I thought he was a good, honest player before today. What a dive!

 

[AFCG7]

i wonder if the press will nail him to the wall now.
instead they'll target Wenger for saying what they all said about Pires

when members of your team dive for penalties you can hardly complain when the role is reversed

 

[jc8gooner]

thats true, but its still bloody annoying. I would prefer it if no-one dived whatsoever. wishful thinking i guess, with the ikes of ronaldo and Van Nistelrooy in the prem ;D

Ruud doesnt dive.................. :cry:
as for diving.......................

 

[jc8gooner]

great picture. "Ruud doesn't dive"- shouldn't that be in the jokes section. I see you don't deny that ronaldo dives!

i would love to say that ronaldo doesnt dive but i cant
he does go to the ground rather easy, hopefully fergie will have a word with him to sort this out

again i will say, my ruud doesnt dive :wink:

 

[jc8gooner]

I can't say that pires doesn't dive either. But van Nistelrooy is an expert. Are you just jokin?

 

[champs]

me joke?................never
i will defend ruud til my death bed, he does not dive................ well not much anyway

 

[jc8gooner]

I must say he is dieting on the diving front at the moment.

im glad, i hate it when he does it
hopefully fergie said something to him & he will stop

 

[jc8gooner]

You admitted it! Yes. I think fergie did say something tho.

 

[JazzG]

I always thought he was an honest player as well, boy did he prove me wrong heh

 

[jc8gooner]

shame really. Then again, he didn't really appeal for a pen did he. That would have been real cheating. I think he might have been surprised the ref gave it. The fact that he seems to be an honest player and all might have convinced fatboy steve dunn that there was contact and it wasn't a dive.

 

[champs]

You admitted it! Yes. I think fergie did say something tho.

ive admitted nothing..........................

 

[nnn]

I think he anticipated the dive , more then simply going for it. He was expecting big impact from Lauren and kinda stopped tensing his body to take the impact. It didnt come and is still a dive.

No biggy

Look who's talking when Ruud is the most famous diver in the world. Not olympic material ... but famous ;D

 

[AFCG7]

of course we can complain .. do you expect us to say its ok ?

 

[Alexone234]

:shock:

Ruud doesn't dive, monkies talk and pigs fly.

I think Matt Holland did what anyone else would do. Well done him, because he earned his team a point.

As for diving, it will never stop so we just have to live with it.

 

[Jinn]

If they bring in video refs, (which I'm sure they'll do at some point in the future) it will probably stop.
