[Super G Ted'inho]

Clear daylight for the blatant dive from Rooney. Nothing but praise as a result

Shocking dive...

BBC Salford...

"Wayne Rooney chases a ball through, Preston keeper Thorsten Stuckmann comes out and tackles him - Rooney goes down and a penalty is given. I don't think there is any contact..."

No, a tackle would mean making some sort of contact...

Commentator says that even though there is no contact the ref still has to give it. People forget the rules when they are bias.

Commentator biging up Smalling, for an England call for only conceding 1 goal against League 1 Preston

Falcao was absolute mince again, game changed when he took him off and stuck his best striker up front with the big lad.

I liked Falcao but I think running to the next club who offered the most has ruined him. Going to Monacco was crazy and English football isn't suiting him at all.

 

[Super G Ted'inho]

Commentators saying his run was impeded and he had to get out of the way lol

 

[astro]

[HASHTAG]#bbcsalford[/HASHTAG] saying no contact but Rooney had to dive out of the way

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

BBC Salford trying to justify the penalty by saying Rooney "had" to dive to get out the way... or he could just stay on his feet and not fall over

"The goalkeeper has come from a long way back and is nowhere near it. Once he goes down Phil Dowd has no choice but to give that. The penalty was emphatic from Wayne Rooney - he knows what he wants to do and no goalkeeper is saving that."


which is it?

 

[Magic Ted]

He dived when he got past the keeper so how does that work?

 

[mighty_stevie_g]

Talksport was telling me earlier that diving is part of the game and people should get over it after the Gayle stuff.

If Suarez done either one of his 2 or Rooneys tonight then it would be a week solid talking about it, sky sports polls the lot.

Hilarious

Man Utd still being outplayed in terms of legal football

Preston robbed, sad day for football when commentators openly support cheating

Not a single [HASHTAG]#legit[/HASHTAG] goal from £262m Man Utd against £0m Preston

 

[Page_Moss_Kopite]

Its not like the fat little runt ain't done it before, anyone notice Dowd whispering in Rooney's ear before the 2nd half kicked off.
