Frazzle Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 You must hate the Women's Premier League. I always laugh when I see it on SSN and some teams have played 11 games and other only 3. But I guess they can't play in the rain? Edit- Here we go: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/women/table/default.stm Link to post Share on other sites

Interpolic Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Time wasting and when commentators claim that time wasting is "part of the game" and "you can't blame them for it". It's cheating. I've no issue with players taking the ball to the corner flag as it is within the laws of the game, but taking forever to take a throw-in or free kick is blatant cheating. Also each late substitution is supposed to add another 30 seconds to the time played, but this never ends up being the case. Paul Jewel's teams were the kings of this rubbish.

Yorkie Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Short corners. Invariably, especially at our level, they pass it short and then that guy just crosses it anyway - only he's getting closed down and doesn't get enough accuracy on it. Fucking pointless. Link to post Share on other sites
MKSC Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Defenders 'seeing the ball out'. Yeah, if you are by the goal line then fine, but don't start dancing around the ball 20 yards back stopping your opponent having a fair crack at the ball. It's obstruction and should be punished every time. You couldn't do it any other time but if your 'seeing it out' it's fine. On that note I also hate when referees don't give decisions in/around the box when it would blatantly be a free-kick if it was on the half way line. If it's a foul, it's a foul no matter where it takes place. Link to post Share on other sites

Before the CL final the media were constantly talking up Man U saying Barcelona had no chance and we obviously know what happened... Then afterwards the excuses came out and everyone was saying 'well what if Man U had scored in the first ten minutes they dominated?' as if they'd be saying that if it was the other way around.

Guest Chubby Jason Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Redknapp, Phil Brown, Mark Hughes, Fat Sam, Robbie Keane, Carragher, Fergie, Christiano Ronaldo. Also the way players are allowed to tell referees to "fuck off" and it's just accepted and laughed off. No wonder the standard of refereeing is so low topday. The pool of potential ref's to choose from must be limited, who on earth would want to go into a career when you get a bunch of arseholes with a mental age of 7 (being generous) swearing in your face and telling you you're "shit"? Then you get to watch them do it again on a Satuday night on MotD with your wife and kids. Shameful. Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair, sometimes when I'm playing you can't help but get angry sometimes and just say something you don't necessarily mean but just comes out. I don't say 'fuck off' or 'your shit', just off the top of my head stuff like "are you fucking kidding?" Link to post Share on other sites

Of course theres levels of it that require common sense to judge but the post made before is spot on, albeit a bit venomous. Other sports such as the rugby codes have rules where only the captain can speak to the ref about an issue and it works fine. Lot more respectful. The regular scenes you get of players crowding the referees screaming blue murder is an absolute disgrace imo. You fo get some shit decisions mind... Link to post Share on other sites
