Agreed.

Unlucky Ireland. Disgraceful.

Thierry Henry is a cheating cunt!!!!!!!!!!!! he has just controlled with his hand and crossed to gallas to score. Thats one of the most blatant handballs i have ever seen, probably since maradona.

How this guy gets away with accusing others of cheating, when his career is littered with examples such as this, I struggle to comprehend.

I understand It's all part of the game these days, but wheeling away as if you've just volleyed it into the top corner when you have actually controlled the ball twice with your hand is hard to stomach. Particularly from someone who will try to claim the moral high ground when it suits him.

Arsenal now overtake Everton with Injurys, but it does prove Wenger doesn't need to buy.
We have a fantastic squad of players that can change formations and keep that attacking/passing game. without Clichy and RVP the Chelsea game is going to be a tough one but it means we haev to keep it on the floor, our game is quicker then Chelseas and we pass better so we have a chance if our midfielders can get into the box and keep the pressure on..

we got two games where the pressure is off a little before Chelsea.. Traoure or Silvestre can get their eye in to cover left back in time

The Old Kent Road went mental tonight.

what an absolute travesty. As someone with many irish relatives i feel a bit sickened by that handball. what a fucking shitty way to not be able to enjoy the world cup.

Poor old paddys

Robbed by a cheatin French cunt. Another valid argument for video technology. It took about 4secs to repeat and show the replay so all this shite about slowing the game down is bollocks. Thing is though, why was the ref so stubborn in not even consulting his linesman?

Irony is that it was an ex Arsenal legend(nearly all Irish I know support Arsenal) that robbed them of a World Cup place

Such outrage makes me laugh. It was clearly blatant cheating but I can show you cheating from every single game played in the English leagues week in, week out. Timewasting, exaggerating contact, diving, pushing, shirt tugging, the list goes on and on.

It's professional football and, whether you like it or not, cheating is endemic. You can either live with it or lobby the FA, UEFA and FIFA to do something about it.

well at least it takes the heat off ngog !

Why are people shocked about the Thierry Henry incident? The French putting their hands up has been a national pastime since 1940

If Eduardo got banned for deceiving the referee then Henry should get the same punishment - this one won't get reversed on appeal though.

Shame this won't happen though because Platini wouldn't allow his own country to be excluded from the WC under his rule.

Just as well that Platini doesn't run the show at FIFA. Absolute disgrace what happened last night. I reckon a replay at a neutral ground should be played.

Someone please rep Richie for me for that gag (I'm all out of Richie love it seems). Comedy gold!

don't - it wasn't originally mine.

Can you not be repped for great use of a other peoples material?

I have been doing that since about 1995.

All the same, you were the first one to put it up here today

ok then, cover me in your hot rep, bitches

:)

Done.

Done +1

cheap shot against the french.. i don't buy those fucking easy rep points.

FTR - Eduardo didn't get penalised. they turned it over, i should imagine Wenger put together a few video clips of Gerrard and UEFA realised that would ruin relationships with the FA

tactical quote...

i am a goal poacher, pip.

you gotta take the tap-ins when they come to you

apparently i can't rep you for your stolen material.

What they lack in World Cup action, they make up for in wit.
