Typical FIFA

just back from a big dinner at my nans and can't resist one more point....

Your arguement is seriously flawed.

there's no argument here. just trying to explain why fifa have done what they have, correctly.

still the only point of your argument for materazzi's ban being incorrect is that personal abuse in the game is commonplace.

Were you joking about condeming Materrazis "racism" or are just thick?

More importantly, what did you have for dinner?

[oxford_fan]

i'm stuffed from it, my nan is an ace cook. had cold roast beef, potatos, jacket potato, spring onions, lettuce, bread and butter, boiled eggs. perfect meal for this heat

I have my opinion- which is that of everyone elses except yours- but no pearls of wisdom. Niether do you because you're a bit-part sunday ref in training.

no pearls needed on my part as the verdict has already been given.

reffing has nothing to do with it either, especially as i've never reffed a match. no need to start getting personal and bringing it down to materazzi's level.

;]OF ,have you ever played football at a decent level ? Verbals are part and parcel of the game , if i had got lairy everytime ive been "verbally abused" on a pitch i would owe the FA thousands of pounds in fines . Its a big boys game and ZZ should have either ignored him or taken the piss with a nutmeg .

and you've missed a point made ages ago. and yes i've played football, i'm probably better than you.[/quote]

I would doubt that very much, you are either posting on here,smoking dope or poncing off of the state. Tell me at what level you have played and i might be impressed ? Its time to put up or shut up .

[oxford_fan]

i was joking (but i probably am better than you anyway).

i played for the mighty cumnor fc for 7 years, 11-18.

Just because the scummer doesn't agree with the rest of you, doesn't mean that his opinion is any less valid. I don't agree with what he's said but this is getting as personal as the Materazzi/Zidane incident itself.
