Stevosevic Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Not to sure whether to believe this http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,1...1925755,00.html Liverpool silent on bust-up claims Liverpool are refusing to comment on reports that Craig Bellamy is alleged to have beaten up Reds team-mate John Arne Riise with a golf club. Riise's agent Jan Kvalheim says he has spoken to the player about the Sunday newspaper allegations that is alleged to have occured during a club break in Portugal. The News of the World reports allegations that Wales striker Bellamy clashed with Riise following a dispute during a night out in the Algarve resort of Vale do Lobo. Kvalheim told Norwegian newspapers VG and Aften Posten that he has spoken to Riise and Liverpool but will be leaving any comment on the allegations to Liverpool. The assault is reported to have occurred on Friday night in Portugal where the Liverpool team squad were training ahead of next week's Champions League tie with Barcelona. According to reports, the 'vicious punch-up' broke out at a karoke bar. The newspaper quotes an 'inside source' saying: "There had been a lot of drinking and everyone was enjoying themselves. But it all went wrong when Craig tried to drag John up for a song. There was a karaoke competition going on, but John's a quiet one off the pitch and wasn't having it at all. "It started off as a bit of a lark with some of the other lads having a go but then it got completely out of hand. John went ballistic because Craig wouldn't take no for an answer. He was screaming at Craig to leave him alone, saying he wouldn't do it and yelling insults. "Everyone was completely stunned by it because they were really having a go, standing there toe to toe swearing at each other. There were about 20 players in the bar including all the senior guys, like Steven Gerrard, Peter Crouch and Dirk Kuyt. "They were warned to keep a lid on it and it appeared to calm down. "It was really late, about 2am, and the players eventually started drifting off to bed. But Craig, who was sharing with Steve Finnan, was so wound up he couldn't sleep. "He suddenly grabbed a golf club and went looking for John. And when he found him he waded in, hacking at his legs with the club. "All hell was let loose and John suffered a lot of bruising. Craig was out of control and shouting that John had belittled him in front of the lads." Meanwhile, The People and the Mail on Sunday report that a number of other Liverpool players were involved in a separate 'boozy row'. 'And among those who could face disciplinary action for the fracas in Portugal are Robbie Fowler, Jermaine Pennant and Jerzy Dudek,' states the latter publication. Reports in Portugal claim that at least one Reds player was handcuffed for 'attempting to headbutt a policeman'.
Tommeh Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Is this really the sort of thing people would make up? could only be Bellemy really couldn't it?
lcfc_jme Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Bellamy. What a nob. Whether this is true or not. Sounds like it'd be fun to go on a night out and see the Liverpool squad though. Especially if you're an Everton or Man Yoo fan! :laugh:
dandannieldanok Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Bellamy has been trouble and a liability in squad relations wherever he has been. It doesn't matter whether this is totally made up it is unsurprisingly that there are problems concerning Bellamy and other people.
Joe. Posted 18 February 2007 Posted 18 February 2007 Could easily be true. We all know what Bellamy's like and I think I remember Riise scrapping with John Carew on international duty one time?
lildave3 Posted 19 February 2007 Posted 19 February 2007 Too funny to be true surely? It is Bellamy but it seems out of character that Riise would do such a thing.
The People's Hero Posted 19 February 2007 Posted 19 February 2007 Surely only Leicester get up to this sort of thing?
Suffolk_fox Posted 19 February 2007 Posted 19 February 2007 Bellamy + Alcohol = Instant arsehole. A magical formula that works everytime.
Finnegan Posted 19 February 2007 Posted 19 February 2007 Sigh. Craig. but it seems out of character that Riise would do such a thing. Why? Because he's ginger and baby faced? What do you know about Riise's character? When was the last time you were out on the piss with ol' John Arne? Football fans do say the stupidest things at times.
