The most ridiculous Player of the Year award I’ve ever seen. Craig yer a f*****n dud and I’m embarrassed that you used our facilities for your rehabilitation.
I created it. I found it highly amusing and felt the need to share.Canny believe this thread was even created, never mind still going.
Players have been claiming for phantom fouls and offsides for generations.
In the bin.
Jim Leighton Mark 2, an overated throbber of a manIt certainly wasn't his!
he was trying to grab the assistants attention, if you watch gordon closely hes pointing to the players just as the camera cuts away to jack celebratingHe was slapping his hand which tells you he was looking for a handball.
What happened with Aribo at the goal? He wasn't away celebrating with the players, he was over towards the linesman?
Noticed Hearts players doing it quite often today with throw ins, even when it was clear that the last touch came from them.
Knowing Robbie Neilson, I think it is fair to say that the players are told to claim for everything, just to sow that seed of doubt into a referee’s mind when it comes to legitimate 50/50 calls. To be fair, I think most players are told to do this. Getting that one minor call in your favour, or acting as if the decision is yours as a given, can win you a game. As happened with a throw in during the 1989 Cup Final for them.
Still made a tit of himself though, given that there was no suggestion of handball whatsoever, and the fact he didn’t really make much of an attempt at saving Jack’s shot.
He ran over the the linesman early in the 1st half moaning ref says nothing
Arfield/Goldson/Tav do it & Collum is giving them a talking to.
His time with peado FrC has a lasting effect obviously. Always cheated never defeated lolthink he was claiming offside but wasn't interfering his view
A half arsed claim and you'd be forgiven for chancing it, as you say it happens all the time.Gordon always sticks his hand up to claim something to the linesman / ref whenever someone scores into him.
If ye can be arsed try find clips from his time at the filth. Constantly claiming nonsense whenever he conceded a goal.
