The biggest cheat in the Premiership: Ricardo Carvalho

FACT.

 

Did you fill your boots at Cheltenham? nt

 

Witchetaw Lineman

bumped into someone in the trainers and owners enclosure who knew McCoy and his actual words were "if you back anything today, back me on that", hehe, 15/8 dint do too much damage to the bookies, but helped settle my champagne and sea food platter tab. Weather bit disappointing, but good day out and not a bad journey back either.

Aintree next, wittweedjacketandtrousersart

 

I only bet on the last day , I had Airforce One at 33-1 EW , he ran 2nd to the Lineman.

Still ended up 20 quid down on the day.

the last 3 races were very damaging, all won by unknowns, and I had 5 outta 6 on the placepot too, never mind, Ive got a nice little 10 game accumulator on the Internationals over Sat/Weds.

England to win agin Israel?

 

RE: I only bet on the last day , I had Airforce One at 33-1 EW , he ran 2nd to the Lineman.

nope. Ive only gone for absolute bankers and I can see a few players going to Tel Aviv with a warning not to get injured given that most of the squad are still in Europe, Cup and the title race.

You must have piled on then , as 10 banker bets in footy you'd be lucky to get 50-1 combined odds.

 

Ronaldo. No doubt about it. Don't care how much talent he has. He's an amoral gamesman. nt

 

RE: Won by unknowns?

You obviously know **** all about racing then.....

 

RE: Won by unknowns?

well spotted.

 

are you a millionaire by any chance?

Carvalho dives and feigns injury just like Ronaldo, but is in a different league when it comes to trying to do the refs job, begging for opponents to get cards/sent off, and he's the king of the well disguised professional foul. makes up for his lack of pace by swapping shirts, standing on the odd achilles, and general low down tactics. so much for the foreign contingent bringing a level of professionalism to the English game.

 

Have you only just worked that out?

He can't defend a corner without a handful of an opponents shirt. It would be a penalty every time the opposition gets a corner if I was reffing.

 

It seems shirt pulling at corners is the norm, never seems to get punished nt

 

FIFA were supposed to have a crackdown on it, seems to have

fallen by the wayside like their other crackdowns on diving and showing imaginary cards.</p>

I'd do the imaginary card wavers if I was reffing too, it'd be 'yes, here's a yellow one just for you!'</p>

 

Denis Law and Ian Ure................................?

Can anyone remember the game in the 60s when these two ripped each others shirts to shreads?</p>

Law was with Manure and Ure was with Arsenal if my single memory cell serves me right.
</p>

Plenty of shirt pulling then!</p>

corners are something that annoys me about refs

They always blow to stop people taking corners because theyve spotted a bit of pushing in the box. Mysteriously though, all players behave themself perfeclt from the second the ball is kicked, or according to the ref they do.

I think they should stop blowing before the kick is taken and just let the team kick it and then blow straight away for a freekick or penalty. It's the only way to stop it

 

Fact. I hate Carvalho. He is of similar character to Lehmann. Who i also hate. Agree about the corners situation at the moment. Although it is only endemic in the Premier League.
