs.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Christ. It's one thing championing their style of play. If that's what floats your stereotypically English 'I'm a hard man, me, I don't need no fancy stepovers!' boat, so be it. But to use the cliche of 'he's doing the best he can with his 'limited' resources' pisses me off. And if they could bring in world class players? He won't. Because most world class players actually enjoy playing proper football. That's why they're world class footballers. What a dick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Plus Stoke have spent a truckload for a non-Top 6 team. Limited resources my arse. I think if Stoke had big money like the clubs in the top four and could bring in world class talent, and if Pulis and his players carried on in the way they have been, they would be a big force in Europe. Such a scary thought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
