John Terry Good Or Bad For England's Euro 2012 Campaign? - originally posted on
Soccerlens.com
The extraordinary delays in a resolution to the Terry-Ferdinand affair have already resulted in
the wholly unnecessary cop-out by the FA and the Premier League in asking Chelsea and QPR to forego
handshakes in their recent league clash.
Luis Suarez, fresh from a disciplinary hearing at the FA where he was found guilty of racism and
given an eight match suspension, has now been disciplined with another suspension. This time it is
for only one match and supposing that there is no immediate appeal it will be served in Liverpool's
next match, at Anfield against Newcastle United.

Daily Mirror columnist David Maddock wrote an interesting article about
Chelsea's Fernando Torres during the week.
He explored the depths to which the once all-conquering Spanish and ex- Liverpool forward has
sunken to the depths of warming the bench for his present club when he could be scoring goals for
fun at his old club Liverpool.
Joga Bonito A video showing Brazilian star Ronaldinho, erm, working on his solo skills has been
leaked. The footage of the ex-Barcelona star and his laptop enjoying some alone time in the
bathroom were posted on YouTube and, although the original video has since been removed, has now
spread around the internet.
After a few weeks off due to international breaks and facing sides nobody really cares
about—or ones we simply find too distasteful to bother talking to—Tea and Crumpets decided it
was about time to shake off the rust, so we headed out for a bite and a chat with Graham MacAree of
We Ain't Got No History, one of the more approachable Chelsea sorts out there and also our
boss.
The Euro 2012 play-offs are over and we now know all 16 teams who will be competing in Poland
and Ukraine next summer. Barring any injury issues, there will definitely be some Villa interest as
the Irish saw out their considerable advantage from the first leg against Estonia to book their
place in the finals with a 1-1 draw in Dublin.
Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has vehemently criticised Chelsea and their 'cocky' manager
Andre Villas-Boas for for 'failing to take racism seriously' , and for claiming that the John
Terry-Anton Ferdinand situation had been 'blown out of proportion'.
Collymore, scathed:
"You can now add Chelsea to the list of top clubs who fail to take racism seriously.

John Terry has outdone himself, even by his own pathetically low standards. We have a saying in
America: three strikes and you're out. Well, John Terry first shagged teammate Wayne Bridge's
significant other a few years ago. Strike one. This past weekend, he allegedly uttered a racist
comment at Anton Ferdinand.
The difficulties that Carlos Tevez and former Newcastle center-back Titus Bramble have got
themselves into this week, have focused attention on today's modern footballer. Alan Pardew
looking up on Tyneside But it seems that Alan Pardew knows all about footballer's indiscretions,
and he seems to have dealt with quite a few during his time as a manager, and we all know
Alan is doing his very best to [.
Morning all, with a season defining week starting for Arsenal, there are a couple of pretty
noteworthy things to report on today.
The most noteworthy- and most ludicrous- is the news that Arsene Wenger has been handed a two
match ban by UEFA for his supposed indiscretions last Tuesday during our home win against Udinese
in the CL Play-offs.
The next edition of an important English dictionary looks set, at this rate, to use an action
shot of this year's Under-20s World Cup to illustrate its definition of ‘curate's egg.' The
tournament has had its moments so far, and has got noticeably better as I've been typing. But for
every Colombia/France, there's been one.
An MP in our fine and morally superior House of Commons this week revealed it's Ryan Giggs at
the centre of the Twitter saga.
Well, I was shocked, I had no idea it was him. I'd like to thank this MP for guiding me. The
public service he demonstrated was what this country has been lacking.
There is a Scottish newspaper which has had a difficult time of it of late, with its circulation
having fallen by over one-fifth year on year between February 2010 and February 2011. This may or
may not be behind the decision to print a barely censored so barely that they may as well not have
bothered picture of the Premier League footballer believed to be at the centre of the
superinjunction concerning the reality television "star" Imogen Thomas.
The Beckhams are having a girl. Iker Casillas is giving unruly bedhead a run for its money. Jack
Rodwell's mobile should be searching for sanitiser. This weekend's gossip lacked clear direction,
but made amends with Olaya Villa's first steps forward.

The lads head to Craven Cottage for a derby that, clearly, falls under the 'must-win' category
