McLaren Spy Row

This whole spy things has been really bad!! I’m a avid McLaren fan and when the team you support is involved in a controversy…it’s ugly! Worst when they are doing soo well this year! I didn’t deep dive into the whole episode but from what i understand, on of the McLaren engineers who had a contact at the Ferrari camp leaked out some important information of Ferrari’s race team,car,owners underwear color to the McLaren engineer.There was a tip off and these documents were found at the home of this Mclaren engineer(sounds like a movie plot isn’t it!)

It reached FIA and McLaren are in some real hot soup.The worst thing happened yesterday, they were docked all the points they gathered off constructors and effectively putting them out of the running for the constructors championship and fined 100Million!!

The light at the end of the tunnel is that the drivers points are not effect(yet) which give both drivers (who are currently lead the drivers championship) a chance in salvaging a real disappointing season!

Like me lots of racing supporters are shocked with this whole debacle! Some former drivers have express their shock and claim that McLaren are a very straight team and this drama is very un-like the teams practice and feel there is more to the story.

I’m sure that the people at McLaren will be appealing the whole charge with the FIA and if that doesn’t work,a appeal will be filled at higher courts!

Hopefully this doesn’t spoil what ever’s left of the current season on the other hand hopefully brings the team together in blowing the championship away…….next season!

Champions of England

It was another fruitful night for Liverpool in the BPL and another victory toke them to 4th place in the league playing one game less as compared to many other teams. Yea yea..i know its early in the season and anything can happen BUT i have to point this out..How many times have you seen this happening??? The champions of England sitting pretty on 19th place!! I dont think many united fans be too happy about the fact that they are in that position! Tonight United do battle with Spurs who themselves have got a point to prove this season.Its a mouth watering clash,as some of my united fans may say…Every point is important and if you draw or loose too many games,you can virtually forget your chances in the league..

I agree with them:)

Robbed by Mr Styles

We are in week 2 of the BPL(notice that they dont call it the EPL anymore,its now Barclays Premier League) and already there is a big game. Last night featured two mouth watering prospects…ManCity v ManUtd and Liverpool v Chelsea. I watched both games last nite and i must say..Man Utd looks like a real poor side without Rooney and Ronaldo in the team.They were good moving foward but as soon as they reached Man city’s penalty box, they were sad!! Anyway…im sure Sven and Frank(That’s what the City fans call Thaksin, as in Frank Sinatra :) ) enjoyed the win, my take on it…City better enjoy what they been getting so far, i think its a matter of time before they are brought back to ground level .

The game i was really waiting for was Liverpool v Chelsea. Both teams came out with strong teams and i was glad to see John Terry back in the squad(you dont wanna beat a undestrength Chelsea, you’ll never hear the end of it..trust me,i know) Liverpool came out blazing at Chelsea..Torres marked his anfield debut with a superb finish from a real akward angle..Pure Class…He has already marked his home debut with a goal! i would say…its a sneak preview to great things to come!!

The whole team played well together particularly the Torres-Kuyt partnership was awesome..they both looked like they have been playing together for years!!

Then came the controversial moment..Malouda jumped into Agger without possesion with the ball and the ref (Rob Styles) gave away a penalty! I felt it was a pure rip off!

Anyway…i suppose its a game and anything can happen in a game! Rob Styles was poor,have a look at his record this season

he’s been involveed in 2 games and showed 11 yellow cards!! I think that is crazy! Have a look at his face, the next time you see him referring a game, there are gonna be lotsa cards! It was frustrating but i its a great start for Liverpool and im enjoying what i see so far ..a great all round performance!
