Rory Delap's throw ins......

[mcfc_die_hard]

Had to pull your predecessor on very similar grounds, i.e failure of argument through inconsistency and perfectly willing to debate with you but read what I said about inconsistencies and then consider this previous piece of insight from you...

"I can't stand any team that has Craig Bellamy in it as he's without the doubt the most odious little shit bag in the Premier League. ;-D"

if you can't take an elegantly turned cliche then should you really be dishing out a crappy red top one?

I said you were entitled to feel that nobody likes you, surely you don't disagree?

Yet again my Bellamy response was just a direct answer and a bit of banter to the Jug eared one about Delap which was hardly elegant now was it? I even put a big smiley face on the end of it to show you i was only joking. Not sure what else i can do really. My argument hasn't been inconsistent though i don't think. If you skip passed the "banter" on both sides all i said is Rory's throws aren't more annoying than watching a bunch of divers surely? If it helps, try and imagine you don't have any (and after Bellamy and Adebayor i don't think you do, although Richards had a good go last week) and i'm talking about the likes of say Eduardo, Drogba and Gerrard. Which pisses you off more? Cheating has to be the scurge of the game at the minute surely and on the odd occasion Fuller does do it it embarasses me massively as it's not in the spirit of the game in my opinion.

Yes it's obvious nobody likes us and as you become more successful (as you will do) you'll find a lot less people like you either as you have all this money. In my opinion, good luck to you, all the others have bought it before you so why shouldn't you have your day in the sun. You'll find though as more and more jealous people do dislike you that will develop a siege mentality like we have and i'm sure you'll revel in it aswell as so you should.

i dnt mind you mate you put up a good argument its just i cnt stand the way stoke play

A simple question to our readers. Which is easier per Delap's throw?
1. Reactive to his throw and having a defensive mind to opponents action or
2. Proactive to Delaps throw and scoring/attacking without minding opponents actions.

i.e. one having two factors to contend with the other just being singular minded. How do we mitigate this?

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I've got a sense of humour and that made me laugh ;D

Thing is throwing yourself to the floor every 5 minutes and trying to con the ref isn't "playing the game properly" either is it?

You big boys with all your premadonnas have your ways of getting the job done and so do we, difference is ours isn't cheating and totally within the rules. ;-)

omg dont be silly how do we cheat?! you play the most discusting football since allardice at bolton

Delap kicked Sweep. Treason. Off to the Tower with the Irish Rover. Plenty of time to practise the netball side of his game.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Thanks mate. That's the most credit somebody's given us in ages. Normally it's Wimbledon. Are you suggesting it's cheating though? ;-)

Fuller does have his moments, i can admit that, but he's not that bad. One swallow doesn't make a summer though and the rest of our team don't do it as it's not Pulis' style. Trying to get Fuller to do as he's told is practically impossible though and i think he's given up trying. ;D

Don't try and tell me that Adebayor and Bellamy are angels though and i'd say they are both worse than Fuller. I did say "the big boys" though and not specifically you so it was more of a general comment about how the further up the league you go you will generally get more pansies who throw themselves to the ground and feign injury. That's a damn sight more annoying than a team that has a long throw surely? I will grant you that you're nowhere near as bad as the Arsenals, Chelseas and Liverpools of this world. I'll let your neighbours off this time though as now Ronaldo's gone they do seem to have cleaned up their act a bit.

i just cant stand teams that rely on a jug eared twat to throw it 40 yards for some 6ft 4 fucking donkeys to head in

Come on, with our money lets buy a 6ft 5 ins donkey to head it out!

C'est la vie. It's all about opinions eh? ;-)

Learn to show a little love and you'll find that Bellers is a mouthy guy who demands the most out of people, and if they give it, he's a pussy cat.

Stoke have an abiding virtue - Stoke CITY! Pity about the red stripes!

 

[without a dream]

His back foot is off the ground a lot of the time on his throws. Micah does that too though, not sure I've ever seen a throw in that wasn't a foul throw from Micah. Be nice if one of the lads pointed out Delap's foot to the linesman though.

Get a grip mate, banter both ways, just stop bleating when you get it back, surely you don't believe that sticking a smiley on the end of a post exonerates you from anything and if you can't spot a bit of banter without one on the end of mine, then tough! Just to put you right and to repeat...you keep on implying we cheat,your reference to the big boys etc, then you said you hadn't said it!! ...where are the examples of Bellamy cheating, he is quite clearly an honest player on the pitch and he and we have suffered for it this season mostly because you and others don't like him gobbing off, give me someone who is passionate and says what he thinks rather than some sneaky twat who cynically goes out to provoke a reaction anyday. I have no problem with you not being liked and defend your right to feel aggrieved at this, play to your strengths by all means but there's no denying it's unpleasant. You quite rightly laud your players for playing to the rules, but there's a limit where pure legality is pushed and this is not Rugby Union where it's only morally wrong when the ref says so, you keep kicking players from behind and otherwise until you provoke a reaction and gain an advantage doing so, we've seen it against you too many times not to be wise about it, shame the Ref's aren't so quick on the uptake. It may be affective but we don't have to like it even if you have to persuade yourself there's nothing wrong with it. West Ham, Reading, ourselves under KK have proved you don't have to play that way to survive in the prem. Oh, and yes, once again I am not having a go at you feeling under siege, we do too at times, and it's perfectly understandable, as is why! .......in your case shit football, in ours' jealousy ;-D ( hope the emoticon helps! )

 

[manchester blue]

I don't think some blues would be that bothered about Delap's throw ins if we could defend them but we can't as we've proved in the last two games. It's in the rules so it's not up for debate. Teams will gain an advantage and play however they can with the staff at their disposal. Rather like when we had Stuart Pearce.

As for Bellamy being a diver I don't think that's in his game but Adebayor could certainly try to stand on his feet more. Diving hasn't been the City way in general aside from a certain player who also played for Derby, not Kinky!

 

[ZanteWeatherman]

Don't really see what all the fuss is about with Stoke using Delaps throw. If we had someone in our squad that could do that i'd want it thrown in the mixer time and time again. Stoke don't play pretty football but they play to their strengths and it works for them.

Bang on.

We get a throw in and struggle to find a blue shirt.

Can't get my head around Micah's throw ins, they are shite.
