Koln player gets sent off for this...
Bloody lunatic... :D
Even the fans join in...
Ronaldo vs Germany...
Henry vs Puyol...
Adriano vs Roma...
Materazzi vs Toni... :D
Knut Fostervold of Molde vs eh, himself...
Gilardino vs Celtic
and of course Drogba vs Lehamann...
Fuking brilliant, great work. But should I be laughing? Whatever:D :D :D
That second one is absaloutly priceless...Brilliant stuff!:D
Ah classic. The Barca fan is the best. What was he even thinking?
People look back at these incidents an say they are wrong.....Drogba in particular is a disgrace......why do referees or an F.A. not look back at these and say its wrong and do something about it.....if they are caught doing this then ban them!!! Its the only way to stop it!!
TV should "out" the actors. SKY, BBC, ITV, the print media, everyone.
They should have a feature after every game "Cheat Watch". The message would soon become clear.
Acting is the worst part of the current game & the authorities have been cowardly in their apoproach to it. Like in Rugby Union the authorities should have the ability to "cite" cheating and let the player cited explain his antics.
Funny though, I was 10 during the Argentina WC in '78. That summer I took a dive and won a free kick having seen it on the telly. I thought I was being really cool & professional! My opponent was utterly aghast.
As a member of the theatre profession, I am most displeased with the title of this thread. Most of my thespian colleagues would agree with me that, even at their worst, any trained actor would manage something much better than that, especially the Norwegian chap. I expect that I shall write a letter to the editor of The Daily Mail.
On a side note, congratulations on restricting yourself to only one of Drogba, and none of Ronaldo - discipline is always impressive.
I thought this thread was about Vinny Jones, the well known ex -professional "footballer" turned "actor" turned greyhound doper. (allegedly)

It's a good thing that football is already so popular everywhere - if FIFA was trying to grow its popularity in new areas it would be rightly laughed at with this type of pantomime.
Disgusting really, do these people have no sense of professional pride or dignity:confused: Even if you are fouled, wouldn't it make you more of a man to just get up and get on with it, instead of showing your opponent and the world what a big pussy you are?:rolleyes:
The Gilardino one is fascinating - he knows he has no chance of getting the ball so he instinctively falls back on something that worked for him before. Hilarious to see him diving with his face turned back to see if his appeal has been successful.
Maybe they should build a formal appeal into the rules like in cricket, instead of the play-acting, a player has to shout when he thinks he's been fouled - HOWISITTTTTTTTTTT!!! :D
On the homefront, I have to say that Roy O'Donovan is the most Oscar-worthy of all players in the league. Even when he is fouled, the way he hurls himself to the ground is embarrassing. Any other suggestions for worst culprit on this?
Uh, yes, exactly, gustavo is right, what he said, yeah.Quote:

Some more beauties:
:D :D
I'm aching all over.
My prize goes to Drogba and Lehmann for their side splitting Charlie Chaplin routine.
one player that really gets my goat at the moment is Gattuso, he nearly always has to go off injured at least once in a game,
remember in the world cup he went off 3 times in one game
i hate the fact that he gives it all with the mouth, and looks agressive, but touch him and he is rolling around like a baby
he is no roy keane, and hope Stevie G gives him a good kick up the ar se
On the contrary , I believe he is every bit as effective as Keane whilst maybe lacking Keanes comfort on the ball. and the very notion of Gerrard being able to give him a kick in the arse is laughableQuote:

i swear he goes off "injured" nearly every game, imagine in one world cup game going off three times, and then as soon as he was off up off the strecther and on to the field again, just one of these johnny foreign types, easy to knock off the ball, etc.....ballack is another one!
is he tough cause he got a cool smig?
He's every bit as good as Keane off the ball but nowhere near as good with the ball at his feet.Quote:
