Holy fuck Scholes
Maybe Mancini should spend 14 of the 15 available minutes at HT pleading Balotelli not to get sent off.
And Fergie can do the same with Scholes. Christ.
Yep, and that other Reading player called 'kebe' or something.
Suarez isn't the only player to dive, doesn't excuse it though.
Manure are the bigger evil here.
He really isn't. I say ship him to Milan or PSG and snag Jo-Jo on his buyout (or even better, get Falcao).
all of em should be kicked out. in australia in the a-league we have a system if a player gets caught diving on video after the match they are suspended for 3 matches.
we don't have divers here as a result. FIFA is to fucking gutless to mandate it worldwide

Should have been. But no, it's just "good old Scholes" that commentators and pundits laugh at.

Was never a dive...
haha, unfortunately the FFA ruled that it was a penalty. And on super slow mo foxsports the broadcaster was convinced there was contact.
on super zoom it did look light slight contact. i wouldn't have given the pen but the ref did and thats history unfortunately.
:|
but you can't disagree we don't have fuckwits diving every fucking week in our league. It just doesn't happen because of that rule.
also suarez should have got a free kick then. Guarantee ref realised he got duped the first kick and decided suarez aint getting more
thats what happens when you are a chaeting cunt, you get a reputation that makes it very hard to give you free kicks

All I remember was Choc or somebody being furious about that penalty call. I never actually watched the footage.
Recall big Andy.
Good first half, we've played really well. Sahin's got into some great positions, needs to apply the finish, and Raheem needs to be more clinical with his delivery. Other than that though there isn't much to say. Suarez dived, then got fouled and didn't win anything, two Reading players dived. Suso's been majestic. Allen similarly.

Van Persie is incredible. It's like you can figure the score at 1-0 when he starts, guaranteed a goal.
Does Scholes play a character out on the field? He's played this game for decades, and he still can't figure his timing for a tackle, or have learned to not fucking try by now?

It's pretty infuriating what he gets away with
The worst was a blatant red card in the last game of the season a few years back at wigan or somewhere and he went on to help United win the game and the league
Yeah. Milner sent off.
JM7 (milner) with the red apparetly.
If Agent Rodwell's playing it's like playing with 9 men.
Best way to describe him. You can't put a price on that.
It's psychological as much as anything, United know they're going to get a goal at some point, so everyone is more relaxed and patient.
That old victim of his own reputation coming in to play
Yep, which is stupid justification.
Book him when he dives without contact, give him a decision when he's been fouled.
If referee's can't make these decisions, despite everyone watching at home being able to then give the fourth official an iPad and stop pretending it's 1960.
Football won't die with video assistance.
Yus! WBA better take advantage. Even taking away 2 points from City would help!
you mean me? on the day yeah i was furious because it was disgraceful at the time it seemed but on super slow mo replay it looks like it was a pen
so the ref made the biggest fluke call in history. Sorry but he did, there was no inclination at all that he could be 100% sure
clutch call, fluke call.

Are you people gonna boo him when he visits the Emirates too?
Rodwell picked up a knock with U-21 training. Not sure how long he'll be out but it can only help us.
