Chelsea are by the far the worst team for whinging and giving players a whack when the ref isn't looking, Chelsea have been known for years to be hard, you only have to go back to Chopper Harris in the heyday of Chelsea.

John Terry is always complaining and going in hard towards players, and some of his tackles are straight reds, but like Rooney he gets away with it.

He should have walked himself for some of his tackle, along with that player with the flashy hair, behind the legs, elbow jobs.

When they are losing they are terrible, l thought QPR played very well and dserved the win.

Its a great shame the FA don't show the same disipline to PL stars then they do to lower league clubs.

Van Persie spoke out against them last season.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/foo...Barcelona.html

Re: Football Season 2011/12

John Terry is now being investigated by the police over alleged racist comments after a complaint by a member of the public. I think if the player involved (Anton Ferdinand) does not make a complaint there is obviously nothing for the police to get involved in. It is just a 'fan' (I use that term loosely) who does not like John Terry.

ITV is reportedly close to securing a new deal to continue broadcasting the FA Cup and England home games until 2014, but the agreement is expected to be 20% less than its current deal.

Ballon d'or nominees have been leaked. Can't find a full list yet but Rooney is the sole English representative and the list contains a slew of Barcelona players.

Carlos Tevez has been fines 4 weeks wages and has a 2 week suspension which he has already served. Sounds like a cop out by man city.

Chelsea charged after QPR behaviour

The Blues were given until Friday to respond on both counts, after which Villas-Boas could be hit with a charge for accusing the referee of not treating both sides equally and of being "card happy".

It wasn't likely to be much, though i would have liked it to be.

Burden of proof was on the club, and that would have been quite hard.

Suspect now it is...sell him as soon as it is possible, recover some money..move on (and win the league, and champions league)

The latter point in brackets...my addition :D

Arsenal have gone 1-0 down in the Carling cup at home to Bolton

Man Utd are banishing the memory of their 6-1 hammering by leading 3-0 at Aldershot.

Carlos Tevez may sue Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini for defamation of character, according to sources in the Argentine striker's camp.

But Tevez has been advised that Mancini's post-match comments on the matter could amount to defamation.

What a idiot this man is and now he is being ill advised as well.:(

Re: Football Season 2011/12

A Czech football match was abandoned after it was taken charge of by a drunk referee.

According to Lidove Noviny newspaper, the official had arrived merry following his birthday party.

During the game, the referee sent off two players for seemingly no reason, before falling over on a number of occasions.

"His breath smelt like a brewery and he didn't hide the fact that he had been celebrating a birthday," Karel Dusek, an executive from the Jestrabi Lhota club, said.

"There's no rule which bans a drunk referee from taking charge of a match. If we had refused to continue to play, we could have been sanctioned."

The Czech football authority decided to postpone the match. The referee faces a potential 12-month suspension.
