Well said Ged...

[Uncle Travelling Matt]

From .tv:

 

Houllier is furious with Bruce's comments and insists Pongolle is definitely not a diver.

 

"What's being said about Florent is very unjustified," said the Reds' boss. "Florent spent so much time on his back because he was fouled so much.

 

"There were some bad tackles on him, but I didn't say anything at the time. I'm absolutely infuriated by the lack of grace. I like Steve Bruce, but on this occasion he should have avoided comment.

 

"First of all, it was a penalty. The defender was right on top of Florent and he couldn't move.

 

"Second, I think Steve has a short memory. Last season we were denied two blatant penalties away at Birmingham. I can send Steve a video of the match if he wants.

 

"What really angers me is that many managers want to comment so much about my players all the time.

 

"I haven't commented on the antics of Robbie Savage or the tackle by Damien Johnson, have I?"

 

Yesterday's match was the fifth in succession in which Pongolle has been involved in a penalty incident and Houllier is delighted that his youngster's pace and trickery in the box is causing opposing defences so many problems.

 

"There have been five so-called 'controversial' penalty incidents," said Houllier.

 

"Look at them again. Was it a penalty against Fulham? Yes. Manchester United? Yes. Blackburn? Yes. Middlesbrough? Yes. Birmingham? Yes. Why? Because the boy is so quick the defenders can't catch him.

 

"Don't worry. Florent won't get an unfair reputation. I can remember people used to say the same things about Michael when he was first starting in the game. They don't now."

I'm quick to criticise him when he spouts shite but well in Gerard. It needed saying.

Niggly little whinging fuckers.

'We woz robbed Episode II'

 

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away,

 

After the evil Liverpool Empire removed 'stolen goods' from Cardiff from the Birmingham Rebels (or Thugs) in 2001 a further heinous crime was acted out in Anfield in the year 2003. When Jabba the Manc was deprived of penalty and thus deprived of a magic point.

What abour Kewell's goal? What about Emily's?

It was three one knob head, not one one.

Now fuck off and take those in bred mutants with you.

[Anubis]

Lets not mention the Hamman goal which wasn't given. We wouldn't want to upset him any more. :lol:

[Mav]

Yeah bloody officials. Haven't a clue have they.

Well said GH - nice to see the players being defended. Well done.

[Mav]

John, that's two positive posts in one day.

You ok lad?

John's been abducted by Aliens and a sinister evil John replicant has been left in his place.

They never cease to amaze, these mancs. Didi's goal? Even a blind Russian linesman could have given that one. VanCheating Twat spoting off that Cole wasn't fouled- f#ckin Keano clattered him. That is calling the gander in the kettle cooked. 3-1 flattered the Brummies.

Bloody alien abductions, they're like buses. No sign of them for ages then two come along at once. John B and Emily!!

[johnb]

Credit where it's due, criticism where it's due.

 

Just to clarify, I still haven't budged an inch from the "not the man to win us the Title" stance. :thumbup:

What someone swapped E**** H***** with someone who actually gives half a toss?

Emily's kick was so high up in the air that you could hear his arsecrack cracking a further 6 inches.:eek:
