KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Ban Cleverly Kick Starter

Apparently there are already 7,000 signatures on this petition to keep him out of the WC squad. I find it quite hilarious.

I find it disgraceful.

Dont rate him as a footballer put people should keep their opinions to the pub or forums, rather than signing on online petition which is at best undermining a the England team (whether he goes or not) and at worst is a form of online bullying.

I'm not sure I could call it bullying. If people think he's a bad footballer (and he is), and they want England to win, surely it's in their rights to make their case? It has nothing to do with who he is as a person, but his abilities as a professional. If he can't take that sort of criticism, he's in the wrong profession.

Disgraceful? Hahaha

What's the difference between this and hurling abuse at him or any other footballer from the terraces?

It's not bullying at all.

Totally agree
I dont rate the guy either but this sort of thing is pathetic

Ok, is our society so wimpy that this is really considered bullying?

Shouldn't they be doing a petition on Hodgson rather, I mean the player is hardly selecting himself?

Completely agree

Cleverley being selected proves that it does matter who you play for, if he was at Fulham or Palace for example, which are his level, he'd be no where near the national team.

He must stay in the side, so that England could have a better chance of the expected early exit materializing. The petition is pathetic though. Next thing, team selection will be determined by a national poll.

cleverly wouldn't get a game for palace. utd shirt is only reason he is in the squad.
