That's one of the best over-hit crosses I've ever seen.

Such a ****. Honestly. Lives down to every anti-Uruguayan prejudice right-minded football fans have built up from watching the national team.

****ing Suarez. Joke, really. But, on that note.

Yep, it was pretty bad but will be ignored because of the Suarez one. Both should be retroactively banned.

Yeah. I actually don't have as much of a problem with players diving as most, because it isn't being punished. You actually lose out these days if you don't dive. They need to just review this sort of stuff after the game and if they're found to be diving ban them for a game or two.

Surely a player who got retroactively banned would be able to challenge that?

Now I know we all laughed when Huth stamped on Suarez but how the hell has he not been charged for that?

Suarez is a sewer rat but to get stamped on is a bit much.

Pulis self righteous tone on diving is a bit much when he employs thugs like Huth it must be said.

To to mention Ryan "He's Not That Kind of Lad" Shawcross. Know English centre-halves at something of a premium just now, but man Woy is scraping the barrell there.

See Coyle's got the arse too. Cue much merriment from Turf Moor, no doubt.

Corrin to comment in the fullness of time no doubt...

It's a great shame that when we return to the Championship they won't be there. But still, at least their stable finances will provide them with a secure future.

Scumbuckets.
