as much as im annoyed i dont blame henry. if robbie did it and we went through i wouldnt care TBH. its up to the ref and linesman. thats what their there for. its just the fact that it was so blatent and the linesman and ref bottled it for me is the killer.
Henry's comments after the Champions League Final
"They (Barcelona) are not used to the pace of the (English) Premiership and the ref -- if he didn't want us to win it just say so right from the start. Sometimes some calls in the game were a bit strange," the France striker told Sky Sports.
"Some of the referee's decisions today were horrendous. Next time I should learn how to dive maybe but I'm not a woman so I stay on my feet.
"I expect the referee to do his job but I don't think he did. Whatever happened tonight we can be more than proud."
He got roundly boo'ed coming on for Barcelona against Bilbao tonight.

Is that true??Originally Posted by The Fly
Well deserved too.
Barca fans love their football and probably hate cheats.
I have a feeling he will be booed anytime he plays for France too.
It was played in Bilbao and it was the Bilbao fans doing the booing, as is par for the course in football. You get presented with something to chant at an opposition player and you take it.
