Richard Keys on Al-Jazeera

by shahid on June 21, 2008

I thought I’d seen it all, but obviously not - Richard Keys, the Sky Sports presenter famous for talking to the camera when he should be talking to his guest, has been presenting Euro 2008 for Al Jazeera Sports!

A Muslim friend of mine recently told me that globalisation has already happened, there is nothing anyone can do to stop it and I should get used to the idea. I should add that he was quite happy about it too. He calls himself a citizen of the world. Richard Keys is clearly following in his footsteps. It’s just not what you expect to hear Keys to say though, is it? “This is Richard Keys for Al Jazeera Sport”.

Chelsea lose the Champions League Final

by shahid on May 21, 2008

I’m a Liverpool fan. So you might be surprised to hear that I was cheering on Manchester United tonight. The thing is, I despise Chelsea. I’m delighted. Delighted that a team that includes arrogant divers like Drogba (whose sending off I applauded), that is managed by an Israeli and owned by a Russian Zionist thief got beaten by a team I would ordinarily consider the enemy of Liverpool.

Football is football, but cheats, occupiers and thieving oligarchs are another thing altogether.

Chelsea represent everything that is detestable in the modern game.

So yes, I was delighted when John Terry missed. He is after all, the fake who was too “injured” to help England qualify for Euro 2008, but who miraculously recovered to lead his club side out within 72 hours. I enjoyed seeing his eyes red with tears, because now he knows how England fans feel.

On a footballing level, I respect Ryan Giggs’ achievement. He is a true professional, having never got into any trouble, never appeared in the gossip columns, who looked after his body and concentrated on football. One of the game’s greats.

I was so pleased to see Drogba walk off in disgrace after slapping Tevez. Drogba is not only ugly, but he wears a miniscule hairband to keep his pathetic braids in check and he is a self-confessed diving cheat who goes down quicker than a porn star.

Bye by Chelsea. You are not winners. And I’m still laughing at Gerrard pushing over Avram Grant in the semis.

Bye bye Chelsea. Bye bye.

Champions League Muppets

by shahid on May 17, 2006

That useless fake Gabby Logan is hosting the most important club game in the European calendar. I’ve written about her before of course, so I shall limit my diatribe somewhat. She still comes out with crap that only a fake could spout.
