Tiresias Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 To be fair we outlawed slavery and still proceeded to make tons of money from it overseas for many years, we were thinking about coming to aid the confederates too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 He didn't have persistent injuries. Not looking at his history anyway, seemed to play pretty much full seasons in the MLS and then just didn't get a game at Leeds. Edit: he had an ankle injury. Still, seems a bit churlish to try and question his motivations for retirement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Err, probably, yeah Injuries would be irritating to any footballer but I don't think many would throw in the towel at 25 without really giving it crack at getting fit again. Hopefully he changes his mind and someone signs him up in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I just don't get why there's still so much stigma attached to it in football. Not as if football's the sport of a man's man anymore, if it ever was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiresias Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 I think John Fashanu's experience has had some impact, I think it'll take some very high profile player to come out before anything else will be achieved. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Perma-crock Abou Diaby's leg has fallen off again. Out for 9 months. Proper s*** that for Arsenal. He's not their best midfielder, but they look so much worse without him. Diaby-Wilshere-Cazorla is a great midfield three. Two of them spend most of their time on the treatment table though. Probably because he provides drive, balance and physicality. Something that is poorly missing otherwise. Wilshere and Cazorla are great footballers but it seems imbalanced and lacking in a number of things, Diaby provides those things. I wonder if Arsene will finally give up on him and actually look for someone long term who could provide what he provides except not injured all the time. He really has to stop being so loyal to his players. Sure I read somewhere that unsurprisingly they've been linked with Capoue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as if football's the sport of a man's man anymore, if it ever was. I suppose the whole sharing the dressing room and all that will add to the pressure. I don't think it's just football, are really many openly gay men in other team sports? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
