    He was clever with it as well. Unlike Billy who wore his heart on his sleeve and who used to just retaliate straight away. Giles would bide his time and get his own back later...<ok>

    That’s fine, he stops diving around like a tart the criticism stops. We’re meant to turn a blind eye because it’s one of our players? It’s beginning to put the team under pressure because refs are not giving the foul as much so we lose the ball, the opposition attack and we have a player out of the game.

    "Diving about like a tart". Really? Got any video evidence of this? I think not. Unless it happened before Xmas, or in the last 3 games, which I missed, being on holibags.

    Alioski, and to a lesser degree Saiz, run at players, usually at speed. Doing this, you either get past, get tackled, or get clattered. I do not have firm figures for this, but based on what I've personally watched, successful tackles are heavily rooted at the bottom of the list. There's about a 50:50 split between the other 2. Both are deliberately clattered time & time again, just like the old days, but without the protection normally afforded skillul players these days (that's a dig at referees & is wholly subjective on my part, although deep in my heart I actually do believe that referees are often predisposed to hurting us as much as possible). Yes, there may have been diving at the beginning of the season, and yes, it may have continued for longer than we'd all have liked, but to suggest that it continued, except on rare occasion, beyond Christmas, is bang out of order - because it's just not true. So why continue to try to slay them for something they're not guilty of?

    Oh **** off. The diving cheating soft **** is an embarrassment and just cos you don't agree with the opinion of quite a few who see him possibly more regularly than you doesn't mean they are wrong.

    Wind your neck in.

    There ain't a game goes by without him waving the pretend cards. Are you sure you watch the game?
    If he was playing for the opposition you would be going ballistic.

    Apart from being a cheat he is also ****... Hopefully never see him play again.

    I'm sorry, did I forget to ask your permission to express an opinion?

    Oh, wait a minute, this isn't the website you set up for Mighty to run is it?

    Perhaps you should wind your neck in.

    How would you know? Aren't you the guy who was ridiculed on here for commenting on a player that wasn't even on the field? So if you don't know what a player looks like, how can you possibly comment on what he does?

    And yes, I'm very sure I watch the game - and a lot more than you do.

    And if moving to Spain further reduces your already pitiful attendance record, then I guess it's quite possible you won't see him again.

    I've had the misfortune of seeing Alioski play 40+ times for Leeds, I cringe at some of his antics, I suppose he appeals to our younger fans

    Many regulars want shot of him !

    Freedman was probably our best loan-signing over the last fifteen years

    Obviously, you can't expect anyone from Liverpool to spell Milner. It's a very difficult word.

    It also seems those with a supremacy complex can't see him for what he is.

    Thank god some of those that see him week in and week out have a clue because some that only attend home games have no fecking idea what they are talking about and don't seem to understand that having just about the worst points haul in 2018 is a sure sign we have feck all talent worth keeping.

    If you watch the game you have no clue about the game if you think this lightweight cheat is even average at this level..,. So are you clueless or just on a wind up..,

    Unusual for the scousers, they've added something, they usually take things away.
