Chelsea fined over ref protests
-
LONDON (AFP) - Chelsea were fined 40,000 pounds (79,000 dollars) by the Football Association on Thursday after admitting a charge of failing to ensure their players conducted themselves correctly during a stormy 2-0 win over Derby in November.
Chelsea were charged after a posse of their players, led by captain John Terry, angrily confronted referee Andre Marriner following the red card he gave to Ghanaian midfielder Michael Essien for elbowing Kenny Miller in injury-time.
The incident caused a number of observers to question whether Terry's conduct was appropriate for a captain of England's national side and helped to fuel speculation about whether he will continue in the role under new head coach Fabio Capello. -
JT is right to do that.. after all the refree is a mofo

i disagree...Originally posted by youyayu:JT is right to do that.. after all the refree is a mofo
even if the ref makes the worng decision, and i stress on "if"
you just cant go there and protest the way JT and Co always do..
ever since he got the england armband, he starts to be yaya papaya and thinks that he is bigger than ref.. -
As usual lah... Terry at it again... If they were playing an international match his behaviour will only make the rest of the England players more aggressive... Once one can't control, the rest will follow...

To make it worst, he's their captainOriginally posted by zocoss:As usual lah... Terry at it again... If they were playing an international match his behaviour will only make the rest of the England players more aggressive... Once one can't control, the rest will follow... -

their glowing jersey very nice

that uncle abc point of view and that doesn't mean that he is right
funny to See Arsenal Surrounding ref several times and involve in fights / arugement with opposition team several times but not fine or anything -
Maybe money isn't but reputation certainly is... They have got rid of their previous manager cos he was giving them a bad name...Originally posted by seotiblizzard:money is nothing to chelsea.

But did they snatch the card from the ref before?Originally posted by ghimpheng:that uncle abc point of view and that doesn't mean that he is right

i agree with you that is my personal opinion,Originally posted by ghimpheng:that uncle abc point of view and that doesn't mean that he is right

i believe that he is a very good defender, probably one of the best in world.
but as the england captain, who is supposed to be a role model for the young kids, his behaviour of confronting the ref and the attempt of trying to "help" mike dean to "hold" dean's red card is not exatly a role model for young kids.
what if the young kids all think that they are JT and start confronting the ref.? -
more like referees are nuthing to J.T & Co...Originally posted by seotiblizzard:money is nothing to chelsea. -
did he hold dean card ? i never saw that but anyway i tot that challange should be awarded @ most a yellow instead of a red.Originally posted by uncle_abc:i agree with you that is my personal opinion,

Role Model ? alot of footballers aren't Role Model Anyway. Maybe you should ask C.Ronaldo do cut down on his diving so that Man u fans that admire C.Ronaldo and that play football won't dive too much.
Role Model - Walcott (Good Boy) -
if you miss the holding of dean's red card, you probably didnt know he got fined for that also by the FA..Originally posted by ghimpheng:did he hold dean card ? i never saw that but anyway i tot that challange should be awarded @ most a yellow instead of a red.

since that you mention Ronaldo,
even C Ronaldo is cutting down on his diving as compared to his initial arrival in england
and he scores 22 goals so far this season,
but did JT try to improve his antics on pitch with the ref??
again my personal opinion
at least there is no visible effort by JT to cut down on his "yaya papaya" -
I agree, especially when he's the captain. He really doesn't lead by example.Originally posted by zocoss:As usual lah... Terry at it again...

Wow, C.Ronaldo again? If u really have eyes, C.Ronaldo has cut down on his diving tremendously compared to last season. Thats why you don't see so many news regarding him diving in order to help Man U to winOriginally posted by ghimpheng:did he hold dean card ? i never saw that but anyway i tot that challange should be awarded @ most a yellow instead of a red.

whatever it is, it's wrong to go against the ref in a game.

maybe u should read up on what JT and his Co did in a bar where he peed on into a cup and onto a bar floor... all tis when he was still an 'injured' player and a English Captain...Originally posted by ghimpheng:did he hold dean card ? i never saw that but anyway i tot that challange should be awarded @ most a yellow instead of a red.

JT is right to do that.. 1 mistake = whole match... told u all le FA siding with MAN UTD so no point.. i going to watch la liga.. no point..
-
