no one should get away with diving though.. Rooney, Cole, Viera and Diouf should all get bans for diving.. unless they get punished it will keep happening

Very true, but you can't bring that in during the season. If its to be a new initivate by the FA ( and I hope they will consider it) then it needs to be brought in at the start of a season, not 3/4 of the way through.

The point I was making was that Rooney dived and got away with it so its hardly biased FA.

Re: [Merged] Football talk

ok fair point they both have and so have a number of other clubs as well..

would be nice if the FA, UEFA and FIFA did bring this sort of thing in.. trouble is as long as money is coming in these organisations don't seem to care

Sorry mate, it was your post about hoping United would go down to nine men and score two more as Sky Sports Andy Gray made that exact comment.

Great minds must think alike then because I never heard him say it.

What really peeved me last night was Ian Darke's persistant comments about what happened in the tunnel prior to the game, also hoping more similar stuff would happen on the pitch, which it almost did.

The media are pathetic at times.

It is only a game of football after all.

had to post this:

Quote:

Nightclub bouncer Andy Wain, 39, raised the red card in his own direction after losing his cool with a player.

He stunned the crowd and marched off towards the changing rooms with his head bowed following a row with goalkeeper Richard McGaffin.

Later, Mr Wain said: "I squared up to the goalkeeper and it was totally unprofessional. I was responsible for his reaction.

"I would like to carry on refereeing, but I have told the league secretary I want some time out of the game."

in all fairness he should not have been out there.
