So. Platini voted for Qatar to please Sarkozy, who wanted to please Qatar, who won the bid
And France won loads of trade deals, and Qatar bought PSG, who Sarkozy supports. Trebles all round!
This, according to Man City supporting David Conn, who seems anxious to play “my despotic Arab state is better than your despotic Arab state” ahead of tonight’s despotic Arab state showdown.

Rum old business, football these days.
You'd never have got Ron Noades or Dennis Hill-Wood
getting involved in this sort of thing.
-
tbh Ron Noades just seemed to be more concerned with racial bouyancy
That whole "black people arent very good swimmers because they sink" thing was very witch trialsy.
-
Very close friend of Ronnie Corbett's, of course, Noades was.
And, of course, we all know what a little c**t he was. :shout:
-
He really is a despicable c**t - Conn that is
not Platini or Sarkozy... well - yes them two
-
When it's that corrupt at the top it doesn't seem to be too wildly absurd to suggest that it is
corrupt all the way through.
I see that Torres and Simeone were not impressed with the ref last night.
-
Torres was quite silly.
A silly tackle for the first yellow, then a silly tackle just before the next silly tackle for which he got the second yellow.
-
I heard Corbett looked up to him
:hehe: you must have been loving all the tributes to him. I remember you hated him - was it that you were his paper boy or something
-
Oh, I know. I think the corruption of football is staring us in the face. It's just that no-one
wants to acknowledge it because everyone wants to pretend the game they love is on the up-and-up.
It's like Wile E. Coyote running off a cliff - as long as he doesn't look down and stare reality in the face, he can keep going.
-
I heard they could have gone down to 9 - although Suarez should have gone as well
Of course I was stuck watching the other game - which actually was pretty good in the second half
-
And Suarez? Was he silly too?
-
-
What's so objectionable about him?
tbh, I find qwuite a lot of his financial stuff pretty decent. He's definitely found his niche there, as opposed to the actual football writing.
Is he some sort of teetotaller?
-
Suarez should have gone for a kick on Juanfran.
Now don't get me wrong, as kicks go it was nothing but it was a kick so off.
He was also involved with Godin in a minor bout of handbags, a much less incident.
-
From the description I heard, he was quite clever with a tackle so late
-
That might well be true, of course.
According to sciencey-type folks.
-
Dense bones, I believe.
Has anyone looked into the sense of rhythm thing, though?
-
Sanctimonious twat banging about the evils of big finance in football
while happy to dance around the Guardian podcast studio when City's evil oil money bought them the league. Also quite a lot of hisArsenal stuff is so ludicrously to prove an erroneous argument that it is laughable that it gets printed
-
Quite so. Still, easier to just shout 'racist!' and demonstrate how right on you are.
-
Maybe so, but it did make him sound a bit bonkers
Though the other Noadesean proclamations probably didnt help
-
Anyway, did Noades actually say that? I just remember him saying that black players didn't like the
-
In science it's generally thought of as good form to test your theory
I'm not suggesting he pop off to Wild Waters in Croydon to test it by shoving a load of kids in the water and seeing which ones came up again, mind.
-
What a bastard
-
And the doping. Don't forget the doping b.
-
I've no idea, I've no interest in the chap, and I switch off as soon as the mob starts shrieking.
-
Though it was the snide kick post-tackle which was the issue.
Cracking winner mind you.
-
Nice to see your journalistic neutrality only extends the proper distance
I simply dont think I could work in football, I'd be too biased against spurs, west ham and the lesser london clubs.
"The ball numbers for todays FA Cup draw are as follows, spurs have a big massive beachball with **** smeared over it, Brentford are 4 and Crewe Alexandra are 6..."
-
What about in football?
-
I have a superb sense of rhythm and am a terrible swimmer. I just sink.
-
Met him at some press thing, agree
clearly bats left-handed, just an observation and of no relevance to anything
-
There are always limits, j
-
I see an Arsenal player was implicated in the Sunday Times scandal.
Quite nice of this Panama lark to deflect attention.
-
In this case, the "mob" allowed us to sign Ian Wright - wd the mob I say
-
When did he say that ?
Although there was and angle about bone porosity that I seem to once recall, although probably all bollix.
-
In football, anything beyond a good, honest 4-4-2 is just witchcraft
-
Oh? Lovely chap, I thought. "Sorry" was filmed at our house.
Mostly the exterior bits.
-
Shortly before Wright and Bright left, I think
-
The man who did more damage to the Arsenal Football Club than Hitler?
-
I don't think he said them fings - just the stuff about black players needed white players to bring
-
What?! Eh?!
You do realise you're basically Hitler's wet nurse here, dont you? You had a chance to stop a great and grevious wrong happening but stood by and did nothing about it.
