luckyluke 2 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Following Robben's histronics after the Liverpool keeper merely touched his face in the match yesterday, I am fed up of seeing grown men act like five year old girls. I know this problem has been rife for a while now but the FA really have to start acting seriously on this. Robben should be the one with the impending three match ban, not Arca. On a related note, the linesman who flagged Arca for the challenge should lose his job. One of the best tackles I've seen all season right in front of him and the twat raises his flag!

Gemmill 46030 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Do you mean Reina? Agree about Robben though. Someone should really hurt him, and give him something to cry about - I cannot STAND that sort of play-acting. It's one of the few things that would make me want to take to the pitch and kick a player all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke 2 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Share Posted February 6, 2006 Yeah, I meant Reina. You're right, someone needs to teach him a lesson, it's a shame him and Essien play for the same team. It's this 'raising your hands = automatic red card' rule that pisses me off. This isn't fucking netball. Anyone see Duncan Ferguson on Wednesday? Now THAT'S a red card!

MattM4 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 The FA, UEFA, FIFA need to do something about it ... What ive always said about it is this: If a player directly affects the outcome or an important even in the game by cheating (diving, overreacting etc...) and is not punished for it by the ref... Then okay he gets the penalty, he gets the other guy sent off. But an automatic 3 match ban follows. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Can I possibly comment in this thread without being accused of being a Chelsea fan? The ref was right to send Reina off, but Robben should have been booked too. Having said that, he shouldn't have been sent off for celebrating his goal a few weeks ago, so it's sorted itself out.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 You can't raise your hands and if you do you should go. However, punishment should also be given to divers. The problem with an incident like yesterdays though is that it happened so quickly and there was a crowd of players in the way. Difficult for the ref and linesman to see exactly what happened, other than the fact there is a bloke on the floor holding his face. Basically, we need zero tolerance towards diving. It would be great, Manure would have to play 3/4 of the season without Ronaldo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes in hard and when someone bites back he sticks his hand over his eyes as though someones jabbed a pencil in there... Fucking pussies - the FA should be awarding retrospective bookings for this sort of carry on and bollocks to this "if the referee doesn't report it, we can't do anything" bullshit... They need to grow a fucking spine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4411 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Gerrard versus us - why no red given the comments here? Its about common sense - I don't think it should be an auto red - the ref should be able to see what goes on - it wouldn't take a replay to realise Robben was a cheating shit - someone should have ran over and kicked the fucker's arse.

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 The simple fact is, if we're honest, unless somebody smacks you full in the face with an upercut, a flying elbow or some sort of heavy object you never actually need to hit the deck, and you certainly don't need to clutch your face like a little girl and screech in "agony". Seriously, anyone on here who's ever been hit in the face did you hit the deck or roll around on the ground, did you bollocks and thats a proper hit. If somebody taps you with a finger or slaps you then you'd have barely moved an inch. So any player who says they aren't cheating or feignign injury is a liar as well as a complete prick. Any players who do should retrospectively get the same ban as the player who got the red for "hitting them". The only difference is they serve their 3 matches playing rugby union where they'll encounter some actual men and some actual injuries and may come back acting less like tarts.

NJS 4411 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 You can be knocked off balance by a slap but then you should get straight back up - like Bowyer did at Anfield (though in his case he was probably thinking of continuing the "Chat") As I've said elsewhere it makes me think of blokes who get involved in a "fair" fight where nobody gets hurt who then go to the Police - shitbags one and all.

All that needs to happen is for the authorities to take action by awarding a red card after the event if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two wrongs don't make a right. Robben should get a damn sight more than a booking, the conniving little cnut. Until blatant cheating like this is punished with the severity it deserves then it will continue to be commonplace. I don't think Reina should have been sent off - it wasn't even a slap, he just placed his palm on the guy's face as he told him to foxtrot oscar. Violent conduct my arse.

TheInspiration 1 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Wait a sec, what's this in Benitez's inteeview about seeing him in hospital? Was he making some cheeky comment? Because if so I can only say good on him really. Robben must really be wasting the staff's time at the hospital after being pinched in the cheek... or was it the sheer power from Reina's brutal push that wounded him?

Look at what Reina did, tell me honestly, is that 'violent conduct'? Your comments justifying Robben going unpunished because he was sent off before (within the 'laws of the game' btw) smack of a Chelsea apologist. It has not 'evened itself out', tell that to Liverpool who probably will be without their first choice keeper for three games now. Robben should recieve a similar punishment if we ever want to get rid of this kind of thing, not have excuses made for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
