    1st one is debatable, still don't think it's enough contact to go down. Liverpool one a dive, 2nd image in particular shows there was barely any contact. I hate the saying 'there was contact', still doesn't mean it's a foul.

    those clip's should be sent to the referee association for ref's to study, and Gareth to have the bookings recinded

    It's nice to see that those specs in your avatar have a serious blue tint to them, Drogs! <laugh>

    rather hypocritical as the majority of football fans are in agreement with me that Bale does dive.

    plus why would they have a blue tint? I have nothing against Bale, I was just using him as an example because Hazard was being vilified for diving despite yourselves having a bigger culprit.

    I also remember you defending Modric's horrible dive last season in the penalty area so your definition of foul/dive is a lot lighter than mine.

    why are you treating this as a dick measuring competition? I haven't denied we don't have any, but you have by far one of the worst.

    Still not getting involved <whistle>

    BUT Opta stats show that Tottenham have had 3 bookings in the Premier League this season for dives meaning that Bale couldn't possibly have been booked 5 times for diving. Chelsea on the otherhand are currently on 6.

    I'm sorry Drogs, but you're being completely inconsistent. If you don't think that any of those are fouls, then you must think that Hazard's diving constantly.

    Modric was clearly fouled at Stoke. The defender kicked him in the shin and then put both of his hands on his head, as he knew he'd totally ballsed up.

    Show me the stats please? Or is "the majority of football fans" based on a little sample you did?

    as much as you like as long as you don't defend Bale in the process :)

    (notice how I have not denied Hazard being a diver/going down easily/however much you want to butter it up once here)

    SSN: Whelan's massive mistake is believed to be a dive by the Stoke fans, who think Modric dived, but it was a stone wall kick by the Ireland man and Spurs will be confident of getting back into this now.
    BBC: Some Stoke fans are convinced that was a Luka Modric dive by the look of things and the atmosphere in the Britannia is hot. For me, it was a stonewall penalty.

    Clearly kicks his standing leg. Foul.

    No, he was a Saint. Then we bought him, cos they were skint.
    Bale dives. Defoe's dived this season and got away with it.
    Most of the bookings that Bale's received this season have been clearly wrong.
