    Ok, I'm not just another fan that's gonna come on here and call you a bunch of diving ****s or call Suarez a cheating ****. That's already been done to death. I'm not gonna criticise you in this article, and I just want you to consider what I have to say.

    So Suarez in the spotlight again for diving. Even after Rodgers has reportedly talked to Suarez about it, and claimed that he is angry at Suarez, Suarez couldn't resist the urge to cheat.

    If you're not embarrassed about this, and if you don't give a **** how you win, even if it's by cheating, then aren't you worried that Karma could come back to bite you? What if you're in a cup final, or in a final day premier league match, and Suarez is genuinely fouled in the penalty area? The referee could very well see that it is Suarez, and assume that he's dived, and you could be robbed of a very vital result!

    It has happened to Gareth Bale already. Bale has dived quite a few times in the past, and recently he was booked for diving when he was genuinely fouled. What if this happens to Suarez? Some of you may tell me to **** off and may not give a **** how you win, but if Suarez' current and past actions come back to bite you later on, you'll all be giving him abuse.

    Suarez needs to stop the cheating now, or he'll end up costing his side, and he'll likely be the first player banned by the FA for diving. Liverpool fans are quick to defend him, saying he's unfairly treat by the media and that Suarez' actions are always overhyped, but he doesn't bloody well help himself by continuously cheating!

    Liverpool FC is a massive club, and whoever is playing in the red shirt will be in the spotlight, whether you like it or not.

    Suarez has already been fouled in the penalty box when we were playing Norwich, he was elbowed in the back of the head, penalty wasn't given.

    Then against Stoke, this wasn't in the penalty area but Huth blatantly stamped on Suarez' stomach, again nothing given.

    If you ask me, Karma's already come round, and she'll be back for more I'm sure!

    My SAF's standards, it wasn't a dive. <whistle>

    This isn't the same as the Stoke dive where no one was near him.

    Actually, for the penalties and decisions he's won by diving, I'd say those two decisions against him aren't even close to real Karma.

    Tash, you're talking bollox.

    Plenty of pundits in every game I watch regurgitate the "soft but there was contact argument" and yet it doesn't apply to Suarez: Why? Simply because he's Suarez?

    Either they are all dives or the game has indeed changed & its legal for a player to "win" a foul under even the slightest of contacts. You can't have both.

    And why do you give a stuff? Are you Buddhist? Talking about karma in the same post as stating you want a serious debate.

    Fail.

    No they wouldn't. It was never a penalty.

    Did Suarez dive ? No as there was contact, he did however make a meal out of it to try and influence the ref but it wasn't a dive.

    Personally I think you see this every other game and it's just waived away by the ref but for some reason he (and he had a **** all round game) decided to give it. When he pointed to the spot I thought 'ahhhh here we go' thinking Gerrard would slot and we'd win 1-0 but with Suarez grabbing all the headlines because of it.

    The thing is this isn't or at least shouldn't be about Suarez, what should be highlighted was how poor the ref was but I can see where you are coming from.

    What Suarez did was play on the contact which is hardly unusual with alot of players in alot of teams but of course Suarez with his history and admission of past diving this was always going to be highlighted more than other players doing it.

    And this is the same thing that every player for every team does every week.

    Do I like it? No. I think footballers are a bunch of pansies who need to man up and refs should stop giving soft penalties. But that's football currently. **** like this is given. Any fan who criticises Suarez for this is a hypocrit - even if we ourselves don't like it.

  18. Worried...? Not at all! Why would I be? It's not like me worrying about it is going to make a difference! Do I like him or any other player diving? Of course not, but what can we as fans do about it? Moaning on a football forum isn't going to achieve anything. Let's get back to just calling each others players cheating bastards and have done with it <laugh>

    Reachround ? Deal ?

    To be honest I would care if we won via a dodgey penalty as at the end of the season it's the title that people remember not the dodgy penalties.

    Like you say I wouldn't like it but I do accept that it's just part of the game now.

    It doesn't help matters that Suarez just has one of those faces that you would love to punch.

    In regards to him clapping the ref last night, he's done that loads this season now but as far as I'm aware that's the first time he has been booked for it. Not sure though ?

    As above he didn't dive but did make a meal of the little contact that was made and yes every player does It...He needs to act better though because he seems to over egg the pudding whereas others seem to go down less obviously If you catch my drift...
