  • Goat says:

    You should read the comments about the Jonny Evans-Drogba incident. People are overwhelmingly blaming Drogba for throwing his chest into Evans’s studs. As far as I can tell, they’re serious, too. ManU fans (but not the fine fellows who frequent this here blog) are like right wingers who are incapable of acknowledging mountains of evidence that contradict their narrow world view. Blame Wenger, blame Drogba, anyone but themselves. Fucking morons.

  • The Fan's Attic says:

    @Goat: i couldn’t figure out if it was serious or a windup. regardless, they are idiots.

  • WhiteSpeedReceiver says:

    Evans should have bought him dinner first. Christ, that was ugly.

  • Anonsters says:

    All you Liverpudlians, get thee some perspective:

    On crises.

  • Anonsters says:

    And call me a twat, but I actually don’t have a problem with a section of Celtic supporters vocally refusing to honor the British war dead. Go read your Yeats again, or if you need a more modern counterpart:

    “We store our sorrows in our jars, lest/the soldiers see them and celebrate the siege…/We store them for other seasons,/for a memory,/for something that might surprise us on the road./But when life becomes normal/we’ll grieve like others over personal matters/that bigger headlines had kept hidden,/when we didn’t notice the hemorrhage of small wounds in us./Tomorrow when the place heals/we’ll feel its side effects.”

  • Eladio says:

    I’m truly getting worried about Song’s requirement to play in the ACN. Here’s hoping that Cameroon goes out quickly in the tournament. And he doesn’t contract malaria.

  • Magnakai Haaskivi says:

    I have to agree with Barry Glendenning on the Drogba challenge, though: the leg twitching was pretty damn funny.

  • Goat says:

    @MH: Agreed. It looked like something out of professional wrestling.

  • Marshawn Lynch's Injury Cart says:

    Drogba’s sell job looked like something the Dudley Boys or Shawn Michaels would do. That takes skill.
