None of those were even really disputable, none of them - except one in the 1st half (against Abidal) was a penalty IMHO. The rest of the decisions in regards to the other appeals were spot on.
Messi Effect please!![]()
[OT7] We're only making plans for Lionel
Is it Lionel as in Lionel Richie, or Lee-a-nell?
OT7| Serie A sucks, A-League was great today
Or whatever it was that was the caption. Works better if the next title is Calcio Thread.
[OT7] Caps-Lock or Shift, motherfucker

|OT7| Barry subbed and 3 goals conceded
People are dicks. Everywhere today I see articles about how Barry should be dropped from England. Did they not see the match at all?! England went to shit when he LEFT the pitch. Sure they scored two but they STILL lost.
So what happened to Kermit this time? I haven't been in here as much recently and hadn't even noticed he's gone.
It's already ruined![]()
i bet Messi already bought a copy![]()
What did he do?==got permabanned.
What did he do?
Makes sense.wasn't in this thread. He was just being his friendly self in another one. One time too many.
Barry is really shite. How can he possibly be one of the first names on City's team sheet?
/thisthread.
Doesn't work, Walcott is one of the first names on Arsenal's.

They have done well despite. Same for City.

Ugh I remember this, but what club was it? Arsenal?
IMO Gareth Barry is a very reliable, average player.

ID: How did that work? Did we pay money to Hoffenheim?
DS: Ill tell you exactly what happened. We wanted to loan him, but Hoffenheim said they wouldnt loan him as they could get 6 million euros for him from Stoke. He then failed the medical at Stoke. I went back and asked to loan him again. Again they said no, but they would sell him to us. So we paid 500,000 euros down, which was almost like a loan fee, and then wed pay 5 and a half million euros starting the next season depending on how many games he played one level of payment in the Championship, one level of payment on the Premier League. Ill have to make the figures up because I cant remember, but something like 25,000 euros a game in the Premier League and 10,000 euros in the Championship. Demba Ba signed a three and a half year contract with us. We had a deal where his salary would be halved if we were relegated. He said, Well on that basis, I have got to be allowed to walk if we get relegated. What we should have said in retrospect but none of us thought he would score so many goals is that wed be happy to give him £40 grand a week in the Championship. In the end I offered him £45 grand a week to stay but he wouldnt take it. What we should have said was that if we dont halve your salary, you havent got a get-out. The failure to put that one line in the contract cost us very, very dearly. As I say, he was on £35 grand a week and I offered him £45 grand a week to stay, but he went to Newcastle.
ID: So do Newcastle now have to pay to Hoffenheim the money you would have had to pay?
DS: No. Thats why Newcastle could always outbid us. It was our deal with Hoffenheim.
ID: So Hoffenheim got stuffed, then.
DS: Yup, they got half a million for him. This didnt work for anyone except Demba Ba and Newcastle.
Taylor has played 69 league games according to wiki.If Barry was that shit, Mancini would have replaced him or he wouldn't play him. If he didn't like him, he'd be out the door by now just like the others before him.
Barry does a job for City. That is evident. Also I bet he brings a bit to the team off the field too. Stuart Taylor ALWAYS travels with the City team, home and away. He never makes the bench, but Mancini has him there for his character and the experience he has.
Sometimes, this is what you need.
You don't rave about him much, because he just does the job well. No fancy tricks or flicks, just what is required of him.
And boy do you need those, cant win a title without them i say.

Are the West Ham chairmens stupid? They keep giving out private details about Ba's Newcastle contract (previously release clause) and were warned about doing it again.
