It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

Is that fine legally binding?

Probably Fred, but if not I'm sure that the FA will find a way to enforce it.

Skinny..I thank you -):

I think its "in force" - it just needs to be enforced! :-)

Actually I do remember years ago a referee I used to work with did say that their are "No rules in Association football.. their all Laws! so there we are.

In the distant past I can remember Terry's "comments" being made in banter in many changing rooms, without all the eye lid flutter.

Didn't like it at the time, but Terry and his mates are supposed to be adults and should be able to tolerate it.

-----------

Mitchell, it seems to me, because of his position was far more intentionally "offensive" than a pleb.

glad you all have so much more insight than a british court of law

Farcical imo, and I hope JT takes it to appeal

Well thank you for the complements, and he can appeal all he likes but that doesn't alter the fact that he's one nasty piece of work.

that wasn't the charge, but if it makes you feel connected with the rest of the PC brigade then good for you

So you don't deny that he is one nasty piece of work.. well at least we agree on that.

I find it a shame that british soccer is all talk about JT in a heated moment having a nasty go at another player.....I prefer to talk about the football itself.....

Plenty of other football news about RF, just ignore what does not interest you like the rest of us. By the way do you support any particular Club or are you just a general football fan?

Armchair fan of Leeds UTD....

Leeds are Dil's second club aren't they RF ?.. Whatever a second club means.

Here come the girls - Arsenal celebrate title with Doncaster win

Stan...not sure....

Leeds are my first club Stan ... first ENGLISH club just as Celtic are my first Scottish club.

Neither are a patch on Cardiff City though.

well done Dil - a supporter of the most detested english, scottish and welsh clubs going

No I think you'll find that's Chelsea , Rangers and Swansea.

Detesting should be reserved for - abuse by too many fans - abuse of the referee - players using facebook and twittering (well named) - and waste of time hearings that JT has been through. I could go on about "diving" and Managers backing players who receive a well deserved red card. Pulling shirts and hugging in the box is disgraceful and not picked up by the Refs to punish these millionaire cheats.
Such abuse as JT may well have given happens in nearly every match in the Premiership of this I have no doubt.
If only we could return to the days when players earned a living wage (some even had part time jobs elsewhere) and fans supported the beautiful game (no booing etc in those days)
Looking forward to the game tonight when Chelsea hopefully will let off as much steam as me !!

Seconded but no need to look further than Chelsea for diving champions !
