The Football News Thread 2016/17 - everything not Wolves

[Premier Quality]

It's a strange one. Comparing someone's intelligence to an animal isn't racist regardless, but why he chose to use a gorilla as an example is odd.

I'm not sure how he's been racist if he didn't know he was of mixed race.

It's not racist at all, just a desperate over reaction by people looking for something to be outraged about. Stupid article that doesn't deserve to be read, let alone anything else - but the racism bit says more about the people shouting it than the muppet who wrote it in my opinion.

Ross County striker Alex Schalk has been handed a two game suspension for diving in their game against Celtic.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

He is lucky it was only two games! One of the worst dives I have ever seen. Even Rivaldo would have been ashamed.

Agreed. It should be a mandatory three game ban, and it should be enforced by all Football Associations. It is blatant cheating and needs stamping out.

Diego Costa could be off to China. And earning over half a million pounds a week after tax.

The mind boggles.

Ugo Ehiogu dies from a cardiac arrest at just 44

 

[Tredman]

ah, thats shit news.

 

[Lupo]

Dortmund team coach caught up in a bomb explosion.

No idea to what extent as the news is just breaking

German police have arrested a 28 year old man of dual German and Russian citizenship suspected of carrying out the attack for a financial motive.

He had bought a large amount of 'put' options enabling him to sell 15,000 shares at a pre-determined price resulting in a substantial profit if their value fell. A significant drop in price could have been expected had a player been seriously injured or even killed as a result of the attack.

Absolutely unbelievable.

 

[Derby Wolf]

Awful.

 

[machin05]

Really sad news.

 

[Johnny75]

Very sad, good player and far too young to pass away.

Standard mentalness in 2.Liga. Nürnberg are 8th with five games left and they aren't safe yet. Stuttgart top but still might yet miss out altogether.

How have St. Pauli managed to haul themselves out? They were dead and buried last time I checked.

Top of that division is tight. With Braunsweig currently winning its important Union go to Stuttgart tomorrow and win. All teams locked on 57 points with Union in 4th on 54.

Because we're ace, that's why

Seriously we've lost so many points in the last five minutes of games, it's been ridiculous. Not been as bad as the league position suggests. Stupid league too with that many big clubs.

Thought you followed Herta Jase? Or do you just want both Berlin teams to do well?

I look out for both Berlin teams Sam.

So many huge clubs down there. How are Hannover doing? I really should look out for their results more.
