Jamie Vardy never did anything to you but you called him a chavvy cunt. :/

Why should I chill out if you're going to try and make a personal attack on me? 

Stop taking everything so serious. I'm off back to Reddit anyway, knew their was a reason I stopped posting on here. Too many thin-skinned posters on here...

[Baddar]

Let's all be friends. Vardy is a dick, though.

Shouldn't have been a red. Was a coming together, so I also don't think it was a penalty. There can be neither given.

Gazz had it right though - if it wasn't Vardy, the non-Leicester response would have been different.

Its weird to actually see a player sent off for diving

I know it was a second yellow, but I'm struggling to recall anyone ever getting their second yellow for that. Absolutely correct decision though. I'm on the Leicester bandwagon, but I'm a bigger fan of the rules of association football.

Judge not lest ye be judged, baddor

All I did was call you out on you trying to call me a cunt or a chav or both. 
All i pointed out was that I've never said anything personal about you.

If you call that thin-skinned then you need to give your head a wobble. See ya later though. Nice knowing you.

I'm sure I've seen someone getting a second yellow for diving but I can't remember who what or where. Brave call from the ref tho.

He threw himself forward trying to win a pen.

If it was Ashley Young or Rooney I'm sure the reaction would have been similar.

Err, what? What does my dog have to do with this? :@

Ashley Young has never been sent off for it, has he? I'm sure It's always been his first yellow.

[Baddar]

He is a noted diving bastard though.

As Gazz said, there was a tangle of legs. Arguably, the defender caught Vardy without touching the ball, so you could easily make an argument for a penalty. He looked for the contact, but the contact was there - it isn't a million miles different from players dragging their feet when goalies dive out.

It was a coming together because Vardy stepped in front of Ogbonna so there was always going to be a coming together. He tried to con the ref, win a pen and got a yellow. And if that was literally any other player (apart from a Liverpool player because I'd be biased) then I'd be saying that was a dive and a yellow card. 

Ashley Young had a run of doing it and everyone was having a go at him for diving. 

It has nothing to do with it being Vardy or Leicester. 

[Baddar]

Pen! 

[stokeriño]

Fuck off West Ham

[Baddar]

Huth's in the first half was a clearer pen. And that one led to a goal. 1-1, Carroll!

He did what a majority of players do to get freekicks and penalties. If the player is coming in, and you get in between them and the ball, it is they who has to make sure they don't make contact with you. I'm a defender, and that is basic 101.
