Paul millar often did it and many others and we applauded them off the pitch after a sending off we called it passion![]()
We often sang for our player to snap his legs or knock him out..
These days its frowned upon maybe back then it was the only thing on the pitch to get excited about

The other bit of cheating that is encouraged by var is players deliberately put their leg in front or between opponents leg to get penalty or dangerous free kicks.... you can see the deliberate movement of the leg yet they side with attacker do encouraging it more

I sometimes wonder whether most referees or lawmakers have ever kicked a ball let alone played eleven a side. We all know getting a clip on the leg doesn't hurt most of the time but professional players hold their legs and writhe around as if they had a red hot poker stuck up their jacksey. And the referees fall for it. Pathetic. Go down the lower leagues and you rarely see it. Are we to believe that tackles hurt more the higher the standard of football.
