I like soccer, but not played like that ! Turning it off is not the solution and I am hoping that this kind of behaviour will not escalate.

I think it was very generous of Leicester to let 'Uddersfield win their Cup replay last night...Especially after the result of their league match on New Year's Day

Can we all please stop talking about "soccer". I agree with Delboy - the thread is about "Football". The clue is in the title !

As a Leeds United supporter Romig I wonder what you think about Mark Robins as a replacement for Simon (Mr Personality) Grayson?
I rather admired Lee Clark and was sorry to see him depart, although did he not get on with your Chairman?
Neither would Nigel Adkins I surmise.

Although having adopted Ipswich Town as my team in the last 10 years (pressured by swmbo, a suffolk gal) My first team has always been juventus ( Italian parentage). i must say, I thought Celtic played well last night but they tired and we hit them, but they gave as good as we sent. As for the comments regarding the roughness of the game, as said, it is Italian football and it is played by men, never mind the namby pamby, overpaid divas of the premiership, this is how real football is played, This is why England have not won anything since 1966, the team in those days consisted of men and they could take the rough and tumble.

Did I imagine it, or did Balotelli just move back to Italy ?!

yes, but after they knock his premeirship divaness out of him he will be ok, when he actually gets round to playing football he is quite good. He didnt do too bad when they stuck an Italia shirt on him, got to the final.

Ah, those were the days !

My dad was a fullback. At corners his job was to protect the keeper from chargers.

Great Goal from Ronaldo, how high did that guy climb to get in that header.

Real Madrid v Manchester United - well ! what a game ! Good goal from Welbeck and a stunner from Ronaldo. He must have springs in his boots! Eagerly awaiting part two .......

Watched a bit of the game...The 'Holiday Hit Squad' and 'DIY SOS: The Big Build' on the BBC was a tad more interesting.

Did you see the attendance..85454..some small League clubs don't get that many in a whole season, let alone one match...I wonder how much the tickets were?

Thanks QB

Blimey....They are more expensive than I thought they were...The cheapest I could see was 50 euros..up in the clouds.....cheaper than Arsenal or Chelsea though.

Thought in was nice to see the two managers had a very warm hug after the final whistle last night

Does any footie fan share my belief that the "great one" will be back managing a Premiership club next year

Morning Footie fans

Yet another cracking game last night at White Hart Lane

The star of the show -Mr Bale - yet another young man who learnt his trade at St Mary's

Must be the delicious meat pies special to this great club, some folk just come to enjoy the pies

The football is secondary

Two superb free kicks from Mr Bale but I thought the game was poor overall ... boring just a tad

I agree with Mob. There was very little to applaud apart from the 2 free kicks from Gareth Bale. Neither team really got going and Spurs were fortunate not to have a penalty awarded against them. I have seen penalties given for much less that that.

He was helped a great deal by the Huddersfield Town defence during their game.
