You know what I'm talking about dont ya?

Well, if ya dont...I'm talking about Thierry Henry, and his reaction after the game against Newcastle today.

The guy is great fooballer, even as a Man Utd Supporter myself I can't help but be amazed by his dazzling displays. His blistering pace and eye for goal are always a good reason to watch Arsenal play.

Taking allthings into account, Arsenal were hard by tonight. MR. Poll made a few errors of judgement today, and it really lost the match for the Arsenal. But the guy is only only Human, we moan every year about bad refs but nowadays its a normal part of the game! It doesnt help with the FA/FIFA/UEFA or whoever changing the rules every year.

But anyway, back to the point...Henry acted stupidly after the game, and action should be taken against him. I know he was upset, but this isnt the first time he has reacted like this. In the Champions league this year he felt the need to do the same sort of thing. The F.A should take the fact Henry had good reasons to be upset into account but he should be punished. Who knows what Henry would have done if it wasnt for Shearer restraining him. Actually, Shearer should be acknoledged for his model behavior today. Particulary when Parlour was sent off, the guy showed how football should be played. Unlike Henry, who waved an Imaginery Card at the ref when he was fouled.

Well, anyway..this was pritty unbiased for me. So now i'll go mad! yeah! What a result! You stupid gunners! Flippin Henry, thinkin he's all big and bad! hope they lock you up and throw away the key! flippin nutter.

Newcastle top of the league? Funny season eh?

Not at all bitter about the result, but fuming about the way it came about.

There was only ever going to be one winner of that match, until the Graham Poll decided that he wanted to be the star of the show.

Neither of the red cards were valid, and the penalty should never have been.

Immediately after the challenge that saw Parlour dismissed, there was an identical challenge on an Arsenal player... not a bookable offence, but a free kick - and nothing was given.

All credit to Shearer who tried to tell the ref that it wasn't a foul, and all credit to Newcastle for getting back into the game - but I can't help thinking that it wouldn't have happened but for the Poll's assistance.

I think Henry was rightly livid after the final whistle... and as he's likely to get a suspension anyway, it may even have been worth smacking the referee just for the sake of satisfying himself and 38,000 onlookers. I know I would have - he's not even fit for non-league, let alone the Prem.

The result won't change, but I hope there's some kind of investigation, as the ref was blatantly up to something last night.

I have to agree, Henry is a great player and all but his reaction was un called for. What was he hoping to gain apart from being acknowleged and showing he thought the ref was poor. What he said was not going to change anything and at best can only get him into trouble for it. This maybe a case of the players again thinking they are above all the rest, which really needs clamping down on.

As for Shearer, again he showed what a proffesional he was, he often is know for keeping his cool in situations like that, like when Henry went after the ref he stopped, or tried to stop henry in his tracks. He also did this in the game, and even told the ref Palour should not have been sent off.

Anyway, well done Newcastle!
