Remember when the Noble Manure players confessed to the ref for these.
That looks distinctly like the useless Lee Mason - he's blowing for a foul before the cheating Rag has hit the deck. Didn't the QPR guy get sent off for that as well! MANUre have been serial divers. The evidence is crystal clear.
What makes you think he's ever been here,Probably only watched the highlights.
Yep pen and red card or 2nd yellow can't remember.

There's a huge difference with these. They deliberately attempted to con the ref and achieve an advantage, thereby cheating.
Raheem didn't. At no point did he seek to gain an advantage. He didn't attempt to con the ref. He didn't dive. He didn't cheat.
Yet he's the bad guy.
I saw that. It was Naga Munchetty who said it, but I don't think she's that clued up on football. It was spoken from a naive position, understandable if you're not a regular watcher of any sport. The other presenters stayed out of it.BBC Sport news reporter covers the game.
They talk about the pen and how Sterling could have told the ref.
Female news reporter:
“That’s cheating isn’t it?”
Fuck me someone with a nose that big telling porkies won't end well.Just to brighten everyones morning, this is a snippet from Phil Thompsons take on the Derby as published by Sky online ......
This is a huge problem for United, mainly due to the money Manchester City have - it's bottomless! At least at United it's kind of self-financing of what they generate but City have got a country running them. It's harsh but it's the way it is.
I'll leave it there.
The Telegraph is worse. 6-0 all the focus is on the pen.
Whenever I hear, see or read about Phil Thompson, Peter Reid's comments that were heard live on telly always comes to mind.Just to brighten everyones morning, this is a snippet from Phil Thompsons take on the Derby as published by Sky online ......

It's a bit like me asking why that rugby player didn't get banned for life for trying to gouge somebody's eye out.
I have boycotted it since 1989 like lots of Manchester-based City and United fans who were disgusted by its coverage of Hillsborough. Given our poor relationship with Liverpool younger City fans may be surprised by this but, at the time, the Sun newspaper was an enemy of all football fans. In my view it still is.I think we should now ban anyone connected with the SUN from anywhere near our club. They are beneath contempt. Clearly not a penalty but no dive and an apology afterwards. Hardly affected the result or yet another marvellous performance.
