    Stirling did not dive - Fact.
    He was fouled and went down.

    Interesting that you're claiming a fact when others are arguing its my opinion he dived?

    Do you recall Rashford getting two pens for dives for us last season?

    Do you recall salah getting a penalty from dummet the season before?

    It's just I have evidence of people calling them cheats and arguing they dived.. People that argued differently about this incident that of course went for them

    Anyway regardless myself and you now have an understanding of what you consider a dive and a cheat and a difference in opinion and I'm sure we won't need to alter them in the future :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Spend all the time you want gathering evidence.
    It's no skin off my nose
    My opinions will be what they are, as I see fit.

    We'd already established your opinion and mine.

    All im asking and not to you specifically is why people change their opinion on what's diving and whether its cheating depending on who it's given to?

    Opinions will always change depending on the circumstances.
    You may call it hypocrisy, however, it's not, it's simply human nature.
    Football in particular is a sport where getting the slightest edge can make a world of difference.
    So players 'cheat', be it diving, time-wasting, agitate the officials etc.

    As for us, we have every right to change our opinions.
    I'm not being disrespectful, so don't think I am, but, to think otherwise has a sense of naivety to it.
    Keeping evidence, of peoples post on a football forum, is you're prerogative, but I suspect it's water off a ducks back for most.

    Anyway, I have more important things to do, so, that's my last on the subject.

    That hasn't really answered my question and nobody is saying you don't have the right to change your opinion as I've said in previous posts on this conversation.

    You're not being disrespectful your reply is fine, but it appears to me you're now getting into a debate on what hypocrisy is or isn't? Hypocrisy just is a thing mate it's not something only I call it.

    We're all guilty of it and I will have been too..

    Can we try to slip some heavy-duty industrial strength laxatives into their pre match dinner?

    They always historically **** themselves when facing the English army so it might make no difference though.!

    Possibly the only final England will reach in his life time and Munsons throwing a wobbly one and changing teams.

    I love how he goes out of his way to not enjoy things <laugh>

    Apparently our scientists at Aldermaston are working on a much more powerful laser for when Tom does go down.
