jdckelly Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 there's something I do find rather enjoyable about watching a defense vs attack game like that (ie not one where the attack scores goal after goal after goal) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Clueless commentators Part of a goal kick so it's a foul; ref correct Yep, commentators here were saying it should have counted. Yep I was backing up your comment; can't believe even Terry Gibson didn't know that lol What happened? Neymar nicked ball from keeper while he was in the middle of clearing it out his hands.

Ball in keepers hand: was about to kick it but Neymar kicked the ball as keeper was about to kick it out, so it's a foul as it's still a goal kick technically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Yep. Indirect free kick An indirect free kick is awarded to the opposing team if a goalkeeper, inside his own penalty area, commits any of the following four offences: • controls the ball with his hands for more than six seconds before releasing it from his possession • touches the ball again with his hands after he has released it from his possession and before it has touched another player • touches the ball with his hands after it has been deliberately kicked to him by a team-mate • touches the ball with his hands after he has received it directly from a throw-in taken by a team-mate An indirect free kick is also awarded to the opposing team if, in the opinion of the referee, a player: • plays in a dangerous manner • impedes the progress of an opponent • prevents the goalkeeper from releasing the ball from his hands • commits any other offence, not previously mentioned in Law 12, for which play is stopped to caution or send off a player The indirect free kick is taken from the place where the offence occurred (see Law 13 – Position of free kick).

Flip Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Didn't prevent him from releasing though did he? He prevented him from kicking it after releasing it. Doesn't touch him either. I actually never knew of that rule, always thought it was legal as long as the goalie isn't touched but guess I was wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brummie Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I spoke to a mate today, as he left Villa Park after our 89 minute toil against Blackpool. He started describing how depressing and generally mindbendingly shit it was to watch, how sad he felt, sat there watching it (with a nice trip up from London and then back down again after thrown into the mix), that I honestly thought he was about to start crying. He's a 45 year old solicitor, too, not some overly excitable teenager. On the bright side, for the first time, real, sustained anti-Lambert chanting going on. What will happen is, ultimately (probably after about another three years of this guff), Lambert will get the sack and the national media will weigh in about how we've driven him out, when I genuinely can not think of another manager producing so many piss poor results and getting granted so much patience from the fans. Most clubs, he'd have been hounded out after the first season, but with us he got total support. It took another season of utter shite for him to lose support. Still, those cunts on Sunday Supplement won't be able to even begin to work their tiny brains around that, they'll just pile in and blame the fans.

Your situation sounds like a mirror image of our in regards to the lack of pressure on a complete fraud of a manager. Hopefully you can have a Steve Parish of your own. it is precisely the same thing at work - the football "industry" protects its own. That means managers always "doing a good job", regardless of the actual evidence, or journalists who are so detached from the experience of fans who actually pay loads of their hard earned money to watch matches that they're basically reporting on a totally different event. I saw something the other week, that absolute cuntbubble Richard Keyes tweeting about how Malky Mackay deserves another chance (wherever he is) as he's "a great football man". What on fucking earth is that phrase even supposed to mean? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Should be grateful that you're 12th tbh This is true. Last season, towards the end when we were yet again fighting a relegation battle, Randy Lerner released a statement, on a Sunday, saying he was going to say something about the ownership situation at the end of the season, and he was "really disappointed people aren't focusing on the exceptional result we got yesterday". The result he was referring to? We'd just drawn 0-0 at home to Southampton. That fucking says it all, really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media have to take some serious responsibility with how little knowledge and interest they show in clubs outside of the top 4, or 'lahndan.' Were it not for fans like you, I personally would've not known how bad it was at Villa park. Ditto for the SackPardew campaigners. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
