Joey Barton on his red card on SSN (after punching Huddlestone):

"I've gone in there to calm the situation down... "

:icon_lol: Nice job Joey! Old habits die hard obviously.

Didn't he grab his little soldier? That's what it sounded like on BBC earlier.

@EurosportCom_EN: BREAKING: Parma has been dissolved (or automatically relegated). Each game scheduled now against them is auto 0-3. http://t.co/oECbnYolvJ

Dafuq?

Hammer.

 

[Tredman]

Not true according to gab marcotti on twitter, mistranslation. They will definitely go into administration at end of the season though.

This is fucking fantastic

Scottish Goal of the Month for Janaury. The SPL included a goal scored by Jay Beatty, a young Celtic supporter with Down's Syndrome. He was given a chance to score at half time at Celtic's game away at Hamilton.

He won the award

Anyone else see Mourinho's Goals on Sunday rant?

I must admit I am getting a little bored with Mourinho and his post match comments.

 

[Kenny]

He has a right to moan after yesterday mind.

He has a right to moan after yesterday mind.

Agreed, but the fact he does every time Chelsea do not win lessens the impact of his comments.

Agreed, but the fact he does every time Chelsea do not win lessens the impact of his comments.

Knows what he is doing though. No one in the media generally question his team, or tactics just what he has said. So he takes all the negative stuff on his chin. It will annoy folk watching it week in week but he does it for a reason. When one of his players gets stuff from the media, like Costa, he will dive in and again get everything deflected onto him.

Yep, pretty much agreed with all of it too. Kights handball was a pen, both of Barnes fouls were nasty where he got the man and not the ball. The other one was a penalty shout where he was pushed (less definate that one though, wasn't much of a shove).

 

[ROVERT47]

I thought he was brilliant, I suppose he is a bit like Marmite though.

 

[Johnny75]

I notice nobody asked him about that cheat Ivanovic grabbing the referee's cards. That should be a straight red, I was smiling when Barnes knee'd him straight in the back, he deserved it and showed what an absolute twat of a player he really is.

What a fantastic story that is.

 

[Kenny]

So, going on how Tweets are being punished....3 game ban for Rio for being funny?

 

[Langers]

I cannot fathom for the life of me why footballers need to put stuff like this on social media. FFS man, just show a little bit of self control - the slightest hint of anything like this and the whole world and his dog (and Jim White) are going to know about it and it'll be the main news story on SSN for the rest of the week.

Why bother? Why take the risk? It's just brainless.
