Players Asking for Others to be Booked

Players Asking for Others to be Booked

Hate it. Cant stand it. :evil:

Its happened more at Euro 2004 than i have ever seen before. Every time theres a foul, the player gets up and waves his fingers at the ref suggesting the other guy should be booked.

I reckon a yellow should be shown straight at any player who does this. Soon stop it.

Re: Players Asking for Others to be Booked

U watchin the match?

They just on about it on there - i agree totally - if sum1 asks the ref to book sum1 else - THEY shud get booked.......

Its silly cos a lot of the time the ref wouldnt book sum1 if opposition player hasnt asked/pressured them too..........

Re: Players Asking for Others to be Booked

It's starting to creap into the english game vin. I hate it also. I wish i was a good football player, can only manage a sunday lge team, pro footballers dont know there born.

Gazza (i think :spangled: ) once give the referee a yellow card during a match cos the ref dropped it


I agree that you shouldnt ask for others to be booked

Unsportsman-like

I remember Gazza doing that. And the ref had a sense of humour bypass and booked Gazza.

Shearer also did it last season, after that ref elbowed Savage and knocked him out cold. That ref took the joke.

You would be gutted like wouldnt ya

aye was gazza...gave ref a red card after he dropped it so the ref booked him.......

I remember, that's fucking sportsmanship.

Davids is the worse for that he thinks he is the referee

Anyone see that Gronkjear get a 10.0 at the olympics earlier ??? Resulting in Nedved getting a yellow ?

I was pissing myself silly that the ref fell for it.

It's ok to do it at schoolboy level, because you dont know better, but these are pros that are doing it, if the ref sees a dive it should be a straight red, and let the other team shag your missus, that would soon teach the cheating bastards.
