If Dean Saunders can't be arsed to learn the names of our superbly gifted players I'll be arsed if I can be bothered to remember who the **** he is. I suppose I should have typed it in blue as that is the rule for irony on this message board I believe.
I gave up on hating time wasting when players started taking the ball into the corners, something like 25 years ago. It happens. I don't necessarily agree with players doing it, even Fraser, in his own way. I just find it amusing that he does it so blatantly, yet largely gets away with it. He's almost turned it into an art form.
Don't like time wasting or diving. It's up to the refs to penalise it when the ball is out of play but if the ball is "live" then it isn't pretty but there are no marks for style in footy.
Thought about having £25 quid on that on Betfair, because you never know. But in truth, that's not much of a price. Should be at least 16s with our probable fixture congestion. Of course, if we fail to get out of our group in the EL then 10s for a top 4 finish wouldn't look too bad.
No problem with time wasting when the ball is live either....TAKE THE BALL INTO THE CORNER AND KEEP IT THERE, CROUCHIE. Still wake up screaming that.
I think that booking was unfair unless he'd already been warned which I didn't notice. In fact he waste less time when he was booked than he had on other occasions. I'm not saying that it wasn't deserved rather that by allowing him to do it all game, the referee has told him thats its ok.
Look at it another way, those points would have kept us up. Who knows what would have happened then. ML might have gone to Portsmouth
