Is Bale a cheat ?

Do you believe we give Bale an easier time for diving as he is British & not foreign ! I believe if he wasn't Welsh we would be slating him for being a diver . What's your thoughts !

No worse than Michael Owen.

True . He did admit he dived to gain an advantage but does that make it ok ?

Yes, but a bloody good one.

Yep. If he dived.
Or did he just go down easily?

But.....Im not going to lose a lot of sleep that Scotland got hard done by against Wales.
One down one to go!

Maloney collided with bale he admits. So no dive. Jocks commentators said he beat 4 players and then Maloney came across him, so no dive as contact made. Commons (sp) spent most of game on the grass, every touch, or not touch he was on the floor,typical cheating ladyboys.

Berra knocked the ball out for a corner then put his hand up to claim for a goal kick knowing full well it was a corner. Does that make him a cheat?

In my eyes, yeah! I'd book every player who claims for obvious decisions against them. They do it to try and put a little doubt in the officials minds and if they keep doing it they always tend to get an awful decision. It's unsporting.

video evidence should be used after games, and bans issued for unsporting behaviour, diving, cheating, spitting etc.

Maybe it does. What about when Arron Ramsey deliberately dived in the Scotland penalty area does that make him more of a cheat then Berra ?

I wanted you to say no so we could have an argument over it

He may dive now and again but he must be the best diver in the world 'cause it genuinely looks like he gets fouled.

Bale kicked the back of his own leg and went down. He cheated but I think any ref would have given a penalty, Bale was very clever knowing Maloney was crossing the back of him and timed his trip to perfection.

I don't agree Michael Owen is a cheat as he just said he went down easy. If you get fouled in the penalty box, why let the defender get away with it? In open play if you could keep your feet you would the majority of the time, but in the box if it's a foul to knock you off balance, you would be an idiot not to go down. Unfortunately, players have to go down in the box to get a penalty, otherwise the refs won't give it. I put the blame to the refs for being too dull to realise when a player is getting fouled, the refs think no matter how much a player gets fouled, if he keeps his feet then it isn't a penalty and unfortunately, this encourages players to go down too easily. It's not Michael owen's fault the ref won't give a penalty if he is being too honest and keeps his feet when he gets fouled, so I don't blame him for going down easily if he is fouled in the box.

If your fouled in the box you have every right to go down . What I don't like is the cheats who dive without being touched , these are the players that are spoiling the game I love & turning it into a farce

I totally agree, that's why I've said I don't believe Michael Owen is a cheat as all he admitted to was going down easily when he was impeded in the box. Suarez's dive on the other hand is dispicable and he should have a 3 game ban and fine for it. I still think players would be a lot more honest if referees only gave fouls if a player went down mind.

I've played with players who do that. Hate it.

You would have hated playing against me then, I used to appeal for anything that I thought the referee was slightly undecided on, even if I 100% knew it wasn't my decision. It's worth a try sometimes, as long as it doesn't come across you're completely taking the piss of course.

If he is part of your team, no he is not

I actually meant no
Equal cheats, a cheat is a cheat.

Bale is a diver but if he was playing for his home town club then I would say he was not a diver.

Of course he cheated

Was it you who wrote on here that last week that said Bale was a diver & got absolutely slaughtered for it ?

Was Joe Jordan a cheat ?.

Was Joe Jordan a cheat ?.

I think he was on that occasion....don't you ?

Yep, joe Jordan is definitely a cheat. Still denies it as well which is embarrassing.

It's funny how people's opinions change in a week as it looks like they actually agree with what you said
