smoggeordie 0 Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 suppose so if he was trying get someone booked for fouling him..booked for simulation or something Fair do's I got penalised last night at 5 a side, had the ball in my hands, their lad took a swipe so I jumped out the way and went down. They got a free kick for my "diving". Fucking bong eyed ref. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stevie Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 The point is if a keeper is going to get booked for diving surely that's a foul in the box. If a player dives now free kicks can be given the other way, so surely a keeper doing that in the box should concede a pen. The said referee is a fuckin total and utter cockeyed nob. "How long to go ref" - "40 seconds" we were still playing 3 minutes later, hanging on for dear life at 5-4 with a man sent off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldstott 0 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Not sure to be honest, there aren't that many cheating diving keepers around... Could be an indirect free kick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say for example some player just brushed past the keeper and he went down as if he was shot, Jens Lehmann style, that would be class as "simulation". It would be an indirect free kick if it was given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
