It was strange tuning in straight after the European Rugby Final and watching the cards dished out for indiscipline. It take some adjusting. When Sergio Ramos was booked, I couldn't work out why, all he did was a simple shove with his chest. Had that been after an incident in the Rugby he would have simply been told to 'leave it and walk away'.
The funniest incident I ever had, after having watched a Rugby match, was coming to the AMEX shortly after for the Blackpool game. A long defensive clearance from a Blackpool defender went into touch at the half way line. I thought to myself how smart the kick was and expected the players to run across for the line-out.
Imagine the confusion my poor little brain would have if Mr Warnock was appointed manager....

He'll probably be tossing a coin with Clement in the bar right now over who takes the Brighton job. Hopefully he'll lose, i don't want someone i don't personally like running the club.

I don't see the problem with that either, he has taken an unfavoured side in Spain to the league title and a couple of minutes away from winning the final of the champions league on a budget equal to Fulhams. He has also got his players playing for him and also showing passion, as one said before the match, if Simone asked them to jump off a bridge, they would.
Do you think that they would have had anywhere near the success they have had this seaon with a sedate manager in charge [MENTION=38]Beach Hut[/MENTION] ?

An off the ball kick? Beckham has taken responsibility for that, I suggest others move on. It's been 16 years... Christ, I'm old. 16 years!?

Some people on here say they would not like Simeone as our manager. In your dreams. He is one of the hottest managers in europe and won't be coming our way any time soon. He has won the Spanish league, smashing the duopoly, and came that close to the double.
He also did it on a smaller budget than QPR.

Why can't they be like calm lovely Brits?

I should coco
Simone admitted making a meal of it. He seems very embarrassed when reminded of the incident as it didn't do his Hardman of football image any good. Typical South American, lock him in a room on his own and he'll end up having an argument! That said he did Madrid and Barcelona in liga which should be commended. Athletico were just too cynical for me and his historonics were embarrassing. Excellent manager but a liability.
You don't forgive him for being the recipient of the most pathetic, petulant act in the history of the England football team?
What would you be saying now had it been exactly the same but the other way around and been Beckham doing the dying swan act?
Did Simeone make a meal of it? Yes. Was Beckham a thick **** for doing it in the first place? Equally, yes.

Good point, well made.

Says a man who hasn't the cojones to hold a grudge against anyone....or do you?
Those of us there in St Etienne will always recall this day and quite rightly think poorly of DS. Why not?

The ball certainly was kicked at his head. Unless he was lying flat on the floor.
