What on earth is that about? Barry gave his views, hardly keyboard warrior like at all. And I happen to agree completely with him, Joe has barely mentioned the support he received from us over the years whilst praising everything the scousers do. Now I have no problem with him talking up the dippers, its what all new players will do and understandably so. But to almost completely ignore us fans who have supported him through thick and thin (and unfortunately its been more thin than thick) is nothing short of ridiculous.

  exactly.

in an interview with Talksport yesterday, the £100k per week Joker says that Steven Gerrard deserves to win the title, he loves life on Merseyside, the fans the people blah blah blah. he's looking forward to the game against Man U because games against Man U are always special. this is very much from a Liverpool persepctive. he doesn't mention the goal he scored against them last season, not a word about winning the title - nothing,

in fact he manages to avoid all mention of Chelsea, even when finally asked how he'll feel about returning to his former club. he says he still has a lot of friends there and that it'll be a special day for him. however, the impression i got was that the question embarrassed him and he  couldn't wait to get back to bigging up all things Liverpool.

Scott Parker is West Ham's saviour.

Liked him at Chelsea, but was never going to get into our team on a regular basis and I think he's found a club he can make a larger impact at in West Ham

His views just happen to be shrill, unreasonable, immature and incostistent. Hence, keyboard warrior. I'm not denying him the right to his views, but I am perfectly entitled to giving my opinion on them.

Joe maybe deserves criticism for failing to specifically heap praise on our continuous support of him, but that hardly justifies the "w****r" branding, does it? I distinctly remember him mentioning that "fans loved him" when the news of him joining the dippers emerged. For all we know, he might have more good words to say about us, but his career is far from over and he's putting his image before his gratitude. For all we remember, he never said anything in praise of Spammers' fans back in 2003. I'm not excusing him for doing that, I think it's shameful and disrespectful to supporters, but it hardly deprives him of the courtesy of basic decency when talking about him.

Tell you what, you go back and show me where he calls him a w**ker.

Ranieri's Roma team put in a piss-poor performance against Bayern Munich the other night and lost 2-0. I don't know how long he's going to be able to hang onto his job.

Am I to assume you find that reproachable?

And you, Barry Bridges? Would you two call him a "w****r"? Because if you wouldn't, I find that very hard indeed to distill from your posts.

And if you do find it too much, you are arguing my side of the argument. Because, tell you what, you go back and show me where I said Joe Cole was blameless.

Your argument makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. You said Barry called him a w**ker, he didnt. I also have never said you made Joe blameless.

[Chippy]

I can see where Virosh is coming from and I still have a lot of respect for Joe and what he helped Chelsea achieve, I'ts never nice to see ex players in opposition colours but its no surprise to have any of them saying good things about their new employers and fans,

I liken it to moving into a new House and telling the new neighbours your old neighbours were better...you wouldn't do it and they don't pay your wages.

Scott Sinclair scored yesterday for Brendan's Swansea (Brendan has taken another ex Chelsea youngster, Nouble, on loan from West Ham, how did we lose him)

[loz]

We lost him because he thought he had more chance of first team football at West Ham and wasn't keen on taking his chances against the stronger competition at Chelsea.  So he moved to West Ham, made a few first team appearances, did very little, and has noe been farmed out in much the same manner we farmed him out.  He is only 18 so still very much got his career ahead of him but it does inidicate we were right to reject any offers of first team exposure guarantees.

Your comprehensive incapability aside, would you or would you not call him a w****r based on what he's done and said so far? If you would, the keyboard warrior description applies to you as well, if you wouldn't, where are you, or Barry, saying it goes too far?

[SpAcE126]

Just wondering, does anyone know what happened to Ben Sahar? I remember him being sold to Real Sociedad then fall off the face of the earth!

They were poor last night as well. A friend of mine, Roma fan, rang me last Friday and was pretty down on him. I wouldn't be suprised if he gets the sack before Christmas such is the trigger happy nature of Italian football.

[loz]

If Roma sack Claudio now after how much they improved under him last season they would be idiots and deserve to go backwards the same way Juve did after they sacked him.

How about you just f**k off, comprehensive incapability my f**king arse. No, I wouldnt call him a w**ker, but I do think hes been out of order with the lack of gratitude he`s given back to fans who backed him the entire time he was at Chelsea, even when he was sh*t.

Just not accepting sh*te like "Your comprehensive incapability aside" from any f**ker, or the fact he seems to think me and Barry had called Cole a w**ker, which neither of us have.
