"Professionalism" will never go away no matter how much technology they drag into the game.
Oh and by the way, if one of our players had done something similar to Ivan Toney and we had beaten Middlesbrough, some of the moral arbiters on here would probably have hailed it as a stroke of genius 🙂
Cheating a stroke of genius Ermm ok then.
So if we have to win the last game of the season and opposition player dives and wins a penalty you will just laugh and say oh well it’s part of the game bless the little rascal it’s just professionalism.
Of course you would mellow.
And why are we moral arbiters we’re just saying it’s cheating.
Do you not think it’s cheating mellow?
