Genie Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I don't think he's a particularly decent bloke. We have a winner of the biggest understatement of the year competition :-) He's one of the biggest **** pricks I've ever seen. Fact that he was captain of the national team really did put me off cheering them/him on. If I picked up the paper tomorrow to see that he'd had the shit kicked out of him by one of the many people he has screwed over I'd have quite a smile on my face.

maqroll Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Apparently "A small but influential" group of England players have completely stonewalled Terry, although Rio is not one of them. I wonder who they are.... Anyways, it looks like his England career is all but over. Haha, s*ck it, Terry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder who they are.... Anyways, it looks like his England career is all but over. Haha, s*ck it, Terry! Good. His best days are over as evidenced by his poor form this season. Hopefully this means Smalling etc will get chances to show their quality. 2 years ago in the aftermath of the WC exit England were moaning the dearth of good youth in the country yet right now there is a big crop of excellent young players coming through who really deserve more chances at full international level, so time for the so-called "Golden Generation" to at long last step down after doing **** all at major tournaments.

Big_John_10 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I've come to hate the england team over the last few years. Terry is a big reason for that. Stripped of the captaincy twice. What a word removed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp_avfc Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 hopefully the team we start the first group game: Hart Walker Smalling or Jones Cahill or Ferdinand Baines (f*ck A.Hole off) back in england Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Jones hasn't impressed for United this year yet, he will be a good player but he is rusty and prone to errors, not sure how he would deserve a spot. Cahill is another who I feel is not good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legov Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 hopefully the team we start the first group game: Hart Walker Smalling or Jones Cahill or Ferdinand Baines (f*ck A.Hole off) back in england Terry Hart Walker Smalling Dawson A.Cole (Baines gets the jitters every time he plays an international match) Parker Gerrard (in the team purely due to experience) Wilshere/Cleverley/Henderson Rooney/Sturridge Bent/Sturridge/Welbeck Young/Lennon (Chamberlain at a stretch) Don't get why Dawson doesn't get more of a chance at international level, given the dearth of top class centrebacks.

tonyh29 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 So 3 days into a trial that probably shouldn't have even started in the first place but I'm still wondering how the heck can it take 3 days (and counting ) to determine the outcome of this case ? and Can Ashley Cole act any more of a cock if he lives to be 120 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I refuse to answer those questions Tony on account of the fact that I am completely comprromised by my total disgust and hatred of both Terry and Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coda Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 John Terry is a massive word removed. I'd put him ahead of the likes of Barton on the word removed list. What did Ashley Cole say/do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Almost seems to me like he's going down the Suarez route of being hell bent on proving he's not a racist rather than actually answering the charge of using racist language For those that missed it Ferdinand was meant to have been mentioning the Wayne bridge saga, Terry then said yeah yeah knobhead, and yours, you **** black word removed, but he's not racist because he donates money to drogbas charity Ashley Cole said something along the lines of I don't know what was said cos I was too busy thinking about what a great night out he was about to have! clearing in the woods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted July 11, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted July 11, 2012 It's like listening to primary school kids in the playground. If I was the judge I'd fine them both ten years' wages and tell them to grow up and get proper jobs. Pathetic juveniles the lot of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Forgive my ignorance of British law, but why is this a criminal case? It would seem to me that the best option would be to let the FA sort it out... to bring the government into it seems heavy handed and a waste of time.

TrentVilla Posted July 11, 2012 Moderator Share Posted July 11, 2012 Forgive my ignorance of British law, but why is this a criminal case? It would seem to me that the best option would be to let the FA sort it out... to bring the government into it seems heavy handed and a waste of time. Why is it a criminal case? It is being held at a magistrates court not a crown court and its being heard because he is alleged to have broken the law. Despite widely held beliefs and much evidence to the contrary footballers like everyone else are subject to the law of the land. Should the FA be sorting it out? Never will you find a more feckless, gutless weak and inept group. They bottled dealing with the Terry situation just as they always bottle these sort of situations especially when they are an England player. Heavy handed and a waste of time? No not really. A women in this country was recently jailed for making racist remarks on a tube, why should Terry if guilty be let a similar charge simply because he is a footballer? Perhaps the question should be if found guilty why isn't he facing the same sort of punishment as the women on the tube rather than a potential fine of £2'500? The idea of British law is that under it we are all equal, we know it isn't true when it comes to the rich, footballer and politicians but at least this trial gets us somewhere close. Footballers seem to get away with everything, from hitting a DJ because they won't play their favourite tune to well... you name it. If guilty, and it appears to me he is guilty I hope he is punished even if the punishment is watered down so much as to be irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For an American, the idea that the government can punish you for something you say is an alien concept. I am not sure where I stand on the right to have freedom of speech myself.

No point missed at all, he didn't mention anything about freedom of speech, in fact he said he should have been punished by the FA rather than the law shows that.
