Embarrassing isn't it?

World football has got to come down on these players hard. Give the cnuts a 10 game suspension. Might seem harsh but it would certainly stop them from doing it again.

Fantastic dive that one!

Wasn't it Haim that collapsed in a heap to get Rooney sent off a few seasons ago when Bolton came to OT???

What comes around, goes around.

I wasn't having a go at your team mate. Just diving in general. Needs to be completely eradicated from the game.

Question here...

Has a major final (World Cup, CL Final etc) ever been decided by a player diving and conning the ref?

Off the top of my head I don't remember any. Then again, the marijuana has effected my brain and memory badly

It was a shit dive again , no style
at least Sir Francis of Lee gave you good value when he went over , he tried to at least keep his dignity when he cheated!
Do you think he'll look back on his ridiculous fall over with any sort of pride?

[ONEDUNME]

Franny was THE best, without a doubt

No not really , i think the players now dont consider it cheating to be honest , its all part of the game
Lets be honest every team has a few good divers , tell me they dont practice it and i`ll call you a liar

There you go !!
Cheers Kop for the evidence ...

It's all part of the game, it's just a case of who does it the best.

Francis Lee won a Championship with his dives for penalties didnt he?
I just had to go find the Norman Hunter clip as he's been mentioned, look at the way he gets those wee arms going to get some punches off

Derby v Leeds Nov. 1975

Edit
Oh well, i'm sure you remember it anyway

Steve Gerrard is a accomplished diver won liverpool 3pts against Villa earlier in the season and who can forget his brilliant effort against Sheff Utd last season , even left Warnock speachless.

He didn't even go to ground there so how could it be called a dive

I'll give you the one at Sheff Utd, hardly makes him an accomplished diver though does it.

I think he's quite a good diver myself kopp, instead of appearing to be grabbed by the hair and dragged back screaming he has mastered the 'stumble' technique where your arms goto ground to protect your fall. It works best when the ref is blindsided by the innocent foulee.

[Kop66]

Gerrard's crafty, he's no accomplished diver, he's a stumbler as you say Keem

Well I certainly do mate Class.

I still prefer the look on Billy Bremner's face when Dave Mckay picked the little cunt up by his shirt

Hard men? I've shit em
