Ashley Young's dive is good for City

It was quite a while ago and I think it was in the Champions League in a game between Arsenal and Celtic (?), but didn't Eduardo get banned for two games after video replays showed that he conned the ref into giving a penalty?
Young's done this in two home games on the bounce and nothing gets done about it, maybe it's different governing bodies, but it's double standards of the highest order for me. One rule for those red b'stards and another for the rest. What makes my blood boil (and it's still boiling after two days) is that some of the TV "pundits" are even saying that his latest plunge to the ground was "probably a penalty as there WAS contact". Utter bollox, lets call it what it is, it's cheating, and the little red shit is getting away with it. No come back at all.
Some people have been calling for the rules about retrospective action being changed and that when this happens these sort of decisions will be erradicated simply need to look at the retrospective officiating relating to QPR's red card appeal. This is such a bent and flawed process, if it wasn't so important to millions of fans it'd be almost laughable. The guy was a couple of yards offside, no question about it, so surely any match action after this must be seen as being irrelevant, but no, his red card is held up and he misses the next game. Unbelievable. And it's not the only case that can be used as evidence is it.
How many retrospective bans this season? Does this equate to the number of stamps/off the ball punches/late tackles/dives...etc...etc...etc we've all seen on TV replay shows?
IT'S BENT AF FUCK and my rant is over (for today)

Nearly fell off my chair reading this utter garbage http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17728281
How can you defend the indefensible, Clark Carlisle PFA should stand down after these comments, he is blatently a biased rag with his those comments.

I was flicking through the football gossip pages on BBC tv before and started to read this story on there..i had Hierhunters on at the time and there was a piece about some old boy who was a submariner during the 2nd world war and as i was half way through reading his comments about ashley young they played a clip of a submarine with the commander giving the orders `DIVE DIVE DIVE`
it was fkn appropriate i thought to myself.
ps carlisle can be added to the ever growing list of cunts.

This is one of the points I was making with regards to WHO reviews these dives/dodgy decisions etc (top of page 10), here, we have Clark Carlisle, the type of man who'd be a potential 'reviewer' of such incidents, a man renowed for his supposed intellect and knowledge of the game, yet even he comes out with a complete load of bollocks, how the fuck can we have faith and respect in such a system when this is what we could potentially be dealing with.
