Hahahahaha.

 

World Cup Winners 2006.

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Sh*t, call an ambulance my f*cking sides have split.

I just read an article from this afternoon saying "England can be better than Brazil". LOL

[Strontium]

Oh yes, didn't we all laugh when Germany got tonked 5-1 by England in the last World Cup qualifiers.

 

But which one of those two teams made it all the way to the fucking final?

 

Also, can anyone tell me what the difference is between Northern Ireland "fans" booing Wayne Rooney because of his Irish Catholic background, and Spanish "fans" booing black players because of their African background? Double standards or what?

:tease: A load of absolute SHITE :tease:

 

I was at the game and Rooney was indeed booed........so was Beckham, Lampard, Cole....... little Northern Ireland were getting behind their team and barracking the opposition.

 

Your quote suggests to me that it is you with the problem O_o

Sorry, yes, the Northern Ireland fans have no history of anti-Catholic bias. Just ask Neil Lennon :D

 

Rooney was the only player who was booed every time he touched the ball; I can't think of anyone else who was booed at all, in the first half at least. I find it hard to believe that I'm suffering from selective hearing, or that the pitchside microphones were suffering from some mechanical fault which only picked up the jeers against one player.

 

I didn't realise why Rooney was getting booed at first, and only him, and then I figured it out, and then you could understand why he totally lost control at the end of the first half.

I was at the game and witnessed the whole thing first hand. Your view of the booing of Rooney is totally wrong. I'm watching the rerun on BBCNI now and Beckham is booed every time he goes near the ball!

 

Yes there was a problem with a section of the crowd and Neil Lennon some years ago. There were also bombs going off & people getting murdered. People in NI have moved on (admittedly there is still the odd nutcase still on the go - thanks to the government letting them all out of jail). The crowds back in the Lennon years for NI games were about 5,000. Recently they're up to almost capacity (14,000). The atmosphere tonight was superb.

 

Move on with the rest of us!

I havent seen the match, so i have no idea...but could`nt it be that they know Rooney have an extremely short fuse, and with his reputation they knew he my very well lose his temper??...I think Rooney is bound to be subject of provocation, because he is known to lose it....

 

just a thought.

[Big Ig]

Anyone who boos Rooney's alright by me, except those unionist cunts who I'd have incinerated by a fusion bomb given half the chance. I'm atheist as they come, and catholics can fuck off too (any religious twunts for that matter), but fuck me, unionists and their orangemen bollockarse marches, grrrrr!!!

[liver bird]

just booing rooney for the same reason I would boo him becos he is a loathsome stupid prick and gets wound up easy ,everyone knows he has a potentially short fuse ,would be nothing better than him getting sent off.

Or you could talk about the reception that Peter Lovenkrands and Barry Ferguson received playing for their respective countries at Lansdowne Road.

 

Must have been your television because it sounded to me that Rooney didn't get any worse reception than Beckham, Lampard or Gerrard apart from when he started rising to it.

Exactly Kurt.

[Strontium]

Ah, okay then. Not sectarian hatred, but simple jealousy of a kid who has more talent in the verrucas on his feet than the entire Northern Ireland team can muster between them ;)

[Rashid]

Say what you like about him but talent wide Rooney can be nearly as good as Kenny one day. I fucking rate this lad, and wish we could have had him.

[terry mac]

Rooney is a world class player

[Rashid]

It is lucky Robinho is alive and well or United may of one day had the best player in the world!

[Uncle Travelling Matt]

Booing a player for whatever reason is fair game, the fans have every right. Don't confuse it with racial abuse, monkey chants are NOT the same as boo's!

Depends what you are booing for fella. E.g. What if we only booed black players and not the rest?

[Tom R]

How could anyone bring themselves to cheer on Wayne Rooney???

 

Weirdos.

Racism is wrong no matter what, but come on, Racist chanting is much worse than booing a player because he is black which is in turn worse than just simply not liking people because they are black but not expressing it, its all racism, its all wrong but it exists and lets take one step at a time. You would never be able to prove a reason why supporters boo anyone!

Racism don't bother me at all, it don't effect me so long as the person giving it can take it back when the chips are down. However what you are saying there is damn silly. Booing a player cos he is black is disgraceful.

But who won last night?

 

"Fat" lot of good all talent did ;)

[Big Noel]

Let's stop bickering and just enjoy the fact that England got humiliated

Where did I condone it? Once again, you read what you wanna read Rash. I said it was racism and wrong but how can you prove any booing is racially motivated? Monkey chants you can. I am CoE, if I boo Wayne Rooney at the a game is it because he is a Catholic or I think he is a pr*ck? How do you know either way?
