Football pet hates

Programs like The Footballers Football Show - dull as dishwater and full of thick, sycophantic pricks spouting opinionated shit about football clubs they know nothing about.

They're like a slightly less cringeworthy TV version of talksport

FA Cup games on ITV. I know its all because Sky have the PL and theres no stand out games but they always pick shite like Stoke/City & Fulham/Man Utd which are overdone to death on TV and are rarely any good. Would rather watch Bolton/Everton, Wigan?Macc etc where theres a chance of seeing a decent game and a potential upset. Nope we have two games featuring half arsed teamsheets instead...... :huff:

 

At least tomorrow thanks to ESPN we see a good game in between the arselicking of Liverpool & no doubt hysterical Chelsea bashing.

Just watching Real Madrid - Getafe, an one of my pet hates has reared its ugly head:

Football myths like 'No doubt Pardew will find a way to play ********' when he has never played that player unless we have had zero realistic options.

 

Same for team selections when our bench is filled with players regularly called shit or not good enough.

Only a week ago he played Shola Ameobi on the right wing when we had Obertan on the bench :lol:

Yes it happens but there have been plenty of times this season where some have moaned but when asked what else we could have done it's been :dontknow: 'I'm not paid to make these decisions, still shouldn't be fucking playing though!' :lol:

Think I've mentioned it before, but when backpasses like the Terry one to Turnbull today aren't punishable by a red-card and penalty rather than just an indirect free-kick. Turnbull wasn't even booked for it ffs.

Very debatable. I accept that Pardew has had his fair share of adversity, but I also think that he's handled it terribly.

There are plenty better options than Shola on the wing :yao:

The surprise and stick directed at PL clubs for getting knocked out of the FA Cup, and then pundits saying stuff like "of course they were playing a weak team, but the 11 out there should have been enough to get the result". As if football works like that.

 

11 hungry, motivated players in the role of underdog, in front of a TV audience with everything to prove, against 11 PL reserves who can't be bothered with the competition and haven't played any decent level football for weeks. It's hardly surprising that better ability isn't enough to stop the PL team getting beat.

 

The fact is the PL clubs don't really care about the FA Cup, and they don't really try that hard to stay in it.
