Disco Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 All the issues surrounding football is spoiling it a bit at the moment. Extremely tedious. I think the racism/equality stuff is a really worthwhile topic but it just happens all of the key characters involved are utter self obsessed bellends of the highest order thus rendering it extremely tedious. Of course the constant reporting of who is or isn't wearing a, what is, meaning t-shirt is utterly fucking boring to the nth degree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 All the issues surrounding football is spoiling it a bit at the moment. Extremely tedious. football's a sport, thats where almost all the focus should be. Instead most of the focus is on external issues at the moment. Fair play they're important but it's fucking annoying. Some club stuff is just petty as fuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Clattenburg all over the back pages tomorrow - basically he's fucked either way. If innocent, I hope he takes Chelsea for every penny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 The cynical part of me is wondering if it isn't some made up thing by Chelsea to get back at him since just moaning about it would achieve nothing for them. Sad that the thought occurred to me and I'm finding it hard to dismiss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemtizz Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Seems just The Guardian are reporting it at the moment.

Si Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Wow, sounds like a right wind up. If he has used racist language then it must have been something pretty special given these players have been desensitized by working with John Terry every day.

Anon Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Aye right. Can't speak for his personal character like, but given that he's a professional ref who knows he's being recorded all match I'll going to take this one with a pinch of salt.

JH Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 He'd have to be pretty stupid to racially abuse a player, in a game he's refereeing, on telly too. Sounds like sour grapes tbh. Either way, his career's probably over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
