    I doubt Adidas would say something like this

    Wenger also keen on a replay:

    Henry admitted on Friday that a replay would be “the fairest solution” and his old boss agreed when the question was posed at Wenger’s pre-match press conference.

    “I feel so, yes,” said the Frenchman.

    “I don’t know [if it is likely], it’s not my problem, I can only give you my feeling. We want to beat Ireland properly and that didn’t happen. It’s as simple as that. At the end of the day you can talk and talk and talk, or you make a decision to replay or not replay.

    Hopefully he'll get some sort of a ban, I reckon Robbie Keane might get a sanction as well for his conspiracy comments.

    That ban was lifted upon appeal. I know he dived, he knows he dived but they couldn't prove beyond reasonable doubt that he did and there was the slightest contact so the ban was lifted.

    Henry on the other hand (intended) can't justify dribbling the ball to gallas, and therefore should be sanctioned some how, hopefully with a ban rather than a financial sanction that would only be a nominal fee anyway to a well paid footballer.

    At the end of the day it's probably the FIFA accountants who will decide if there is a replay.

    More revenue from France being at the world cup than Ireland, more TV money, more jerseys sold etc etc.

    I still don't know why Trap didn't take the players off the field straight after the French goal, he would have been fully justified on the grounds he didn't want a part of the farce.

    I think it was more to do with the case that Arsenal were building, they had hours of footage of similar situations and it would have made a mockery of the Eduardo ban if they were not going to ban every player that had taken a dive.

    Ah isn't Henry such a nice guy. Waiting for FIFA to make their statement that a replay won't happen and then he comes out saying it is only fair there is a replay. If he feels so stongly about it why doesn't he refuse to play for france againg until they write to FIFA asking for a replay? And as for Wenger wanting a replay, sure he has to say that or feel the wrath of Brady

    Henry wont be charged. Not a hope.
    He admitted he handballed it but said it wasnt intentional.
    Like the Eduardo case it has to be proven that Henry intentionally used his hand, and that is downright impossible.

    Cantona is a moron. That interview a few months back in fourfourtwo made it obvious to anyone who didnt know. I would feel better if he wasnt on our side.

    He's like Roy Keane, he just talks.

    Both of them said what they said to be different. If the situation were reversed they would switch opinions. Like politicians is all im saying. Meaningless words.

    Exactly, it was an insult to fans that he expected us to buy into that performance, the fact that he waited until FIFA announced that a replay was impossible before saying the match should be replayed further demonstrated that he is only trying to protect his public image, for me he is more despicable than out in the open cheats like Ronaldo.

    Agree with you about Henry but in fairness to Wenger he did offer a replay to Sheffield United about 10 years ago in a similar situation.

    Henry would have been better off continuing to celebrate then his fake consoling of Dunne. If Dunne hadn't had his dream shattered he may well of wanted to stick the head in Zidane style after listening to henry's "guilt'

    Time to think of the Euro's now and tweak the team just slightly. no one will want us to be the third seeds in their group.
