Reina's tackle on Ediur (Can't spell his last name) was not violent. He in-fact made contact with the ball. It may have warranted for a yellow at the most but no a red card. Number 8 00:19, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

That's debatable. It was a tackle from behind, which have been outlawed, and he took Eidur's legs in a scissors action. Reina was in trouble for that regardless. SteveO 01:54, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This article referenced by The Guardian

Well, sort of:

According to Wikipedia, Arjen Robben is an accomplished scuba diver, a model-submarine enthusiast and the owner of a pet parrot named Greg Louganis - diving-related trivia that would be much more amusing if we hadn't just added them to his profile ourselves in a bid to pad out this paragraph. [1] And while this information will probably have been edited out by some anti-Fiver Chelsea-supporting conspiracy theorist by the time you get around to checking it and adding more of your own, one thing that isn't going to disappear as quickly is the stench of hypocrisy currently emanating from Stamford Bridge. [2]

(Disclaimer: I do not, nor have I ever, supported Chelsea, except when they play Man United. — sjorford++ 14:20, 6 July 2006 (UTC))

do you watch football mate reinas tackle coulda been a red on its own from behind reckless and a lundge he hit robben in the face it was a red card offence if it wasnt the fa would have ricinded the card and he didnt get it ricinded so there you go!

I suppose The Guardian were unlucky to get information from this page when it was vandalised. Though it's hard to understand how the heck this article got such heavy vandalism on 6 July last year (what the hell?), fortunately an admin decided on semiprotection at the end of that day. Anyway,I'm active now and I'm taking care of this article, whoever wants to harm the page, I'LL MAKE THEM PAY. (DAMN YOU, VANDALS) S. Miyano 16:04, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
