Gareth Bale

I presume that voting probably took place after the bite. If that's the case, then there's no way many people would vote for him as player of year, having taken that into account.

It's really not that pathetic.

Oh, it's a human being of the year award is it? Wasn't aware of that.





A journalist has admitted not voting for Suarez because he might get a bit of stick for it, that is pathetic whatever way you try and spin it just to disagree.

Eh?

See my post above.

I dunno. I'm not them. I didn't vote.

But you do accept that Souarez is practically unvotable for in light of the bite? It ruined everything for him.

You know the funny thing about Bale being booked 5 times for diving? It's in bold. He's not got away with it and he's been punished. It's practicaly the norm for the majority to get away with it without any punishment at all.

Oh I agree. There is no way Suarez could have won that vote, especially as it was voted for after the bite. I just find all these awards slightly ridiculous. They aren't really 'player' of the year awards as it's all to do with the person, likeability etc.

I know Bale didn't get away with it. But it's cheating in game to get an advantage. Why is that quality any more voteable. I just think these votes are a farce. Not going to get an ulcer about it though

I find them ridiculous too. But I find people flying into a temper tantrum over it even more ridiculous, not to mention, entertaining.

That's why I'm not going OTT on this today.

So he didn't get away with it

Bale is the worst diver the league have ever seen by a mile. Not even Drogba or Ronaldo comes close.

He gets away with it in almost every game. He gets booked for it in very few games when you could easily book him for diving in EVERY game.

[Chris]

Eh?

See my post above.

Yeah, and? It still doesn't change the fact someone changing his real views because he's frightened of a little bit of stick is pathetic.

[Arn]

Giggs is the proof that football have nothing to do with who win this stupid awards.

If you are the media darling then you win it.

Yes, that's my point. Well done. Apart from your contradiction in your last sentence.

So.. when you say, worst, I presume you say that because the dive is so bad the refs see it. As opposed to the worst cheat, whereby the best divers consistently get away with it. This is a minefield.

And that's that. Nothing more, nothijng less.

It's certainly not something anyone could accuse you of. Chill.

This man dives and cheats a lot but Bale is even worse. The day Bale leave the league that day football won and cheating and diving lost.

[Alex]

What about when Suarez leaves? He dives as much as Bale.

But what is "worst"?

Diving badly?

Diving frequently?

Diving and getting away with it (so actually the best)?

I think we need to appoint a panel of expert judges to assess each dive so that we can then truly quantify the best and worst divers each season. Maybe we could have an award for them. Although, the judging system itself is flawed in its subjectivity. So we'll just end up arguing over that too.

[Arn]

No he don't. Not even close. Suarez dives and cheats but he at least tries to stand up now, he still dives but not even close as often as the start of the season. Compare that to Bale who simply don't give a ****.

Dive after dive after dive after dive after dive even after his many bookings. He simply don't care.
