alwaysthereinspirit Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Like to give Kudos to both Templeton to Skacel for getting up very quickly after being fouled Saturday. Neither one even looked at the ref for anything other than what was due them. The animal got booked for the Templeton tackle and Skacel basically never broke stride getting back in the play. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubyruby Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Didnt lafferty attempt to dive in the box.surprised that naismith didnt try that in added time thats his usual party piece. Since miko left we have actually seen who the real cons are and yet the media dont make such a big thing of it.The refs dont either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the same game that Miko dived against Scotland I recall Gary O'Connor throwing himself on the ground when nobody was within about a yard of him. It's a joke.

Well done. Gordon Smith, formerly of the sfa, now back with the GBC was always on the case of so called HMFC divers and Miko in particular but he seems somewhat shy when it comes to shaming Rangers shower of cheats, by the way totaly agree with you on our players-big cheer for them.

IMA MAROON Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Looked like a penalty when Rudi when down in the box seconds before we scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merse Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Skacel was rolling about pretending to be injured at one stage when there was clearly nothing wrong with him tbf. Waited a minute and realised he wasn't getting anything that hopped to his feet and ran away freely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCulloch had a fair bash at it as well, not sure if you're getting them mixed up, but I wouldn't be surprised if you weren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubyruby Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 They are all the same when it comes to diving.As mentioned in a previous post Gary o'connor did the same as miko,dont recall darren fletcher having a pop at HIM about it.Every man and their dog had something to say about miko and it wasnt pleasant. Some refs are getting wise to it but not all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a dive before the goal too I'm not that bothered though, it's become part of the game now. Everyone does it, even us (blatantly) so there's no point moaning when it goes against us.

jambojim1986 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 There is a difference between diving, and taking a foul as opposed to staying on your feet and ending up with nothing. I would say bawbag Naismith is guilty of the former, Temps the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Dover Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Not so much for diving but 'looking to go down' is a right trait of Naismith's I don't recall if he ever had great pace, prior to his long injury lay off, but nowadays you'll see that as soon as he is caught by an opposing player ( side by side ) he knows the games up and will just keel forward and take the foul that he'll usually get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
