It's good to see what a brouaha has built up around Thierry Henry's cheat, even though I hope that it is clear that I have no sympathies with the chorus of the cult of fair play, which typically advances the pathetic and censorious "role models for children" argument of vile right-wingers and do-gooders. As my previous post should have made clear, this is 100% about defending the Irish (on the strength of their 210 minutes performance) who deserved to go through while at the same time having a very enjoyable dig at Thierry Henry and the FFF.Which hence allows plenty of space for the enjoyment of other points of view, such as this delightfully entertaining and refreshing (as well as supremely venomous) expulsion by one of Ireland's most expressive players, the belligerent Roy Keane. You got to love it.
