Andy Crosby refused to shake Adam El Abd's hand at the end of the game, due to the latters play acting.

Good agressive player El Abd, but needs to cut out this part of his game; no one likes to see this embarrassing falling to the ground.

Fair play to Crosby I say.

El Abd is turning into a right twat! Went down like Robben on an ice skating rink and then amazing how quickly he shot up again.

Adam makes out he is a hard man yet goes down at will. He also chooses to involve himself in any contention he can get into.

Shame cause he is playing well this year.

Don't blame Crosby at all for ignoring El Abd - Adam should be ashamed of his behaviour.

Also thought Crosby did a great captains job in keeping his players away from the ref at the end - especially Sharp who could easily have managed to get himself sent off after the final whistle.

I think Crosby was also the only Scunny player to go over to their fans at the end of the game.

I saw Crosby throw Sharp away from our players, he was their best player today.

I saw Crosby have hold of Joe Gatting by the nuts when he was defending a free kick

What did Gatting do to upset Scunthorpe so much what with that and that lunge that got their player rightly sent off

I saw that it was similar to the Vinnie Jones incident with Gazza.

Was he trying to prove something to Gatting or trying to find the answer to a question.

His play acting is embarrassing. From the Sports Argus I understand Wilkins has re-iterated that El-Abd needs to get rid of this aspect of his game.
