PLease explain how u think this?!?!
Fletcher maybe.
But Ronaldo, that was no way near obvious, wat are u talking about?!?
Yellow card for stumbling over, errr... no. Yellow card for finishing an offside attack, err...no.

It may not necessarliy have warranted a sending-off (although dissent is worth a yellow) but it certainly showed Ronaldo to have no brain.

For the second yellow, the whistle blew a few seconds before he kicked the ball, so he knew he wasn't finishing the attack. He knew the attack had ended because he heard the ref end the play. But, giving a second yellow for kicking the ball away is something that most refs won't do, most have the sense to have a word with the player and remind him he's on a yellow. It wasn't even what most people would consider kicking th ball away (usually it's hitting it as hard as you can in frustration like Fletcher did) and i don't think it deserved a yellow on it's own anyway.

A little surprised that Southgate didn't make the 23, and Joe Cole over Scott Parker maybe a little.
Not sure about Vassell over Smith, as not much to choose between the two, but overall, nothing too major really.

Few surprises, although personally i disagree with Walker being chosen, but i can see why it happened.

ipswich fan? nah i didnt go, sat in the uni gym for two hours cycling at about two miles an hour so i could watch it on sky sports, goddamn my legs hurt!
yeah, i cant believe you guys didnt sell out, really weird. hmm a one goal deficit, can still go either way, have you made it to the prem before? for todays performance you prob serve it, cant believe how poorly we played, disappointing!

1 goal deficit makes me very nervous i agree could still go either way
when we went up in 2000 we won via the playoffs, beat bolton in semis & barnsley in final 4-2 at wembley. before that we were in playoffs 3 times & got beat in semis each time.
i think youve got some players back for tom, while our already iffy defence might get worse with central defender john mcgreal substituted, he hasnt trained today.
both w.ham & ipswich fans believe that we should be in the prem, so lots of people gonna be v disappointed. (hope its not me, i think i've gone through enough - getting chucked out of 3 playoff semis, relegated by being beat 5-0 last day of the season at anfield, administration, selling all of our good players, missing outon playoffs last season etc etc the list goes on)
to newcastle fans, does titus bramble still have a habit of making your heart stop one minute out of fear , then next minute making an excellent challenge?

In case he recovers? Dunno.

Or maybe he's just there in an emergency, if theres no other choice than to play him.

I would have thought that they would have put him in the squad, and then get a standby if he didn't recover?!

No shock inclusions
Slightly disappointed not to see a young dynamic player like Shaun Wright-Phillips but on the whole a very solid team and, injuries considered, the best team England has.

Owen has shown it in the past but lately? And Rooney people have got carried away (ever since a certain goal vs Arsenal tbh) and he has a long way to go and a lot of maturing to do before he'll be world-class. In my opinion anyway

they really do. not that it matters but robinson got relegated then went to spurs who were in a relagation battle walker is division 1 and james is at man city and i wouldnt say they're doin very well either.

He just needs to be more consistent, and that goes for Robinson too.
Having a good defence tends to make keepers more confident when they have to do some work in games.
