Classic Signings - Rafael Van Der Vaart

[Bullet]

Is this the guy that beat up his wife and pushed her in a bush, or was that Gazza, I forget which did what?

 

[paxtonwolf]

One of the great signings. Along with Klinsmann, can still remember where I was when I first heard the news.

Crouchie knock down and VDV shoots. Wish we had something like that these days

Wonder what Bentancur made of this comment…

Never miss that opportunity, Tommy.

Never miss that opportunity, Tommy.

What opportunity champ?

 

[Penwith Pete]

What opportunity champ?

The opportunity to be a judgemental plank without any additional contribution.

Cheers Pete. Will try to make sure my contributions meet your standards going forward.

Thank you, that's much appreciated.

 

[tommysvr]

Thank you, that's much appreciated.

Just so we’re clear, you too think all Asians look the same?

 

[Lemonade Money]

Don't let him patronise you Pete.

What a silly assumption to make. Just so we're clear, I think you're a one-dimensional tool. I suspect I could reel off every ill-informed belief that you hold. Widen your horizons and try to show a bit of humanity occasionally.

 

[Baleforce]

I’m with Tommy here, vdv said something racist, no excuses, he’s a clam.

 

[Penwith Pete]

Obviously, what vdv said was wrong and I agree with Tommy that it was idiotic. I just get tired of the vitriol, it adds nothing positive to the conversation and Tommy does that on a very regular basis.

 

[Baleforce]

Sometimes, there isn’t anything positive in a situation.

Well done Pete

Widen your horizons and try to show a bit of humanity occasionally.

Not sure how much wider my horizons could be living in Japan, self-teaching myself to Japanese fluency. Oh and I moved here in part because after experience the earthquake and tsunami in 2011, I came back to volunteer for a couple of weeks and helped raise $25,000 for a school to educate kids who lost their parents that day.

But I’m the ill-informed one who lacks humanity because of a few posts on a football message board. Keep it up mate.
