offenders when we as fans know they are doing it all the time, surely? It is the fact that they get away with it time and again that encourages them to carry on doing it. The refs are there to enforce the laws of the game. If those laws are being repeatedly and obviously flouted by certain known individuals, it is their fault.

Robben actually deserved at least 1, maybe 2 penalties earlier on, but the dive got rewarded.

Football needs video reffing as soon as possible to get some lost reliability back.

Of course there is. Without sounding like a homo, 95% of this world cup

Re: Ooooh!

I would trust Pob more to be in charge of the education system than this loon

What brings the game into disrepute, then, is the failure of the refs to punish such repeat

Loon and an ideologue. Dangerous man.

No. Match-fixing negates the sport as a contest whereas diving is an intrinsic part of that contest.

Oh FFS B, not more tedious, pseudo intellectual discourse about football. He's a big

That's right, I think. Looked at squarely, the integrity lies in the game, not the rules.

But it is a very,very hard aspect of the game to regulate because of the blurred lines between

Yesterday was a good example
