If it was Stevie and Carra did it no one would have a problem. In fact our red goggles would probably disguise the fact that they got themselves sent off on purpose and we'd all be celebrating the fact that they'd both be yellow card free in the knockout stages.

I don't really get why people always suggest these things, that we are blind towards our own players/managers wrong-doings whenever it's for the greater good.
I'd hate to see our players try to get themselves red-carded for no matter the reason. It's not sportsmanship.
[/quote]Dirk Kuyt did it about 4 years ago. FACT.

Maybe so. You said 'all the time' and that was what I responded too.
I can understand why players would consider speculate on it as it's probably a silly rule. It was just so Mourinho-like to see the way Real's players were exploiting it last night.
You can defend them as much you want. In my opinion they should be given a fine and perhaps even a 1-game added suspension. Would serve them right. The Ajax-fans and players were obviously livid but at the same time only few understood what was going on.
It wasn't pretty.
[/quote]It does happen all the time. But this conversation was about you saying youd hate to see our lads doing it. They do, everyone does.
At least the espanol's did it with style.
