Exhibit 3: ref could have bought the fake, given the keeper a red and the game would end right there. Never has there been a clearer case for punishing a dive. I repeat, pussy ref. He had a clear view.
Bale has to protect himself since refs are incompetent...he cant take the risk so goes down...i dont blame him....every match he gets his ankles knocked..refs are **** so you take it upon yourself. Gent is a closet spurs fan..he watches every match
It wouldn't have been a red if it was a foul, as the player was going well, well wide of the goal. Most refs would've given a yellow.
Funniest thing I've read all week. "He dived to protect himself." Whatever you're smoking, send it this way.
Bale kneed in the back, which goes unpunished. Gives him an annoying excuse for diving, when such clumsy challenges are allowed to stand.
see that kind of cynicism goes unpunished so i dont blame Bale at all...and gent your right the ref is ****..you know that,i know that and Bale knows that.
you didnt know that before kick off......you just pipe up when you have something negative to point out..closet Spurs fan
Arsenal fans simply can't moan about diving. You all loved Pires and he was easily the worst proponent in Premier League history. Shh.
http://online--soccer.eu/channel2.html im watching this one YV..its not too bad..has its moments but beggers cant be choosers.
Yes, Arsenal fans are a monolithic organism, unless you're saying you've met all Arsenal fans. Point blank, Bale is a dirty diver but he's not the only one. In the near future, he will get fouled in the box and he won't get the penalty decision because of his rep. Then AVB will come out with the obligatory "he's not that kind of player" etc. But don't let the truth stand in the way of facts. Refer to Arsenal players from years ago.
Huh? My stream was keeps messing up but I didn't see him appeal for it, if he has then yeah that's cheating, if not you can't blame him for not wanting to get caught by a big keeper running full speed at him.
This is a bit more current, no? I have nothing against players taking their chances diving, but when they are caught the punishments should be consistent, no matter if the player has a previous yellow, is a 'swell' guy, has blue eyes, etc. He won't get many clearer views of an obvious 100% dive like that.
just make sure you close the chat box in the top right otherwise you will go mental from the clunking sound noise!
He didn't exactly jump right up, and slid far enough for the ref to make his decision on a foul 3 times over. You think he'd talk the ref out if he had given a foul?
