Hatful Of Hollow 0 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I know where ur coming from thats because English players dont go down on the floor and act like they have been shot by an AK47... ALL foreign players have a TOP qualification in DRAMA they have to pass this before becoming a footballer... it kills me to see refs fallin 4 that kind of shit all of the time 155709[/snapback] Aye, because the likes of Gerrard/Owen/Joe Cole have never dived..

Happy Face 29 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I can't wait to see him cry again when Portugal lose 155854[/snapback] What is it with all this crying? Nonces. Not just Ronaldo who has a weep if his hair falls out of place but people like Beckham & Hargreaves. They reckon Sven was bawling his eyes out in the changing room too. Christ, even "Psycho" was blubbing when he missed a few years back! Get a bit of backbone man! Babies. It would never have happened before Gazza.

Gemmill 46030 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I can't picture Sven crying at all. Ronaldo's tears in the Portugal v Holland game were the best. Sat crying on the bench and it turned out he'd only bruised his leg. Jesus wept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordieboyo 0 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Rooney should be thankful that Ronaldo stuck his beak in. If the reports are true that Rooney was a gonna anyway due to the stamp then Ronaldo has simply stopped Wayne from getting the Beckham treatment. He may be a whinging prick but if ManU sell him (probably at a deflated price now) they will be a weaker team for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I honestly don't think the ref was going to send Rooney off until after the push. He should have gone for the stamp though. The ref probably changed his story after viewing the footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nailed on he was going to succumb to something like that sooner or later tho, the way he was deployed in that system, and getting increasingly frustrated.

That picture shows he seen the incident and he actually was going for his back pocket before Ronaldo spoke to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 (edited) He just seemed to change his attitude from being calm as though he was only giving a free-kick to being rather more excited after the push. You may be right though, but he was blowing before the stamp wasn't he? Edit: For Sima. Edited July 3, 2006 by alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sima Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Erm, watch the footage again, he blows his whistle once for the foul and again when Rooney stamps on Carvalho. Why would he randomly blow his whistle if he wasn't going to take action? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's being disputed what action he was going to take. And we can only speculate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul 0 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 He put his hand up to signal a freekick and at no time before Ronaldo ran over did he look as if he was going to put his hand in his pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 If he got away with it Rooney would undoubtably have gone for something else later on. And he'd have been as little use to us as he had been up to that point. Changed nothing tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 9945 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 (edited) Referee's must truly be blind. Keith Cooper (isn't he the head ref blokey) is saying on Talkshite that, although he personally would have sent Rooney off, he believed the argy ref didn't see the stamp and reacted to the portugese players Obviously as Sima's pic shows, Mr Cooper has excellent eyesight and is a worthy gaffer for the assessors!!!!

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Always disliked the little shit, although I don't think he got Rooney sent off. Biggest cheat in the Premier League, soft as shite. A good manager would have told Gary Neville to kick him up a height in the first minute, he's shite when he's had the shits put up him. Very good player, but spoils himself with his cowardly actions which imo will never make him a world class player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
