Sorry if this has been on before but haven't had time to review the board from Saturday.
But didn't JR in his incompetence just kick the floor instead of the ball, fell over then get up again. Didn't appeal for a penalty, throw a tantrum or anything.

Nothing made contact with him at all, that includes the floor, any player, the wind, a pidgeon. It doesn't really matter wether he appealed or not, when theres a dive of that magnitude it should be a booking wether he appeals or not

And a hefty fine
That was an abosutle disgrace.
In over 20 years of watching football, including at Stoke home and away and all the games on TV, i have never seen a dive like it.

That dive was an absolute joke! I was sitting in block 12 in the John Smiths, and you could see from there that he dived. It was like one of those comedy dives you see cartoon characters do. How he didn't get booked for it I'll never know. I suppose we can just be thankful the ref wasn't sufficiently fooled into giving, what would have been, a ridiculous penalty. He must have thought something had happened though, to not book him. Oh well he got his marching orders eventually.

How the ref didnt book him is mad!!!!!
That referee has booked over 100 players this season. That is an average 4 a game and he couldn't see that
CRAP
At least he got sent off. He is a diving bastard

Ok then, even if he did kick the floor, did he really kick it with that much force to send him leaping approx. five feet in the air?
