    Lafferty should have been booked for that tackle anyway.

    Absolutely blatant cheating and then he winks to the bench - sounds like this was the game plan


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    Completely agree. Disgusting behavious IMO, and i have no doubt the opinion of the VAST MAJORITY OF BEARS.

    Typically though, weve been ****e since then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    Looks like the linesmans just evened things up there though.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,957 ✭✭✭The Volt

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear

    thats embarrasing tbh .blatant cheating


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,951 ✭✭✭DSB


    Thats absolutely terrible, hopefully he does get a ban. But is this really worse than someone like Drogba or Ronaldo who dives from someone putting in an innocent tackle with no contact? At least in this instance, the other guy was squaring upto him anyway, so hardly innocent. Not defending the lad for a minute, but I don't think this is as bad as the Drogbaesque stuff we see on a weekly basis.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 41,926 ✭✭✭✭_blank_


    What a cheat.

    The thread title is genius too, well done OP :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    It is worse...especially considering its lafferty who put HIS head in.

    1-0 OG from an aberdeen player....20 minutes to score 4 more :pac:

    They both put their head in. Its a disgusting thing to do, but its no worse than the disgusting things we see on a weekly basis.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,354 ✭✭✭✭A Dub in Glasgo


    Do those disgusting things you see on a weekly basis result in a player getting sent off?

    TBH i dont understand how the linesman missed it in all honesty.

    Thats why i think he got involved in the Bougherra incident.

    Regularly, the player innocently tackling can quite often be the last man. At least the good thing to come out of this, is Lafferty will never be given the benefit of the doubt by refs ever again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    2-1....15 minutes to get 4...:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,014 ✭✭✭Eirebear


    Bizzarre game, 3 points not good enough after losing that stupid stupid goal.

    C'mon the Hibees (i hate saying that)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,056 ✭✭✭applehunter


    Rangers were 2-0 up and still coulndt get the ball down and play.

    The SFA should come down hard on the lanky fella. What a fanny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,275 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    What an absolute cnut


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,110 ✭✭✭Y2J_MUFC


    Disgrace. If the SFA have anything about them, he'll receive a nice lengthy ban. 10 games should do the trick. :)

    Its wrong but be honest, would you not want to gain any advantage possible in such a close title race?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 850 ✭✭✭Instant Karma

    Absolutely not, I would never want a player in a team I supported or played with to cheat in order to infulence the result of a game. It's a sport and should be played with a sportsmanlike attitude, theres no place for gamesmanship.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Its wrong but be honest, would you not want to gain any advantage possible in such a close title race?

    I dont. I have criticised any Liverpool player in the match threads and the superthread when the have dived.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,704 ✭✭✭Broxi_Bear_Eire


    Its wrong but be honest, would you not want to gain any advantage possible in such a close title race?

    No as a Rangers fan of many years I was disgusted by his actions are were the majority of Gers fans I have spoken to.

    If we bring the game down to this level and accept it we are as well just shutting up shop


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,354 ✭✭✭✭A Dub in Glasgo

    You mean cheat to get the title? No thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Being part of a team in general I know the importance of a win, not to menion a Scottish title that can lead to a Champion's League qualification match.

    Sorry if the truth hurts but this is the real world. Look at all the diving in football. It is now a part of the sport. It wins matches unfortunately and it won't change soon

    theres diving and diving that today was an embarrassment to the Club and majority of Rangers fans.

    P.S. if thats your attitude I would not want you in any team of mine


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,833 ✭✭✭✭28064212


    There is a huge difference between someone going down easily under an ill-advised challenge to gain a free or penalty for your team, and taking such a blatant dive for no other reason than to get a player of the opposing team sent off. It is an absolutely disgusting thing to have done, and the SPL should come down hard on him

    Thats because you want to think that all players are fair and doing what is best for the sport. That doesn't happen nowadays and the most predatorious will be the most sucessful.
