tompo Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 For the benefit of any Swindon fans on this forum. Can you explain why Swindon appear to be cheating their way up the league? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...own/3500584.stm Of course it is easy to win when you are only playing 10 men. Any player who deliberately tries to get another player sent off deserves more than just a ban for a couple of matches. Have to feel sorry for the Blackpool player. He missed the LDV game at Wednesday but it could also have cost the club a lot of money if they had not got through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tompo Posted March 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Nice to see the FA actually doing something about play acting at last. Now how about picking on some Premiership players too.! Can't say as I'm surprised about Swindon. Look how many penalties they got with Sabin in the side. Its good to see he's falling over for Boston now. It does make you wonder if players are "coached" to cheat. Judging by our lack of penalties perhaps we should employ Swindon's diving coach.

SwindonBob Posted March 11, 2004 Report Share Posted March 11, 2004 Whilst I agree (as a Swindon fan) cheating deserves no place in our game unfortunately it has become part and parcel of the game. Incendently Igoe is not being charged for feigning injury but what he said to the press after the game. Igoe Charged - Wellens Comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Igoe should have kept his mouth shut. If you are going to cheat its not a good idea to talk top the press about it. You can hear the interview on 0117 934 3534.

tompo Posted March 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2004 eh?.. since when?.. easy? Apparently Igoe thought it was easier to play against 10 men - as he told the WDP. http://www.thisisbristol.com/displayNode.j...ntentPK=9188074 Asking the press to lie to get a player off? Hmm. Some may say that was also cheating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
