    Bale booked again..what's that 4 times this season he has been booked for diving. Undoubtedly very talented but why does he do this?
    Need I mention if this was Luis would it be washed over? I think not.
    Will it stop bale being player of the season..probably not.

    A scouser complaining about dives, so funny you couldn`t make it up.
    At least when Bale dives there is usually a player within 6ft of him unlike Suarez (ala Stoke).

    How many times has Suarez been booked?

    Rooney has a classic collection of dives.

    And your whole United defence have a penchant for throwing themselves to the ground every time they look like they'll get done by a player, Evans v Michu. RvP real Madrid, Vidic v Real Madrid, the size of that guy and a touch of a glove and he's down for a minute<doh>

    That aint even getting into kagawa who goes down easier than a quart of whiskey at the fungus breakfast table

    Suarez has been booked for simulation twice this season in all competitions, whereas Bale has 6 by the most recent records. Gareth 7 games Bale will inevitably hit the double figure mark before the season ends.

    So the fact that he dives when there are players around him is ok then? I didn't realise there are levels of diving,some being more acceptable than others then?
    I guess this also goes for feigning injury ala nani on Tuesday ?

    Suarez goes down easily ,you can't argue with that but he seems to be cutting out the diving. whatever team you support, you cannot condone .It's cheating and you simply cannot defend it.

    Gerrez i am not really a Bale fan but i have seen on replays a few of his bookings and a number of them i would consider harsh (i.e. definate contact).
    I highlighted the Suarez/Stoke for obvious reasons.
    Just before the Man Utd - Liverpool thread got closed BBf asked why everyone seemed to want to wum Lfc?
    My answer was that some of your supporters give us lots of crap to work with, a thread like this being one.
    Double standards and such.

    You got this the wrong way round that's what's dumb about it.

    We had you all descend in here from on high and over react like bitches over a Suarez dive and then cry double standards when we point out others diving and the fact its not being highlighted with as much relish.

    But you go ahead holding your versions of reality like a blankey.

  17. Fair points but it not just this thread. You know full well that if you mention Suarez then you will entice a response suitable for the banter thread prior to it being closed and then moved to the Man Utd board, something that us MOD's (and other posters) are pretty fed up with seeing hence the actions taken with that particular thread!

    I had to, normally I don't but <doh>

    Thing is Bale dived tonight again, booked for the 6th? 7th? time, no point discussing anyone else FFS, bale is a record breaker. Who's been booked most in a season prior to donkey kong?

    Suarez get so much abuse, more than bale, for 2 bookings.

    If you wan't to take the moral highground you're ****ed, your own players like to dive and kick other players.
