Redknapp was not impressed by the way that Real defender Pepe immediately pleaded with referee Felix Brych to send the striker off after the second foul, and with the play-acting which he feels followed both tackles.

"They made a meal of it. They made sure they got him sent off,'' Redknapp told talkSPORT. "When it happened they were all after the referee and overacting and the player was rolling around.''

OKay, I disagree, unfortunately those were yellow cards, regardless of what the players on the field were doing. Usually I hate the way Spanish teams conduct themselves on the pitch, but in this case I dont think it really mattered. He went into two tackles with his studs up.

Sunderland chairman Niall Quinn has revealed the club is being sued by a fan struck by a wayward Djibril Cisse shot.

A fan was knocked unconscious by a shot while watching a training session and has begun the process of legal action against the club.

"I'm making fun of it now, but it knocked a supporter out. It was quite serious. That supporter is in the process of suing us right now. It was one of those things."

What a freaking pansy. It was in training! Holy crap, I cant believe he even admitted to being knocked out let alone is now sueing them. They'll just stop letting people into training, which they should.
