FUCK IRELAND. We are having a good laugh in France as WE FUCKED YOUR FUCKING IRISH FOOTBALL TEAM. Vive la France. God save England. Ireland: money suckers, drunkards, dirt, mud, rain, unfriendly and ill mannered people. Even in Canada and Australia they got fed up about the micks. Anyway Patrick was a welsh monk, unfortunately shipwrecked in Ireland.

Thierry,
Your admission and attempt at a belated apology is hollow.
You are and always have been a brilliant soccer player.
You never needed to cheat.
However, this is not the first time that you have, and may not be the last.

For me, you lost all credibility as a person and professional sportsman on Wednesday night.

And here’s why:
You try to excuse the incident as instinctive – maybe it was.
However, you had ample time from the moment it happened, through the scoring of the goal right up to the restart of the game to point out to the referee that you had cheated – but you didn’t.

It’s your problem, your issue and you will have to live with it for the rest of your life.

It’s not something I would like to have to live with.

The best of luck with it.

Des

Football is a profoundly corrupt game as correctly pointed out above. Corruption is endemic. It seeps down from the top, from FIFA, who as pointed out here weeks ago, – http://bocktherobber.com/2009/10/fifa-fiddle-world-cup-qualification-process – rigged the play offs in favour of the bigger nations. They, FIFA, invoked the world seedings at the tail end of a qualifying campaign because of fears thatFrance, Germany and Portugal would get dragged into the play offs, which France and Portugal did.
Hence, France, who are sponsored by Addidas, who are one of FIFAs three main sponsors for the World Cup,were in the top seeds – and Ireland in the bottom seeds – when the draw was made for the play offs.So far so good as far as FIFA was concerned. The deck was stacked and France couldn’t be drawn against the Portugal and the sybarite Ronaldo, big sigh of relief from the various sponsors, who keep FIFA in the style they are accustomed too. Meanwhile, Ireland come out of the hat first in the play off draw,meaning that they had to play at home first.France would have home advantage for the second leg. Another advantage to France.Every team wants home advantage for the second leg because the second leg is always the decider. It’s the leg where you know exactly what you have to do – at home. Meanwhile,
Ireland get 90 minutes in Dublin, and France gets 120 minutes in Paris. The French got 30 minutes extra at home in a so called “two legged” tie. How was this allowed? Surely, in the interest of fair play they game should have gone to penalties after 90 minutes in Paris?. Either that or Ireland should have been allowed 30 minutes extra time to try and find an equaliser in Dublin? Bock is correct. The French knew, or to be more exact, assumed they were going to qualify. This is why they had their World Cup kit ready for launch the day after after they “beat” Ireland. Those World Cup kits were already produced in other words -
at massive cost. The only part of the equation that FIFA could not control was Ireland. But surely Paddy could be relied upon to do the decent thing and lose. Unfortunately, Paddy didn’t read the script. The fucker upped and played France off the field in Paris. This is why Henry resorted to cheating. Having been facilitated by FIFA, and assuming that the Paris game was a fait accompli, France viewed the second leg as a mere formality too a triumphant march down the Champs Elessey en route to South Africa. But FIFA and France couldn’t control Ireland. Hence, the cheating. Minutes before Henry cheated, Anelka went down in the area. The Chelsea striker having lost the run of the ball took a dive, leaving his left leg trailing in the vain hope that it would make contact with Irish keeper Shay Given.But Given, an experienced net minder, knew that Anelka had over run the ball and didn’t fully commit himself to the challenge because he knew that Anelka’s only hope of salvaging something from a lost cause was to win a spot kick. And fair play to the ref for spotting it. However, why wasn’t Anelka booked for diving? Meanwhile, there were actually FOUR offences in the lead up to the illegal goal. Two French attackers strayed offside when the free kick was played in and Henry handled the ball twice. How can a linesman not spot two players offside from a dead ball situation when a defence is holding a strict line directly across his line of vision? And how can the ref and the linesman not spot two deliberate handballs? Meanwhile, as correctly pointed out by Bock, France will travel to South Africa without honour. Maybe they should heed to words of one of their most famous adopted sons, Albert Camus, who won a Nobel prize for Literature. Camus, who played in goals for Algeria said: “All that I know surely about morality and the obligations of man, I owe to football.” Finally, Henry went some way toward redeeming himself yesterday when he said that Ireland deserved a replay. However, FIFA will never grant thisbecause it would create a precedent that could see every game replayed if a ref makes a mistake. However, French football chiefs could agree to a replayand FIFA would be off the hook because this would be a “gentleman’s” agreement between two nations. .However, there are few gentlemen within the French Football Federation it seems. FFF will basically ride out this storm. The will ignore the wishes of their captain and the wishes of the vast majority of French football fans,who are ashamed of the way their nation has qualified.They, as Bock pointed out, are perpared to travel to South Africa with dishonour.

Fair play to you Juan, well said Senor. Er, what are you saying? We’re mostly gringo’s in here. But whatever your saying it looks good. It also feels good looking at it knowing that it looks good. Conrara and entonces and tramposs, those are great fucking words. You just have to be reading the Frogs. Fair play to you. Your one of our own amigo.

From Mexico. Henry eres un tramposo, pero puedo decirte que el fútbol te lo cobrará y entonces te darás cuenta de la magnitud de tu error y de la oportunidad que dejate ir para dejar huella en el fútbol.

I agree completely with you about the state of modern football. FIFA disgust me.

However, saying stuff like;
” He knows that no matter what happens, France will be brought into the World Cup. If he should happen to gently nudge the ball with his hand, no referee will notice, and if Ireland should manage to equalise, the referee will somehow contrive a penalty for France before the final whistle.

He knows this because he has been told it before the game kicked off. Thierry Henry knew his team would be going to South Africa before they played one second of the first leg in Dublin.” is ridiculous.

I’d like to see the facts that show the result of the tie was a foregone conclusion.
