The Mail Bag

The thug who threw an object

To the individual who threw an object at Toure, your a coward and not an evertonian or even a football fan. You're a disgrace and I hope to high heaven that you are found and disciplined accordingly. Cowardly malicious scum like you sully Everton and the game as a whole and you aren't welcome anymore.

How is Mr Berezofski so sure that something was thrown? There was nothing in the slow motion replay which points to a missile being thrown. Can we just assume there was something blowing around in that windiest of corners of the ground or are we to immediately think the worst when a player reacts like this?

Are you sure that Toure thought he had been fouled and decided to jump around like the other prick, so until you get all your facts right, fuck off!

So Boris, you were at the match were you? I take it you saw the incident clearly then?

No! Never mind hey at least all the papers will make a massive deal about it and a complaint will be received by the FA......what’s that? No coverage in teh papers or MoTD!!!

Strange that isn’t it?

If an Arsenal player had an object thrown at him, I am sure that he would be initially on the floor, writhing and wriggling around, stretchered off and come back on the pitch after seeing his mum to kiss it better, and for an elastoplast and a bandage. I dont believe any Arsenal player after some of the episodes yesterday.

What a silly bunch you are. If someone threw something at Toure he/she is indeed both a scumbag & a coward among many cowards that attend football matches these days. I watched the game on TV and there was some fool telling Clichy to fuck off "you stupid french fucker". How clever and artistic. Imagine having the nerve to take a throw-in at an away ground. And Simon, as for your point about not believing Arsenal players, yes Fabregas dived and probably got Arteta sent off but what goes around comes around. I was disgusted with Arteta’s dive in the corner in the first half not to mention the "great pro" Phil Neville who decide to take a tumble over Gallas’ leg before apologising through embaressing. Isn’t it terrible when this beautiful game turns so ugly thanks to players & fans alike.

It was his contact lens, the bbc should have said as well.

If you look closely at the replay you will see that he is holding his lower abdomen Boris, so either the Yak accidently caught him, or he could have the begining or a groin strain...

Boris, as said by many posters and the fact I was just yards away and watched countless replays get this through mate - FUCK ALL WAS THROWN AT TOURE - NO POLICE OR STEWARDS WADED IN AT THE PARK END WHICH IS UNDER CAMERAS - Toure was yards away from any other player when it happened the nearest being his own keeper it was play acting of the filthiest cheating bastard speciality which I can only assume was the mantra of Arsehole Whinger at half time.

I blame that Arteta. After all what was he doing waving his arms around if he wasn’t intending to throw something.........

Juan you pretentious prick! It's not cowardly to shout abuse at a player at all. It's cowardly to THROW something, thats fair enough, but as everyone has said nothing was thrown!

The day I go to a home game and the opposition don?t get booed for cheating and called horrible names ? that's the day football becomes boring!
You and everyone like you is a pc twat! Is that elloquent enough?
And before you say, calling someone a French fucker isn?t racist!It's insulting but NOT racist! The insult is not in the french part of the phrase, it's in the fucker part of it!

By the way "Juan", how many Everton players in the past 5-10 even 15 years have "got someone sent off?" The last one I remember was Neville in the derby against Kuyt, oh no, wait a minute, he got up, didn?t approach the ref and got on with the game!!!

The only time i?ve ever seen a player from Everton "get someone sent off" was kevin Ratcliffe against Vinny Jones when Ratters went down like he?d been shot after a headbutt!

So no, what goes around doesn?t come around!

Juan Roman are you an Everton Fan or a neutral, or an Arsenal fan. There have been a few Arsenal fans on here today pretending to be blues. Dont know why. Obviously their own websites are boring and in French or something.

I think this thread should closed, its been proved nothing was thrown so end of it, its become another slanging match between middle class political class merchents to the working class fan who dosen’t mind a bit of abuse directed to £100 000 a week players who lets be honest dont give a shit what opposing fans scream at them its been like since I have been going the matches since the 60s, so please you toffy nose gits go back to rugga old bean a gentlemens game played by right wing thugs.

If Boris really lives on the Isle of Wight you would think he’d know how to spell it.

And Juan, if someone paid me 70k a week, and I got a bit of abuse here and there. I wouldnt have a problem. Its all part of football. If you let that get to you??You get that sort of think when you play a team away. You get that driving down the road. It?s people like you that allow this pampering, and over reaction. They will be putting cotton wool round the goal posts next. Footballers are getting so soft. Getting upset when someone call them names. Rolling all over the floor crying. Thats not good for the modern game. Its like being at junior school.

@Jimmy, mate are you honestly saying rugger is a gentleman?s game played by thugs? lol. I believe the phrase is "football is a gentleman?s game played by thugs, but rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen". You dont have to be middle class to enjoy rugby, I?m as working class as you can get but I love watching rugby (I also sat in my living room turning the air blue towards Fabregas after his oscar winning performance) and after the acting on show yesterday from BOTH Everton and Arsenal players I begin to understand why I?m turning to rugby more and more as my weekend sport.

On a different point in reply to the original post, Toure never claimed to have been hit by any kind of thrown object, he went down onto his knees and waved one of the other Arsenal players to carry on. While I don't know what was wrong with him he was in no way trying to suggest he?d been hit. I don't know who you are, Boris but do I detect the stench of RS on the board? COYB
