@ NOC
happy for you to have your opinion...as long as you understanding that in the scheme of things...its insignificant.

Unread post by Nice One Cyril » Thu Nov 26, 2020 6:36 am Forever remembered. As a dirty little cheat. I for one will shed no tears. Might even open a nice bottle of wine to celebrate, 1986 was a good year apparently. ;-) do you really think this mans legacy will be defined by what .85% of the world...

only problem would be definitively adjudging 'intent'....

its easier if theres been no contact but if there is contact how does one decide what level of contact is enough to warrant a player 'diving'???

Probably not, so whilst we don't know as we are not on the training ground, it's a fair conclusion to draw that the foreigners have taught those cheats to dive. love the contradiction....since you admit that you dont know whats happening on the training ground, it would be an UNFAIR conclusion to d...

ahhhh...I can see what you did.... you want to change the conversation away from...."the naughty foreigners taught the English how to dive" to "the naughty foreigners do it more often" I happen to agree that its become more prevalent in the EPL as the game has gone global (movement of players/greate...

cause your assertion is inaccurate/wrong. weve already confirmed that English players were diving and subsequently getting a reputation in the First Division, prior to the ban on foreign players being lifted. This surely contradicts your statement that it was 'foreigners who taught them'... others m...

well, im happy for you to go back on you original statement.

nah.....still dont buy it... maybe the link is the: * increase in popularity of the First Division/EPL * greater access to televised games * etc etc Either way the notion that diving for penalties is a purely foreign import should be dismissed for the empty generalisation that it is. Footballers in ...

nah...dont buy it...its always been there...

nevertheless, to learn something is one thing.....to chose to use it is another....no one forced them...except the time when Hoddle instructed Owen to fall easily in the penalty area...

Im pretty sure he's learnt from the best eg Young, Ali, Rashford, Kane and Vardy to name a few....

talking about Henderson...looks like hes caught the diving bug....

i think its important to respect/reflect the individual nuances of each sport....

what??? rewarding inaccuracy????

@ Carlton...theyve been tanking and rebuilding for 15 years.....we've dont it for 6 months.....

I'd love some help and advice on figuring out where to send my son next year.

how about the following in no particular order;

• the park
  the back yard
  the street

For my part, each club at each age group from U12+ should only have maximum of 2 teams per age group and we should do away with JPL and JSL. on the one hand youre concerned we lose players because of demoralising losses but on the other you want to place a quota on numbers at clubs....where do the ...

and what ever the issue is, it needs to be sorted

if you follow the Crows, how can you even ask this???

I'm no United fan but fair play to OGS, he's done a great job with them and I like the way he talks, no hiding behind excuses, same as Lamps. Two good young managers. lets not get carried away.....in terms of points, I think we achieved as many as last year but because both Arsenal and Chelsea drop...

good to have another great foreign coach in the EPL

if you dont care footing any legal costs....

lets just say that he thought he was escaping a situation in Victoria only for it to follow him here.

Gibbs certainly needs to be brought back into the side. The Crows have ruined his career.

2 coaches across 3 seasons haven't picked him consistently and you think the Club has ruined his career??? you obviously haven't heard the rumours....

from a Man U supporters of nearly 50 years.....through gritted teeth...well played and thoroughly deserved...no asterisk. Lets hope Real Madrid come calling for a few of your players.....

ahhhh to be a slapper in Liverpoo tonight....

any chance that he may have recovered????

surely theres a supplement the Bomber players can take to prevent transmission of COVID19

given everything.....does anyone really care anymore??? as much as I have missed sport, I just cant get motivated because the integrity of the comp has been further compromised....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

whats that about 'sour grapes' and "look at the scoreboard"............

It seems that the 'English' game hasnt changed much and the Scots have gone backwards...
