Not as boring as you getting all high and mighty when the forces of darkness are linked with diving, especially as the players I've mentioned were or are the best exponents on the planet. If you can't take the heat, piss off out the kitchen. >:D< Oh by the way I've discovered emocions.

Marks for Gerrards dive at Anfield last season in CMPL when the opposition defender had the temerity to look at him in a nasty way. They broke the mould when they made the likes of Frank McClintock, Tony Adams, Steve Bould and Keown (he's got a monkeys head)

No, I think horse face Van Nistleroy counts as 10 as he was the biggest cheating c**nt that ever played in the prem, Van Persie, yeah right. Should have gone to spec savers.

Does talking bollocks come naturally to you or do you take lessons? As the overwhelming evidence on this forum proves, the majority of opinion points the finger at your players past and present being exponents of the double twist back flip with pike. Bergkamp and overmars struggled to stay on their feet becaiue they were constantly being hacked over by "good honest, professionl" journeymen who couldn't play football properly if their wretched lives depended on it. I love the comments most pundits come out with when Scholes (regularly) scythes someone down, "He can't tackle can he", well don't fcuking try then you ginger knob, if you're going to potentially injure someone!!!

Yes Pires was a diving cheat but you cannot put him in the same bracket as Ronaldo... but of course the undoubted master of diving in the box was Ruud Van Nistlerooy. No one, not even Ronaldo can touch the Dutchman. Ahh I forgot Teddy Sheringham.. now there was a player who had no shame in the box although most of his dirtiest work at Spurs.


We all know there are individuals who cheat and it's difficult to pin the blame on the Club they play for but when you have half a team of players who dive outside the box (rather than make a pass) because they have a master craftsman free kick taker then that is an entirely new level of cheating. I don't want to point any fingers here but not so many years ago the Club in question would have it's players manufacture 50-50 challenges on edge of opposition box so they could vault 2 footed in the air to try and win a free kick - they usually got the free kicks but this tactic suddenly disappeared circa 2003.

Oh, this is a suprise. I really thought I was going to get a well balanced opinion from you Matt.....not. What a shame you've stuck your blinkers on again so soon after the beginning of the season. I guess it's all downhill from here. :( Of course the only way we ever win games is by diving AND we send our scouts out looking for the best divers in the world. you two just crack me up.

      Assistance Dogs - Autism: any experiences?

      By JMK · Posted

      https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.

      Missing Cat

      By jeffersjd · Posted

      Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
