Away fella - it was a blatant dive - even the Beeb said so...
Quote:
Former England striker Ian Wright defended Steven Gerrard's "dive" to earn a penalty in the win over Hungary.
Replays showed there was no contact from Czabo Feher on Gerrard but Wright did not condemn the England midfielder.
"Other teams will do it against us, so why don't we? It will happen to us again, so we should," he said during the BBC's Match of The Day coverage.

"There's nothing worse with diving. It annoys me. I don't think there is anything worse than seeing not just a foreign player but any player diving when no one's been anywhere near him.
"If I saw a team-mate doing it I would definitely have a word. It's happened here at Liverpool a couple of times, where players have gone down too easily, and the manager has said: 'Get up, get on with it, don't be doing that. It's wrong'.
"I think managers and captains, leaders and experienced players have a responsibility to grab people after a training session or a game and say 'None of that. That doesn't happen here.'"
Steven Gerrard, Daily Mail, April 1

Was this a wee April fools joke by Stevie?

Re: The anyone but England thread!
BBC Linky...
Quote:
We can reveal that there is indeed a severe shortage of T&T shirts in the UK - and it's mainly down to the Scots.
Stacy-Marie Ishmael, spokeswoman for the Soca Warriors Supporters' Club says it's because no fewer than six of the Trinidad and Tobago squad are playing their club football in Scotland.
The fact that St Johnstone striker Jason Scotland (no surprises that official replicas of his jersey have been selling like hot cakes) is one of them, and the fortuitous acronym of T&T, means they have a wide following among Scottish fans.
Nothing of course to do with the fact the Soca Warriors have been drawn against England in Group B...

Mon the T&T

Indeed, especially considering Van Basten pretty much played a B team

And if you object then you're obviously 'jealous', sour grapes etc etc

Re: The anyone but England thread!
I think the Hunter as you call it is still a bit too unexperienced in an Oranje shirt Daniel, but I do agree with you.
