If Henry's challenges were so bad then he should have been booked and sent off over them. I have no problems with that. I don't care whether the challenges were on Barton or a 17 year old kid making his debut, the ref should have punished them.

But my issue is with Gaz crying because Barton got tvvated, but if the recipient had been John Terry he'd have been delighted by it.

Im not really crying per se, just pointing out facts that if Barton had done what Henry did, he would have walked, simple.

I dont really cry over 'want to be hard' footballers, as most of them wouldnt last 5 minutes in a decent battle, and Henry's gameplan from the start was just to hammer Barton time after time.

And he got punished for the ones that where fouls, going in hard doesn't make it a foul

I didnt realise i said it did? ? ?

I used to play football at a decent level, i was a defensive midfielder and my game was hard but fair, keep it simple, win the ball, pass it on, which is why i got recognised.

However, a lot of Henry's challenges on Barton were fouls, but then again the referee did get a lot wrong on that afternoon, so i suppose it was in-keeping with his performance.

A few of them where fouls yes which is why he was booked eventually, none of them where bad challenges though.

The only thing he got wrong in regards to cards was booking Barton the first time he breathed

I dunno, as a human being I find it quite offensive that that odious little turd is able to steal some of the atmosphere's precious oxygen.

Moyes has gone fav for the Villa job with a lot of bookies tonight. Paddy Power go 5/4, Bet365 3/1, VC 6/1 and Skybet 11/4.

As if.
