The problem is papers like The Sun whom lot of 'football' fans use as their main source and who will wrap Rooney and the like in the flag. To them it's almost Anti-English to say Rooney/Gerrard and co dive as well. Unfortunately these are the morons who Sky Sports bring in to talk about it on the Sunday Supplement program.

I've been listening to The Game and Football Weekly for a while now, as you say they usually have a much more balanced and sensible view, the latter podcast especially.
This is the perfect opportunity to shamelessly boast that i won tickets to a special video episode of Football Weekly in the diamond suite at Emirates Stadium a couple of weeks ago. Free beer, Emirates Stadium and meeting James Richardson; it was a glorious evening!
