It has nothing to do with Gattuso being Italian, it is because the guy is just a crazy #######.

Come the #### on. Italian football is notorious for its lack of sportsmanship.

I love Gattuso, dirtbag style and all. Makes every game entertaining. I also started watching soccer largely due to Roy Keane, so that says somethign about my tastes.

Not completely disagreeing, every league and country has a lack of sportsmanship in soccer nowadays.
Just stating that the bigger reason for Gattuso's actions are because the guy is actually insane. I actually think something is mentally wrong with the guy.

Could be. I think Spurs tear Milan apart in the return leg at WHL. Should have a healthy Bale, Modric, and Huddlestone.

In other news, I thought Dawson was great today. Made up for Gallas' surprisingly below-average performance.

I agree, especially since Italian teams never seem to travel to England well. I predicted from before that the Spurs midfield would tear apart a slower and older Milan midfield.
Really it depends on tactics from Milan though, it seems like they looked much better after Pato came on and they switched to more of the 4-3-3 that they have been using this season. Although it was that switch that made them more vulnerable to the break from Lennon.

I'm furious about the Corluka injury. I just saw the replay. How on earth is that not a red card?!?

The officiating in this one was atrocious. The French ref shares a lot of the blame for why things got out of hand, IMO.

supposedly Flamini went in to apologize, doesn't make it better but good on him for doing so
might have to call Kyle Walker back from his loan at Villa, Corluka's injury looks bad, Hutton is still out, and I don't know when Kaboul is back

If I'm not mistaken you can't recall full season loanees.

Does anyone know who TSN picks up the broadcast from?
The guy's were obviously british but I'm curious if they are supposed to be biased. Just wondering if it is a SN situation where they are pandering to their audience or a CBC situation where they have no class.
I only say this because they were full on cheering when Spurs scored. I'm not terribly offended or anything, I'm not exactly a hardcore soccer fan. Just curious.
Plus I'm an Inter fan. #### AC.

I'm pretty sure it's more of a SN thing. I think they get their feed from either Sky or BBC.

it was Sky
in European games they are pro English all the time, if its a Setanta feed they usually pick up the UEFA English (the language not the country) which shows no bias

The Yids weren't on the tele tonight, Man City was. They were on SKY.
Bias in the British media is sickening. By far the worst are British boxing commentators, followed by tennis. I usually don't find football to be that bad, but it is usually imbued with some bias. Rugby probably has the least amount of commentary bias.
