Why aren't there suspensions for this kind of shit? Though I suspect Suarez would be permanently suspended if that were the case. But that was worse than any theatrics Suarez has pulled off yet.I would have gone down too.
They're our rivals for 6th (or higher), they had a chance to weaken us and they took it.
Lol, fair enough!The season in the league is over. Might as well see the funny side of things now.
To be honest, I found the last 10 mins absolutely hilarious. Especially when Enrique took up the gloves. Was actually willing them to shoot so that I could see Enrique make a save. Am past depression and frustration now.
And James Perch is a pussy.
I don't think we're in the position to laugh at anyone.
Unless it's Accrington Stanley.
They won on Saturday.
Did someone post a photo of the incident in another thread and it looked like contact was definitely made or was I imagining that?
There was some contact, but it was more like 'here, why don't you rub your nose against my bald head and feel its smoothness'.Did someone post a photo of the incident in another thread and it looked like contact was definitely made or was I imagining that?
They did. And there was contact between Reina's forehead and Perch's nose. Regardless of the amount of force involved, butting your head into an opponents face is a red card offence so Reina rightly got a red card.
Plenty of pics of the contact if you Google it.
Innit though.90% of pro footballers would have gone down the same, this is the modern footballer.
Diving, pretending to be injured - I am getting fed up with the game to be honest
I thought his tackles in quick succession in the first half on Suarez and then Gerrard were needlessly over the top, and his subsequent walk away looked crass and arrogant. In short, I thought to myself 'who's this fucking cock?'
Then he did that dive.
Reina was a fucking idiot for what he did. But mark my words, that kid will go on to become one of the game's great wankstains. He looks and acts like a cunt.
Did i just see that police are investigating alleged racist twitter abuse at Perch ?
Did i just see that police are investigating alleged racist twitter abuse at Perch ?
A police investigation has begun after another Premier League footballer was allegedly racially abused on Twitter. Officers were contacted when Newcastle United's James Perch was targeted on Sunday after a clash with Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina ended with the Spaniard receiving a red card during his side's 2-0 loss.
A Twitter user, believed to be a 17-year-old Liverpool fan who works at a supermarket, tweeted: "I want to punch perch in his nigger head!" The tweet ended by calling the Newcastle defender a 'cunt'.
Other Twitter users immediately rounded on the abuser, telling him police would be informed, and reminding the writer about what happened to student Liam Stacey, who was jailed for abusing the Bolton player Fabrice Muamba. Stacey, 21, was jailed for 56 days after he admitted inciting racial hatred over remarks about the midfielder, who at the time was critically ill following his collapse during a FA Cup tie against Tottenham Hotspur.
A call about the abuse Perch received was made to Northumbria police but because the complainant was from County Durham, officers from that force will take up the issue. A police spokesman said: "Northumbria police contacted us yesterday afternoon after a member of the public complained about allegedly racist comments posted on Twitter. As the complainant lives in County Durham the matter was referred to Durham Constabulary and an appointment has been made for an officer to visit them and take further details."
Last month a student who abused football pundit Stan Collymore was ordered to carry out 240 hours unpaid work. Joshua Cryer, 21, from Jesmond, Newcastle, had set out to provoke a reaction from the former Liverpool and Aston Villa striker and used a racial insult, Newcastle magistrates heard.
