And what’s worse, is that this time it was a goalkeeper simulating to fool a referee. I am a keeper, and I have always been taught to just cop it. Keepers will always get hit, always screw up once or twice, and just have to take it on the chin. What keepers have to do is learn how to protect themselves, how to come for crosses properly (and Mitch doesn’t have a clue on the evidence of Saturday’s game) without getting into a tangle with attackers. If he does get hit, the thing is to make sure that in the next 50-50 or the next cross he comes out with everything and takes the opposition down as he gets the ball. That’s what I’ve always been taught to do, and this guy, what does he do? He grabs his face like a pussy (sorry, that’s what it was – I could be much harsher here) and rolls around like someone just cracked his jaw in three places. Absolute bollocks, and it also shows what a crap referee Breeze is (again).

Ok, so I’m pretty angry about this. I doubt I’ve seen anything this disgraceful since German goalkeeper Schumacher took out the French striker in the Quarter Final of the 1982 World Cup with the ball nowhere in sight (knocked past him by said striker).
