Norwich City vs. Manchester United

Worst thing i've ever done was stand on an opposition defenders toes because his marking was annoying the shit out of me. I imagine that's pretty typical for all forwards. It wasn't a stamp or anything.

Could put a player out for a few months with a broken toe though/

Especially if you were a fat cnut!
 
The commentator thinks Nani disrespected the Norwich fans by doing a skill? so the challenge was justified.

I wish the English would feck off with that "Get stuck in, feck skills" mentality.
Aye and then they wonder why they are not able to produce the ilk of players Spain can. This attitude does nothing other than stop players from expressing themselves.
 
I was never sent of in my life. Played a reasonable level of Sunday League football for 12 years till my ankle got broke last year and finished me.

Also, the refs normally understood.

It's one of the grassroots problems with the English game though that attitude. People like you are the reason you don't have players with the technique or skill of the Spanish or Brazilians :nono:
 
Was it Norwich or Ipswich you battered 9-0 in the nineties?
 
and there was me thinking John Terry was the original "big man"

Nah, he robbed that from me.

I must see if the copyright still stands. If you ever played League football as an adult every single team has someone who would go out to let the opposition know they are there. Every team, so don't be thinking I was trying to be well ard!
 
Not really. I was never the most skilful, but when someone started dancing in-front of me at the start of a game, I'd go through them. Nice times out of ten it stopped them trying to embarrass me for the rest of the game.

Christ, if people think this is bad I must be a horror to play with and against. I exaggerate contact when I'm challenged and I'll slyly go through the back of someone or check their run every once in a while.

I'm Irish Btw.

But you are talking shite. If you think thats the reason why we don't have Brazilian like stills from our top level football you are deluded.
 
Someone bump the complacency thread. We are ahead and sitting back.

We would have had a right ould battle!!

What position did you play?

I am and I was, but he got on with it. On the pitches we played on you'd have to run on to their foot or stamp it with the heel to break the toe. All I did was apply a bit of pressure until he noticed.

In the end I took my share of poor tackles so it evens itself out.
 
wow! what a save by DDG!!

wake the feck up lads! we have gone to sleep again
 
Flicked over to the NLD. Didn't realize arse were at home.
We need to regain control here. ddg saves us
