Nasty Chants...AGAIN. But is it that bad?

With what happen at White Hart Lane last Sunday, I do feel slightly sorry for Arsenal fans, and I’m not talking about losing 2-1 to their rivals Spurs. What I am talking about is the chanting directed to Adebayor. Now for some reason a chant as naughty as it was is being talked about as if it’s the sin of the century. This chant or chants going on at this game has been going on for years, remember the Tottenham fans were at it too. They even came up with the first Adebayor song! and the Wenger one was if I’m right was started by Manchester United fans. If you don't know the chants I’m sure you can find it on Youtube if you have that time on your hands. Anyway the question is, Is it right that these chants happen? Should fans been thrown out? Is it as bad as racism or is it just banter at the football?


I don’t think it could ever be stopped, and banning fans won’t help. There’s always someone else who will die for a ticket and that fan could just as well sing these songs. Of course it’s just a minority of fans doing it and I’m pretty sure that same fan who sings derogatory songs to Adebayor , Redknapp, Rooney, Giggs, Cole, Terry etc etc I’m sure if they saw them in the street they would probably ask for an autograph and a picture and post it on their Facebook.

Is it time for women officials in top flight football?

Can they run they line? Can the referee a top flight game? Are they any better or worse than male referees? Or should they stick with the female version of the game? Richard Keys & Andy Gray have once again brought this issue in to football. Here are a few for’s and against women officials. The Pro’s Women have become part of modern day football. That is a fact. At all levels they plan the game and in some cases they run the show, for example Karen Brady. They now attend more games than they use to. You see them in the crowds, mainly in the home end sitting down not signing but they’re still there. There’s no reason to say they don’t know the rules of the game, especially the offside rule as its now become very, very vague to what it actually is! As long as their adequate and have the ability to do the job properly and fairly surely that’s all that matters. Could this be the key that brings a bit more respect in to the game of football? The Con’s Can the female officials take the a

English sides in Champions League..

A look at the English sides in Champions League action this week. Real Madrid v Liverpool  Out of form Liverpool head to Madrid which was always going to be the toughest game of the group. They were given a footballing master class at Anfield by the current European Champions as they won 3-0. Madrid are on a 11 game winning streak in all competitions and I only see that continuing. Liverpool are struggling, Mario Balotelli hasn't lived up to the hype, while Gerrard is struggling this season and it looks like he will be rested, or in other words 'dropped'. There is a clear over reliance on Raheem Sterling, if you keep him quite you keep Liverpool quite. They still can't defend, which cost them their first ever Premier League title. I see Real Madrid winning this 4-0 with Ronaldo scoring the first. Arsenal v Anderlecht  Arsenal could practically seal their place in the knock-out stages of the Champions League with a win here. The Gooners snatched victory against Anderlech

Where has as it all gone wrong for Chelsea?

After Chelsea’s defeat in Germany to Bayer Leverkusen manager Andre Villas-Boas is a man under serious pressure no matter what he thinks. As Chelsea sank to their third defeat from their last five games I look into where has it gone wrong? Well Chelsea was on a run of six unbeaten going in to their game at Loftus Road towards the end of October. A game where Chelsea thought they would walk all over their London rivals. This didn’t happen that day in West London Chelsea lost the game and lost the plot. The repercussions of that match have still left an effect. QPR won 1-0, but the game will also be remembered for John Terry’s racist slur, Chelsea’s ill-disciplined team (7 yellows and 2 reds). Plus AVB was fined £12,000 after the game for comments made about the referee. Since that match Chelsea have only beaten Blackburn Rovers & Everton on penalties. Their defence looks weak, Terry is getting exposed and David Luiz is not the best partner. Centre of midfield is a problem, Lampard
