Not Cool

Cris’s statue in Madeira has been vandalized with Messi’s name and number painted on his shirt. Douche move. You can be a fan of another player and not do something disrespectful like this. It doesn’t make you a better fan, it makes you an arsehole. I’d say the same if CR7 “fans” defaced a Messi statue. There’s no reason for this sort of dickery. Grow the fuck up.

UPDATED: Complete & Utter Douchweeds Of The Day: Racist Chelsea Fans In Paris

This is just disgusting. Some Chelsea “fans” decided to keep a black man from boarding the Metro. Then they started (clearly) singing “We’re racist, we’re racist and that’s the way we like it.”

Complete & Utter Doucheweed Of The Day: Willy Sagnol

Mouth open, ready for foot insertion.

Watishista mygypsyspirit sent me a link about this and we’re both in a rage. Bordeaux coach Willy Sagnol, who also played for Monaco, Bayern Munich and the French National Team, is a big ol’ racist dickhead. 

Another Bloody Nose

So this happened. After the Bastia vs PSG match Saturday, Bastia forward Brandao decided to wait around in the tunnel and headbutt PSG midfielder Thiago Motta. Then he ran away like a coward to the Bastia dressing room, with a bloody and fractured-nosed Motta in quick pursuit.

Another Loss, Another Visitor, Another Training & Another Group Of Fans Behaving Like Complete Arseholes

So much going on, most of it annoying. Let’s start with something positive though. Cristiano trained alone at the Cotton Bowl yesterday. It’s always good to see him on the pitch. Hoping he’ll be back to 100% soon.

And The Joke’s On Us

FIFA Congress votes to reject term limits, Blatter can run for president again. Zero reason not to have term limits for any elected official

— Grant Wahl (@GrantWahl) June 11, 2014

FIFA is just ridiculous and repulsive. Blatter will run again and more than likely win. I don’t know why we expect any different. Can anyone truly challenge this vile unethical bastard and his equally corrupt cronies? And would they be any better or just a lesser evil? The whole lot of them disgust me. I’m gonna go watch that John Oliver rant again.

Updated: Cristiano Spells It Out In No Uncertain Terms

Having seen (and been appalled by) the video yesterday, I was waiting to hear what Cristiano’s camp would say about Blatter’s comments but this artful bitchslap went beyond my expectations.

Total Douche Move Of The Day: Avenida De Iker Casillas Plaque Defaced

Watishista cy found this on fatridista’s Tumblr. Many of you will remember when Iker had a street named for him in his hometown of Mostoles back in January 2012. Well, now some total arsehole decided to make their thoughts on the Iker/DLo issue well known.

This? Repulsive.

Some a-hole Real Madrid “fan” was caught on camera making monkey noises at Dani Alves during yesterday’s match. What a douchebag. Three cheers however, for the fan who held up a sign saying “The team doesn’t matter, to racism you say NO” Damn straight you do.

Alves wants (and rightfully so) some sort of action from Spanish footballing authorities. I’d like to see our club speak out about this, find the fan and ban them along with any others responsible. This is bullshit. Please, Real Madrid, stand up to the arseholes. Make us proud by taking a strong stance. It’s long past time for some concrete action.

The Morning After

The boys got right back to work today (closed training) in preparation for the match in Cyprus vs. APOEL. In good news, it looks like The Silence is going to come to an end!
