petty i know but it just bugs me

Submitted by mcbikeman on

Okay its a slow week so I thought I would post this and see what else annoys you about football...for me its the whole away kit/3rd/4th/5th/etc that really really annoys me...back in the day if there was a colour clash teams of course change into the away kit which was of course perfect but nowadays because of commercialism kits of all colours are warn colour clash or not....for instance arsenal against sheff wed in the cup no colour clash there yet arsenal played in some dreadful all blue kit errrrr sheff wed play in blue white stripes so arsenals traditional red and white would of been perfect......now sunday quite a rarity occurred with arsenal/spuds both playing in there club colours...this is how things should be...I love our away kit but when it doesn't clash with the home team then lets wear our claret&blue its who we are and I like seeing clubs who play us at the Boleyn in there traditional kit if no clash occurs....petty I know but like I said it just bugs me

Dont get me started bikey ,
1 they all get off the bus wearing ear phones because they couldn't be arsed signing a few autographs
2 substitutions,why dont they stop them with say five minuets to go ,sometimes they bring on al sub with seconds to go .
3. This pre match high five and hug ,big girls blouses.
4. Match citing ,as we know to our cost this would be good .
5. As in rugby no one questions the refs decisions, only the captain ask him about his decisions. This following the ref around the pitch wheln they know full well he wont changel his mind .

Burkie how about this one, the way the ref marks where the ball for a free kick but allows the players to take a corner from as good as outside the box.why bother having a corner flag anymore? Or when a player runs into a defender, that doesn't get out of his way, HE gets the free kick because the defender just stands where he is. Gloves, tights and now snoods! Thought it's a mans game.

I have been moaning about this for ages why change when the colours don't clash. But as you say all down to making more money and screwing the fans even more. One thing I would like to see change is when a player go's off after treatment. I would say more than half don't need treatment in the first place. I would like to see what they do in rugby, tend to him on the pitch and play around them. If it is a bad injury yes then stop play , all this walking off then getting waved on is just a total waste of time.

Don't think in football it's feasible to play around an injured player but waving them straight back on ridiculous so a two minute delay would make them think twice. Maybe hold them up by and independent doctor checking them over before they rejoin the play. Then they won't go down so easily

Problem is, if your player is injured giving away a free kick around the box you open yourselves up to being reduced to 10men in a dangerous situation. That's the probelm with the current situation. The players are such actors now that it's tough to knw if it's serious or not. I'm sure the pyshio gets to the player and almost winces in disgust that having to get off his seat to "treat" a fairy who's dived to win a free kick and the only thing hurt is the grass.

Biggest bug of all, players that feign injuries to the face when contact was nowhere near, rolling around like a piece of litter in the wind... Grrrr!

we need referees that are MEN and can stand up to high net-worth players. Let play go on by all means, but then they should come back for the free kick if no advantage gained
