Was an amazing achievement by a great team...but they still dived...and without that Pires dive they'd have lost to Pompey and would not have been unbeaten.
So either accept brilliant teams use cheating as part of their armoury or condemn all of it ...
Simple really

And if Rooney hadn’t of dived at OT to ‘win’ a pen and end our 49 unbeaten run ..... and on it goes.

personally I hate it. I admit our players have done it and it’s ****ing embarrassing. Kane does it and so does Son. All teams are guilty.

I’d like to see refs carding players for simulation. ****ty VAR should be able to spot it. So there’s no excuse.

All do it... that's the point I was making.
For people to complain but then praise another team who did it is bizarre.

There is not a single team who does not cheat by diving or feigning injury.
It is simply a part of football that'll never be eradicated cos teams do not get free kicks or penalties if they stay on their feet.
It is now so ingrained it'll never change.

And it is ****.

well i remember Francis Lee & Rodney Marsh so that is just your age . Lee used to literally trip himself up so if fell realistically and iirc was top scorer one year mainly due to the number of penalties he won and then scored .

Slight tangent, I got awarded a penalty once when I tripped over my own laces, I said nothing.

Franny Lee would literally belly flop rather than dive, he was famous for it but he got lots of penalties.
