Why don't you just say, they both cheated to get penalties, until
People stop make excuses we will always have these cheats ruining our game. It really makes my blood boil that managers back up the players who cheat. Before you say it, yes we have had our divers in Barnes and Buckley. Just can't understand ref falling for it when we can all see that a small touch is not enough to make a strong man go down. As someone said you get more knocks on a train or supermarket and we stay on our feet. It's pure cheating 100%. Not having a go at Palace, but you do have some serial offenders, backed up by the yellow cards for simulation, but loads of teams do it. When I played in the 80/90's we had a player who dived for a pen and he was taken off and dropped for the next game and I played a good standard in senior football. It would be nice if Pardew dropped Bolaise and the same with Benteke, do you think it will happen? No they are Hero's to their fans, is that right?

Unfortunately, that's modern football for you, and yes, it is cheating.
Players won't be dropped, they are "encouraged" to go down under minimal contact.

Agree, and think that is wrong. It would nice if a manager 'came out' and said he would fine or drop players and not just lip service. Palace deserved the win last night and it should never had got to a dive for a penalty to win the game.

Fining and dropping players will never happen, not in the higher levels of football at least.
Kids see this ,and copy their heroes on a Saturday morning.maybe that's where it needs nipping in the bud ?

You'll never iron that out of Zaha's game but at the very least Parish could haul Soare and Hennessey before an industrial tribunal. The charge? Masquerading as Premier League footballers.

Indeed, Soare looked like he should be wearing massive shoes, sporting a big red nose and driving a car that constantly popped with the doors falling off.

Getting back to more important matters, WCP or The Major ?
I prefer Major, he could be quite humorous at times, whereas WCP does get a bit repetitive.
Maybe time to sort out a new identity ?

He could do with a upgrade tbh . The wcp guise is not working anymore and I think he knows this so it will be interesting what character he produces next .

Running the old persona into the ground and then coming back under a new name with the same ethics.

Reminds me of Palace.

The major was funny. Particularly the post he did after the St Patrick's day massacre.
