Mourinho does a Tyson!!

I can't see any difference from what Mourinho did last night compared to what Nathan Tyson did against Derby.

The only difference was the pundits gave him credit and said he had a right to do it.

One rule for the Elite and one rule for the rest of us I guess.

Mourinho didn't wave a red flag though.

We all know animals charge at red flags...

The difference being that a mass brawl didn't start up afterwards. When Tyson waved the flag, it ended in a fight so the media needed a scapegoat. And Tyson was exactly that.

Well it shows that even cheats like Barca can show some class when they are beaten.

Well maybe all but Victor Valdes.

I did Mourinho grab a flag out of the growd and run in front of the Barcelona fans? If so, I missed that.

Tyson didn't do that either though did he.

Oh come off it, he blatantly waved the flag in front of the opposing supporters. He would have got away with it had their players not attacked him, but that's besides the point.

Mourinho never took his gaze away from the Inter section, never waved any silly flags or anything and stayed within his rights. The man is a genius at playing these games.

What he did was the same as Robbie Savage with the scarf, he saluted his own fans and no one else. Barca fans weren't supposed to like it, and neither did we, but that's besides the point.

I think the lesson we've learned here is simple. If you're the away team you may approach the away section, as your intentions are clear. If you're the home team you should avoid the away section, as you've got the whole rest of the ground to run to and it will always appear that you are trying to wind those people up. Case closed, your honour.

Tyson didn't salute the Derby fans.

He didn't even wave the flag, he just held it aloft, whilst looking at the Forest fans.

All those are minor details, the intentions are clearly the same, they all knew what they were doing!

Mourinho's little salute was actually to the Inter fans, who are situated fecking high up in the Nou Camp. Think of where the away fans are sat at Newcastle and then go a bit higher!

Of course he didn't.





He collected the flag from a ball boy. My mistake.
