I'm think its because it wasn't anything racist. Henderson probably made a comment about an alleged sexual assailant that plays for Arsenal. 

He's gone up in my estimation .

 

 

Interesting. If the EFL goes ahead with broadcasting games at 3pm will the Premier League do the same.

The English Football League is willing to consider scrapping the Saturday 3pm blackout as part of their new TV rights deal from 2024.

The present £595m five-year deal with Sky Sports caused controversy when it was negotiated in 2018, with some Championship clubs believing it undervalued their competition.

However, there is a belief at the EFL that a bigger deal could be secured, amid hopes that streaming services such as Amazon, Netflix and Apple might show an interest.

Under the current agreement, Sky show at least 138 league matches a season as well as every play-off game and the Carabao Cup final.

They also show 14 ties from the earlier rounds of the Carabao Cup and the semi-finals and final of the EFL Trophy.

"Rights for all 1,891 matches across the league, EFL Cup, EFL Trophy and all end of season play-off matches are available for prospective bidders," said the EFL in a statement.

The rights to those games could not be sold without screening matches between 14:45 and 17:15 on a Saturday, which is currently prohibited.

Uefa impose the blackout when it is requested by the Football Association.

It was lifted as part of 'Project Restart' during the Covid pandemic to allow supporters to watch games when they were played behind closed doors, but then re-imposed again once fans were allowed back into stadiums.

EFL chief commercial officer, Ben Wright, said: "Alongside the EFL's rich tradition and distinguished history there is a desire to evolve, grow and innovate in order to grow our audience further and we're looking for a partner or partners who share that vision."

I've always wanted to know what was said to Terry to make him react ?  Anyone know ?

Ferdinand elbowed him a couple of times. At the trial he was asked about it, and he denied he had done it. So the defence produced video evidence which exposed his poor recollection/ caught him in a lie under oath. The players both admitted to winding each other up  and I seem to recall the alleged affair with Bridge's (and Eidur's) ex was mentioned to taunt JT. 

JT's defence (which he stuck to from the start) was that he thought Ferdinand accused him of calling him a BC, and the TV cameras caught him saying 'I never called you a FBC, you knobhead'. But Mikel walked across the camera shot between the word 'I' and 'a FBC'. No camera angle could provide the complete footage of everything JT said. And no player on either side heard what JT said.

Yeah, good job they didn't roll over !

Playing for pride is overated anyway!

Arsenal playing 4/5 first teamers (White, Saliba, Odegard, Saka, Tierney (?) ) in a Europa group they have control of.

Like i said last week, no way their depth holds through when the fixtures start piling up.

Yeah but Ferdinand wasn't even aware of it at the time it was some busy body tv viewer who complained.. Wind someone up....expect a reaction

Suddenly it was " hold the front page" ., What a circus....And wasn't the tv complainant an off duty old bill ?

 

Holy sh*t United is boring to watch 

How can they be struggling to score against that lot

Celebrating a 1-0 against a club from Cyprus lmao

"More than a club" though apparently 😄

Its ridiculous how they have gotten away with the last 6 months of shady sh*te, absolutely nothing from UEFA or FIFA, even when they threaten their own players with court action etc.

Pretty much any other club would have been hammered for it all.

As we say in Spain, Barsa is more than a club, it’s a “puticlub” (whore house).

think Carragher has been paid by Toney's people to promote him as a candidate for the England Squad

How are Barcelona fans not embarassed by how their club is run these days?

I have absolutely zero recollection of this happening (and this is coming from somebody who once watched Real Madrid vs Real Mallorca just to watch Ronaldo vs Alan Hutton):
