Talking about Alf Inge Haaland tackle, quoted in book Keane - the Autobiography . Such a nice fella.

Jah Lush Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 It was a bit like watching AVB's Spurs at the beginning of this season. Slow, tentative patient passing across the back four and midfield. BORING! The only plusses for me were Lalana, Lalana and err...Lalana. Wilshire played well when he came on. Sturridge did alright (good goal) but as a front pairing Rooney and Sturridge still aren't doing it for me. They play too far apart from each other.And what is the point of Welbeck?

maxxi Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 You're probably right but that sort of cagey shit always backfires. Playing that way is how the South Americans earn their bread and butter and they'll do it all day long and way better than England. I know it was a friendly and didn't count but remember Barnes in 84-"The Brazilians never put a tackle in, but maybe they were shocked." Barnes recalled. "They probably thought no Englishman could do this ? let him have a shot!"I'd settle for a moment or two like that and let's face it, trying to play their way will end in misery.ETA: There is NO f*cking point in Wellbeck Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35029-football-focus/page/120/#findComment-751397 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really couldn't be bothered. Btw. Keane has just gone from 3/1 on to 7/1 on with Paddy power for the Celtic job. Looks like he is the favoured candidate.Ps. Apparently he dodged a scheduled Irish press conference today so speculation on the increase.

Otta Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Keane may not have ended Harland's career, but that was more by luck than judgement. The fact Harland's leg wasn't planted saved him from something very nasty and intent was there.On this I am totally with PD, the man is a cunt.If someone tries to shoot you in the head but misses the mark and you survive, it doesn't excuse the shooter.

Mick Mac Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 My "is that really necessary" comment was intended as a subtle way of saying imo it's not very wise to make statements like that.

Mick Mac Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Indeed. There is nothing in it obviously but I just don't see the point of PDs post. It potentially offends other people on this forum 1 and 2 there is is not really any such thing as a local forum it's all out there, so why bother. We all think people are whatever they may be but we generally keep these views to ourselves both off and on line (and I mean that most sincerely folks) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/35029-football-focus/page/120/#findComment-751590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxxi Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Balls Mick. I have freely vented my feelings re Samuel Allardyce (amongst others) and whether it's a local forum a national one or one that has legions of Allardyce-loving Inuit after my blood and holding fund raisers to send a hit squad over to SE22 for my views, it's how I feel about the chappy. What's the point? Well that's a question a lot of forumites have asked themselves (usually before an EDF transmogrification and re-emergence) but life would be terminally dull if we all kept to ourselves what we think about others or have you never visited the Nunhead forum? (which currently seems to be in the hands of Norwegian Bots).For the record - my abiding memory of RK is a ManU visit to Upton Park with him strutting around like a cock (sic)as Beckham (a spoilt little brat at the time) spent the game committing niggly fouls on West Ham players and hiding behind Keane for protection every time someone wanted to discuss the matter.

Alan Medic Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 H?land is often remembered for his feud with Roy Keane, whom he claimed wouldn't dare look him in the eye, adding "I really dislike United and I can't stand their players". He also caused controversy by posing in front of offensive anti-United graffiti.[3]In September 1997, when Manchester United were losing 1?0 to H?land's Leeds United at Elland Road, Keane injured his anterior cruciate ligament. As Keane lay prone on the ground, H?land criticised Keane for an attempted foul and suggested that he was feigning injury to avoid punishment.[4] Keane was booked as he was stretchered off the field and was out of action for nearly a year afterwards.In April 2001, Keane fouled H?land on his right knee, for which he was sent off. Of the incident, H?land said "I'm only glad my leg was off the ground, otherwise he would have done me a lot of damage", although some reports doubted whether it was even the worst tackle of the games played that dayFrom wikipediaRevenge? Propably some of you Keane haters might have taken it out yourselves in this context.

Him> and Scholes would be a win double.The 'minority' also includes medical experts that carried out examinations on Haaland. These medical exams came about after Haaland read Keane's autobiography, and no doubt with ? signs flashing away, he decided to take legal action against Keane for ending his career. For a damages claim to stand up, he had to get independent medical opinion, which subsequently confirmed that Haaland's career was ended by another injury, and Keane's tackle played no part whatsoever in Haaland retring from the game. The legal action was immediately dropped. You were wrong to say that Keane ended Haalands's career, and you were wrong to say he broke his leg. You see 'my friend', that is what is known as facts, not the ramblings of a hate filled, bile spewing troll. You and anyone else is perfectly entitled to namecall Keane, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. As Mick said, it's a bit pointless and reflects more on the poster, but each to their own. I seem to remember you took umbrage that a poster called you a c*nt in the not too distant past. Seems that you like to dish it out but can't take it...
