Rodgers in dive threat

http://m.guardian.co.uk/football/2012/sep/27/brendan-rodgers-liverpool-luis-suarez?cat=football&type=article

Om the suarez penalty against united, I thought there was contact but the obvious exaggeration of the fall and the unneeded head flick made it look unnatural. If its a penalty its a penalty you dont need to emphasise it and that is why I dont think it was given.

It seems as if the pressure is starting to get to BR which is a shame these comments should not be made public as it will most likely backfire big time.

leiva its a contact sport, it was not a foul and most certainly not worthy of the theatrics that followed as if he has had his leg ripped off by a hungry zombie

Redman

Yeah, you hear time and time again that players want consistency from the ref. If we had that we would see a better game than we do today. Frankly I don't blame players for 'winning' a pen if the ref cant tell when a player has been fouled trying to stay on his feet.

Rodwell's trailing leg caught Suarez, with his studs up....thats a straight red from what i know.

Im not saying what Suarez did was right but it was a red

Lucas...what utter tosh, backed up by the FA to overrule the decision.

Unless Everton get united style treatment from a corrupt FA ?

===================================
Hmm. The FA. Not the best organisation to use to make any point.
Absolute shambles.

"backed up by the FA to overrule the decision."

Did they over-rule the decision?
I thought they just reduced the ban to 1 match

Barça have lodged a complaint with UEFA as they understand these statements as an attempt by Liverpool to tap up Sergio Busquets.

Perhaps Luis hasn't cottoned on to the exaggerate-a-dive-and-you-get-nothing credo from the refs. Somebody should tell him.
