Btw he was persistently fouled by our stand in left back (McCann) who had to cover for low whom in MY OPINION was unfairly sent off but it was a bit of shirt pulling innocent enough stuff.
He was touched, i.e. he was fouled, i.e. it wasn't a dive. A dive is when someone goes over without contact. Your player made contact with the player and not the ball- what are you complaining about again?Quote:

He made a meal of it. Shame on Him! What about the etiquette of the game and the rules of fair play
maybe he did, but he didn't dive. IMO, if contact is made and it affects the chance of scoring (as it did in this case) its a foul and the player is entitled to go over.
Well if your players had observed the "etiquette of the game and the rules of fair play", the referee would not have had to send one of them off, and give a penalty against another one.Quote:

Enough of this petty stuff, the better team won on the night!.......... Like it or not, players diving or going down too easily is part of the game,
are we suggesting our forwards wouldn’t do the same if the opportunity arose?? Lets not be naive, we need to toughen up………….
In fairness to Rovers, they battled hard and gave a good account of themselves, but only for O’Hara and the woodwork it could have been
an embarrassing shoreline. Let’s not knock the opposition, they are a good team and deserved their win, we’ll learn from this game and move on
There was NO DIVING whatsoever, and to suggest or even imply that there was, and thats how City won the game, is silly and ridiculous.Quote:

Ah come on now.....we have the best shoreline in the country.Quote:
