Title: Dealing with the boo-boys
Post by: pauld on Sunday, March 21, 2010, 09:08:37
Following the numerous discussions on here about booing players and whether players should just suck it up because they're paid to etc etc, saw this in today's Observer "Said and Done" column:
Quote
Last month: Colombian FA allow midfielder Javier Flórez back into his club's first team, nine months after he shot dead a fan who heckled him. Flórez was freed from three months in jail after paying £45,000 in damages, and revealed he was "hurt" by the episode: "I was drunk and angry when it happened. He really upset me. I just hope people know what I have suffered." But Flórez says he's glad to be back. "It's great. I feel quite calm and there's no public pressure."
:eek:

Was he drunk on the pitch, then pulled out a gun and shot the fan?
I really hope so.

Can we sign him up?

Add a bit more bite into the midfield

Abit like our 05/06 relegation squad really.

"I was drunk and angry when it happened"

I think he'll find the phrase is "tired and emotional"

I reckon Moses could have stabbed up a few boo boys.

I kind of admired the complete lack of recognition at what he'd done:

And people say footballers are self-absorbed!

I'd like to shoot the morons who boo-ed the Austin substitution yesterday.

I wouldn't worry. They won't be back vs Exeter.
