John Terry today went out of his way to show the world his lack of remorse following his affair with Wayne Bridges girlfriend. He scored in the FA cup corner final (with what I must admit was a beautifully headed goal from Malouda's corner) and the turn away, and liften his sleeve in an attempt to expose his captains armband - a clear reference to the fact that he is no longer England captain.
There are a number of ways in which you can read into this - all of these suggest that he is a prick. Perhaps he is telling Capello that he was wrong to remove his captaincy, but is it wise to keep stirring up trouble so close to the world cup? And even so this must mean that he doesn't respect his managers decision or realise what he has done wrong. Perhaps its a gesture to Wayne Bridge after he humiliated him last week by refusing to shake his hand, but surely it is time for Terry to admit that he has betrayed his friend. Another possibility is that Terry is laughing at the whole ordeal. Yes, it often is a good idea to look at the funny side, but Terry's actions and the way he has jeopardised England's world cup hopes by slashing down their team spirit really shouldn't amuse him so much. The boy needs to grow up, stop fannying around and just play football.
He proved his lack of sorry by refusing to apologise in an odd situation. A journalist asked him to sign an autograph "To Wayne, I'm Sorry. John Terry". He refused even a joke apology
To sum up, John Terry is being a total twat.
"Is it wise to keep stirring up trouble" - this is the first time he's done or said anything to antagonise the situation. I'm not saying it was right but he's not keeping on anything. He's not known for commenting on events outside of football and has never done anything to provoke a situation before. The man has just lost his boyhood dream over something that most footballers do anyway. cheat.
ReplyDeleteWayne Bridge is the guy making all the public moves to ensure he stays on the front page, everyone else on the england team seems to want to move on. This is terry's first discrepancy, apart from the obvious so give him a break. This is unusual for him to say the least and it wasn't called for but not worth making a song and dance about.
