Fella’s as mad as a mongoose. Funny though.Fucken hell.. and he wonders why refs never gives us a penalty.
The media ARE 100% implying that the incident happened despite the Met police finding NO evidence.

kingdawson disagreed with my post that i wan't his secretary which must mean that i am his secretary.
I better brush up on my shorthand.

...However, the media clearly reacted in the way they did because this was the first time (to the best of my knowledge) that the protocol had been followed in a match in the UK, at least certainly in the top flight, and so was always going to draw a crazy amount of attention...
I knew this Rudiger cheat made shit up to distract and divert the correct call being called on him. He had the whole set from the acting, eye rolls and to the guilty fucker look. I just knew it
Sorry dude, you are on your ownHoly cow dude... Don't leave us all hanging like this, can you show us where you got this info? link to article? Rudiger brain scan? so we can all see it...
I'm afraid you are wrong there. The reason the media reacted the way they did was because Rudiger gave them some lovely video footage and photos of him mimicking a monkey impression. This was ratings gold for them. If he'd simply told his captain what he thought he'd heard, the media would not have had this 'click bait', and there would not have been half the amount of airtime given to Spurs and it's fans being slaughtered in the media unfairly from all angles.
Yep, you said I was wrong in the post you quoted, and I disagreed. That's how it works.lol ArmadilloSackRace disagrees with me.
The below links took me about 10 seconds to find, and each one of them prominently shows the pictures of Rudiger mimicking monkey impressions:

The story won't go anyway, thanks to the reaction of some of the fans. Again the police are being forgotten in all this, if they find he purposely made a false allegation they can prosecute without the clubs say-so.
If they found that he purposely made a false allegation then he should be punished, simple as that really.It's not in the public interest to escalate this one. Can you imagine the shit storm at Slumford if they say it's a false allegation? Rudiger will be playing against us in a few weeks, and it would all kick off, before during and after. If I got caught up in any violence I'd hold the fuzz 100% to blame for being so stupid.
Football thuggery is like Terrorism in Ulster. It's just beneath the surface, just waiting for idiots to scratch it.
