Mick Mcarthy Press Conference

[crisps]

Anyone seen this on SKY NEWS? Exposing bad refereeing and FA inconsistency on his press conference, probably get fined but I like the idea of exposing these idiots.

[Walrus]

Well, this I'd like to see. They mentioned on the Football Weekly podcast that McCarthy had mentioned something like "As long as there's a hole in my bum, that (Milijas challenge) wasn't a red card. They also sent out a pretty strong worded statement by the club yesterday about how disappointed they were with the appeal not going throug

Good man Mick.

[Case]

McCarthy is class. Love him.

[aka Dus]

He's done a Kenny and got the overhead projector out today. Anyone got a link of the footage? From the brief bit just there he seemed very reasonable.

[Epic Swindle]

They've just showed it on the post match stuff, the sending off was a complete joke, especially when you think Cabaye didn't even get a yellow card tonight.

[dorgie]

I wonder who the other PL manager was who texted him saying it was a joke?

[Buzz]

I liked it when TalkSport I think it was, got him on the phone to talk about one subject and started asking him questions about Rafa and if he had lost the dressing room and should be sacked. Mick promptely told them what he thought of reporters asking that sort of thing, that he wasn't going to talk about another manager and his position and hung up.

Brilliant!!

Dunno about txted but Slur apparently said after the game it was harsh or shouldn't have been a red or something like that, I don't really listen to things concerning him, it makes me angry.

It was actually R5 (Shelagh Fogarty) who had him on when we were playing Lyon on the (tenuous) grounds that he had played for the French club.

 

The rest is as described. "I came on here to talk about a match, not another manager's job" Click brrrrr

Very good interview with him after today's game.

and rotating back to the Rooney/England thing - 2 games for deliberately kicking someone on the field, or 3 games for his guy & it wasn't even a foul.

 

I'm really starting to hate football, the game I love, the administration is f***ed beyond belief

You're so right. And QPR appeal on Barton's red thrown out today too. It's simply laughable now after they appealing Rooney. Surely Colin will go to town on them in his next PC ?

[Earl Hafler]

Several of the clubs should get together and complain.

 

The Rooney / Barton comparison is just one example of many that show how bad, how inept the FA are.

[crisps]

They're getting worse at an alarming rate! Really starting to piss everyone off.

 

Seriously how long before there is a huge backlash and what the f*** can be done about them by the clubs???

Shocking double standards innit. Sod the integrity of the game, self serving scum.

and unfortunately we'll all agree with him

Colin is great. Adds to the gaiety of the nation.

[Nebraska Red]

"Nobody gives a f***ing toss about barton, he's always been a thug"

 

will have been the comments made during the 5 second appeal discussion.

 

how they can fail to see the dive and not take into account the antics at the darts tournament is beyond laughable.

[Buzz]

Barton used Dempsey V Bellamy heabutts as a comparison too.

[domlfc]

Barton used Dempsey V Bellamy heabutts as a comparison too.

But that didn't happen. Beyond a joke the FA are, how they have not rescinded Barton's red card is ridiculous.

Shame he didn't mentions the two faced f*****s appealing against Rooney assaulting someone.

[Flasher]

Colin is great*
