[Albion] Players waving an imaginary card

[Bozza]

What's your take?

 

[Rodney Thomas]

Perhaps we could add a "Only if the player is rugby tackled" option?

Anyways, it's still better than surrounding the ref and verbal abuse that you see much more frequently.

 

[Icy Gull]

I don’t like it but when the ref has already ignored a couple of thuggish acts, totally acceptable

Poll needs a “sometimes” option

 

[dangull]

Is that a dig at Mitoma

 

[Swansman]

Don't like it, but no biggie.

 

[pocketseagull]

tbf I don't care if there's a legitimate foul

 

[Popeye]

Well it was a clear foul tbf but yes I can see why people would not like it. Something in a similar vein that players the world over do that somewhat irritates me is when players stop running full stop just to raise their hands looking for an offside call. Ref doesn't need you to do that.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

I can’t get over excited either way. I don’t like managers doing it mind.

 

[SteveU]

Terrible thing to do from any player, hate it more when our players do it.

Reeks of desperation and lacks class.

 

[Sheebo]

In defence of Mitoma I think it was very much a split second decision type thing and almost an instant reaction type thing. Don’t like it though.

 

[Zeberdi]

Probably not.

But probably not justified for VAR to award imaginary penalties either

 

[Guinness Boy]

Not a great look but understandable if you don’t speak the same language as the ref.

I bet players say “that’s a card ref” or “send him off” all the time

 

[The Seagull]

I hate it ! I thought there was once a rule whereby if you did this you got a yellow card ?

 

[Eric the meek]

What's your take?

I've got to be honest.

When it's our player doing it, especially after such a bleedin obvious red, it's OK. But if it's an opposing player doing it, he's a ****.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

It’s just not cricket old boy.

 

[VAL1850]

He's probably learnt his lesson from feedback against it plus Roberto will have a say, learnt a lesson, won't do it again, move on....

 

[tronnogull]

Much worse than ' no need for it ' it's completely cringeworthy.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

It's not big and it's not clever.

 

[Frutos]

Don't like it - whether its our player or not makes no difference to that.

 

[Lenny Rider]

Sorry as bad as diving or even spitting at an opponent, but maybe I’m out of step with some of the young bucks on here
