It'll be something the press will manage to avoid. Only dirty foreigners dive.

STAY ON YOUR FUCKING FEET DANNY.
Yeah, I don't remember DC posting for ages, he just avoided it.
Blowing our own trumpet here, but fair play lads for coming out and chastising the prick on our side.
Bags it as an avatar.

Yep
The fact that you said you're a referee just shows how fucked up referees are. I don't like Suarez at all, I hate the cunt, but he clearly isn't the only (and certainly not the first) foreign player to dive. The English do it just as much.
I'd never want someone like you to be refereeing a Newcastle game, I wouldn't even want you refereeing a sunday under 10s game.

He had the intelligence to turn it into a joke and make his celebration.
So going by that sweeping definition, you'd argue that almost every single league or cup winner has cheated their way to their victories in the past?
choc you dont understand this topic you are supposed to get angry back at him and have a crap argument for 3 pages

To some extent of course.

I'm still buzzin' as well! It'll last for a week :p
so this is what i posted yes i made a troll suarez post by itself, but then i backed it up elsewhere
Suarez isnt the ONLY player who does it
and Englishmen do it.
honestly FIFA need to give us the power to send divers off. If you call another player a cheat, you are sent off, under the LOTG. yet if you are caught cheating, you are permitted to stay on the field
Red card Diving would eradicate it quick smar

Heskey has scored more goals than both players combined.
God knows there are hundreds of mixed race Dwight Yorkes walking the earth.

We need sin bins rather than yellow cards rather than more reds.

Were trying to pass it in to many times never taking a crack from 20/25 yards out.
Dzeko V Sunderland?
I dont like to see any players go down softly. But what we've just seen and that one, the level of contact was chalk and cheese. And that says a lot.

Over playing it now.
Can you explain why you think this is a good thing? Or at least why it would be damaging for this not to be the case?
Yeah just what I was thinking, one pass too many.

Woah calm down
i said more than suarez dives in a later post. I also said FIFA need to grow up and give red card ability for diving. It will eradicate it.
Yeah that I agree with, and it's really nothing personal. I just remember yesteday you were talking about how you would have sent Suarez off (I can't believe i'm defending Suarez), you clearly have some bias against him. Which is fine, but as a ref I don't think it is fine. Decisions should be made on an incident-by-incident basis and how it relates to the rules of the game.
Heskey has been playing for 10 times their careers combined.
its not enough. The only way to eridicate diving is to award the ultimate punishment.
Think of it like this, if you deny a clear goal scoring opportunity you must be sent off.
On the flip side if you 'cheat' your way to a goal, or try to, you stay on the field.
hmmmm
edit: if i was refereeing suarez i would be professoinal enough to put my dislike of the player aside. However he DID two cautionable things in my view yesterday
went on and on and on after a decision. Yellow card for dissent. And dived. Yellow card for diving. Woulda been off.
Not necessarily saying i would have looked for it , and i would have sent any other player pulling that shit off as well

It's not even true. The regulations for pitches, markings, balls, kit, officials are not held up at the park level.
Didn't stop Messi.

Alright, the half's over, the self-flagellation can stop now chaps.
QPR are fucking woeful and are getting about as much possession as they had when they had 11 men.

Both Welbeck and Hernandez could end up being average in their careers.
Actually, they're not even amazing right now. If they don't improve they really will just be average players with a legendary manager.
Okay, who's trolling who
Yeah I was thinking that but I was ignoring that part because I'm struggling to understand why even the general idea is a "beautiful" thing.

@FourFourTom: There's a lot of talk of conspiracy theories at Old Trafford today. I can confirm Michael Jackson IS dead - that's Antonio Valencia.
Hahahahaha.
Hahahahaha.
So about FIFA 12. Was playing H2H against a pretty good Chelsea. Leading 1-0 at 70 mins. Got disconnected from EA server. Game was abandoned. Checked my internet connection, everything seems fine. Logged on to EA server again within seconds and saw that the game was recorded as a loss for me. Thanks, EA!
