Do we get any money for red cards for Ollie?

I just watched the highlights. Definite pen for United and definite dive from Ollie sadly.

I remember him doing the same at Brentford, I think either near end of season or a play off game (Against Leeds?), Thought he got rid of that part of his game, He doesn't need to dive.

No-one needs to dive. What frustrates me is when a forward is clipped and tries to stay up and manages to stay on his feet but nothing comes of the move the ref never gives a penalty. If they go down its a pen all day long so I don't blame players for going down if they're touched. This happened to Gabriel Jesus a few weeks back.

This.

It needs sorting out.

I wish the ref would give yellow/red cards to players rolling around holding feigning injury trying to get a player sent off.

I wish referees would issue yellow cards for this latest fad that keepers have cottoned on to: Clutching the ball to their chest and deliberately going to ground to waste time! Referee's should start the six second rule for keepers from the time a keeper falls flat like that! Barrows keeper was taking up 10-12 seconds before releasing the ball, if you include that caper!

I dont think the 6 second rule still exists Pete.

If it does then its broken many times every game.

Keepers have been doing that for years. If it's a latest fad it's been going on for thirty odd years.
