Whereas Van Peries ran off the pitch to celebrate? So shouldn't he have recieved a yellow card for that celebration?

He celebrated normally and swore at the same time, I don't see anywhere where it says a player can't swear. He was releasing some anger as it was the equiliser after all.

And of course Arsenal fans kicked off when he ran the pitch to take the piss out of the fans, which no footballer should do.

Saying that, I need to re-watch his celebration to really say for sure what he did but if he did say, '**** off', then that's said quite often when footballers score important goals :P

erm, clearly you've never heard of standards.
You don't get footballers on 70 - 100k a week swearing at the oppositions fans.
Theres certain rules that are expected to be followed and swearing at the fans isn't one of them. Don't tell me there isn't a rule, because aggrevating fans isn't definately not going to be allowed. Don't try and justify it because you support the *****.

Swearing at the fan's isn't the best thing to do, no, but it's done all the time in modern football, most the times the players don't mean it but they do it to release frustration. And don't tell me what, and what not to do :)

lBlue, *REMOVED* You know quite well that Ade meant to cause harm to Van Persie. He purposely brings his foot down quite fast to catch his head. It's a blatant stomp. If you so choose to say otherwise then *REMOVED*

Apart from Man City fans pushing open the gate and getting onto that part and going for an Arsenal fan who'd been arrested.

Good post, aggrevating the opposing teams fans isn't big nor clever. I can take it when the player is given stick from the fans but this was an unprovoked action from Van Persie.

It shouldn't be done though when it's unprovoked. Yes we can have a laugh, City fans and John O'shea have a fabulous relationship, it's a laugh. This was unprovoked and was intent on getting a reaction from us.

Not very nice Excellent2, not very nice at all. I'd advice you to leave your confrontational approach in the football stands however in your case it's more "the living room couch".

Nobody knows whether or not Adebayor meant it. Van Persie, Song and Bendter were going in hard and dirty on Adebayor all day. Song got booked for kicking Adebayor. Van Persie went in two footed and caught Adebayor unbalanced. A number of footballing pundits have defended Adebayor today.

He didn't bring his foot down, he scraped it. I'd suggest you either stop making things up to suit your post or watch the video again.

An idiot? The man whom insults is normally the man lacking intelligence dear.
