Arjen Robben

Anyone seen the Arjen Robben v Morgs incident?

Robben fell over....ran off the pitch to confront Morgs....poke him in the face and then push his hand in Morgs' face.

Much more than the so called "punch" against the arse that Morgs got banned for.

Oh well.....one rule for one..........

Just handbags, there was no need for any action to be taken really.

Handbags definatly a robben probably has a few.

What a puff a slight shoulder barge by keef and he falls down like he has been shot.

That's what I'm getting at......they fall down at the slightest touch and we get punished.

Putting your hand in someones face is not on and nothing to do with football.

There was in order to maintain concistancy.

I also thought any raising of the hands, no matter whether it makes contact/hurts the victim was written in the rules to be punished.

As for the Keef incident, the linesman purely reacted to Robben spitting his dummy out when losing the ball. Poor Robben got tackled which clearly isnt fair on such a superstar, rightly so he gave up playing and got the freekick.

I know what you mean.

Im starting to enjoy rugby more you get none of that puffy shite.

Get Robben playing rugby see how long he lasts.

Ooo me arm, me leg, me handbag! lol

Something needs to be done like alot that needs to be done by the FA. Although it wont happen and never will because the FA are feckin useless.
The day the FA deal with these issues in football eg is the ball over the line, cheating players and dodgy refs will be the day pigs fly.

I believe it's worse than ever, some of the refs we have had this season are even worse than what we had to put up with in the Fizzy Pop League and I'm starting to fall out with the "beautiful game".

I agree totally with what Benni McCarthy had to say on goals on Sunday about video refereeing, it works wonders in other sports, why not Football?
