SamyCM Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/a/arsenal/9351043.stm What do you think about the former Saint admitting to diving, fair play to him for it, or stupid? I have a feeling it could come back to haunt him, if refs see it there perception on him will change and if he goes down in the box in the future you would have thought a ref would have second thoughts about giving it.
Chin Strain Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 Disgrace. Bottom line is that it's cheating.

Crab Lungs Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 It's bad that he's cheated but how bloody refreshing it is to hear someone admit to it. 95% of the Premier League would probably dodge the question or deny it...
Saintandy666 Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 Did he dive for THE penalty or at another point? Reading on the leeds forum, they don't seem too angry because at the actual penalty he didn't...
SamyCM Posted 8 January, 2011 Author Posted 8 January, 2011 Did he dive for THE penalty or at another point? Reading on the leeds forum, they don't seem too angry because at the actual penalty he didn't... I believe it was the first one which was given as offside after Dowd have given the penalty.
Hatch Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 Every player at all levels cheats. From Sunday morning kick abouts to World Cup Finals.
Saintandy666 Posted 8 January, 2011 Posted 8 January, 2011 I believe it was the first one which was given as offside after Dowd have given the penalty. Ok, so Arsenal haven't actually gained any advantage because this. People will end up thinking it was the penalty, but that doesn't make it any better. At least he admitted to it I guess, but as Hatch says everyone does it.

Reading on the leeds forum, they don't seem too angry because at the actual penalty he didn't... Just heard on SSN that it was the first one that was given but the lino then flagged for offside.
