Skeletor Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 You'd like to think that Wigan will get major decisions going against them from now on. Hopefully stop their usual end of season escape. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a bellend like, always comes out with utter shite as the article alludes to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 "Tackles like that happen every single day, in every single league, at least 60/70 times. At least." Facts. In England alone, with 4 professional divisions there must be 240-280 of such incidents... EVERY SINGLE DAY. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Everything Barnes has said and done since leaving Liverpool has been a total disaster. Don't know why anyone gives him the time of day, especially after backing Suarez with what he went through as an England player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 The bellend is clueless. He probably didn't have a clue what to say, so started doing his 1990 world cup rap. The "they always hit you and hurt you, defending on time" line, didn't go down to well though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddy Chibas Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 On the topic of McManaman's prior form, and whether or not he's a loose cannon (for this sort of s***). The kid he hacked down in the reserves fixture against City. It was reported the foul more or less took place in in the 90th min (after Wigan had fallen behind behind) as the match was winding down. So i'll put this out there if he did in fact take out the youngster in injury time. By the same logic of managers (protecting a lead, trying to control tempo, possession & time on tje clock) introducing a token 90th minute substitution , when chasing a game that late you simply don't go lunging-in & forcing added stoppages. What's the possibility that McManaman (contrary to what you should do in that situation) simply lost his head, and simply thought f***-it i'm take this c*** out. I'm thinking along the line that he's a loose-cannon, with possibly a nasty streak when he does take to the field, and this overrides the ability to demonstrate composure in particular match scenarios, because he certainly didn't show any composure at all, in the most counterproductive way (which should have cost his team a man), on his full debut. I think Martinez has got a live-one, or loose cannon, on his hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly when you think about how the 'challenge' that took Haidara out was in such a nothing part of the pitch and how needless that was.

ohmelads Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Pardew should have taken more of a stance over this and stood up for his club and his player. We've taken this lying down. When you look back at the reds given to Tiote vs the mackems and Colo vs Liverpool, it's incredible Mcmanaman won't miss a single game. Colo was apparently sent off for intent and now there are people trying to justify Mcmanaman's 'tackle'. Makes you wonder if our league is any less corrupt than places like the Serie A. Didn't care before but would like to see Wigan go down. Their conduct over this has been pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I must say, I am getting lots of enjoyment at how bad Wigan are coming out of all this. Serves the shit little club right. Wigan Athletic chairman Dave Whelan defended midfielder McManaman following the tackle by claiming he won the ball as “clean as a whistle”. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest reefatoon Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 What the hell is wrong with that Just because I have empathy . Just find it funny that you have posted 3 times about wanting to cry/in tears/all emotional about it. If you stand back and look at why you are crying. A man kicked another man in the knee and bruised it. Bless your cottons you delicate little flower. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 While the dabate over the FA's lack of action and refereeing incompetence continues, I'm actually surprised there is any debate regarding the tackle itself. He went out to do Haidara, he succeeded in doing him good and proper, and that's about all there is to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
