Dear Wayne Rooney,
Disgust and disappointment…That’s how I feel today as I watch you embrace the cheating culture of diving in highlights of Saturday’s game with Aston Villa.
Why did you do it? You are English, man! This isn’t how you were raised.
Not only was it a pathetic attempt to deceive and cheat, it could have denied your team a goal. You could have made that ball at the line and crossed it in front of goal. Instead of pushing yourself to possible greatness, you flopped on the floor like a flailing flounder. You should have been sent off, maybe that would help you to see what a tit you were. What a waste of awesome talent. To risk your reputation in such a manner. Not the first time is it? Just 2 months ago you told the world you don’t dive; what a joke that seems like now. Last year you even apologized for a dive against Villareal, something the English people saw as recognition of a stupid mistake. And yet, you’ve gone and made it again.
Did you learn that revolting and shameless maneuver from Ronaldo? Have you been watching Messi nosedive at the Nou Camp? Whatever it is, it needs to stop NOW. Us English folk don’t want to win by cheating, we take the high ground in the face of that crap. We have been wronged by cheating in the past and there is not one single English man woman or child who finds it acceptable.
Do you want to be one of the worlds best Wayne? Or just another Andy Johnson, featured in a collection of YouTube video’s cut to the Benny Hill theme music? A top entry when someone Googles ‘dive’. Your manager has told you and the fans don’t want it so why did you do it? Are you f*cking stupid? How about your new born child left with the legacy of a cheater? Want that? If you were my son, I would suspend you from the house for such an shameful act. As a fan of your talents and believer of your importance to England in the next World Cup, I truly hope FIFA (or the FA) ban and fine you for bringing the game into disrepute. Teach you a lesson.
Next year you will be part of the England team in South Africa, a key part of the puzzle. Pull that s**t there and get sent off, see what English people think then. Remember Beckham in 98? Well do it for England and you’ll likely need an underground bunker to hide in. We don’t want to win it cheating. Let’s leave that to Maradona and Henry shall we? Act like an honest English professional and make your people proud, not humiliated.
Knock it off!
Yours disgusted,
Ned.
P.S Tell your mate Gerrard to knock it off as well.
And here it is for those who missed it…
Shame it wasn’t the FSC feed where the color guy immediately said it was a shocking decision and that you don’t have to punish people for diving. Actually, it’s a rule, dickhead.
@Georger: Yeah, I don’t remember who that was but he should be shamed, fined, and banned, too.
Dear Ned,
Thank you for this post. It made me smile.
Thanks again,
Keith
Clever little f**ker stays up for the first challenge outside the box too.
and Georger, I believe they prefer to be called “African Americans” now.
/stupid
@jape
If he’d have stayed up and played a pass, we’d be talking about how awesome it was, especially if it led to a shot on goal. What a dick. I am truly disappointed.
Ned, I think Luke Young (who I wish would unretire from international play, as he’d certainly get the #2 shirt from Capello next Summer) diverted him enough by stepping in that that goes out for a goal kick even without the wicked ahhsome archer’s bow.
@Keith, maybe but i keep seeing the real time play and feel he could have made it, he was at full pelt.
F**k you Keith!
You are English, man! This isn’t how you were raised.
True. He was raised to sky a PK in the round of 16, sending England home cup-less again.
I think he might have gotten a toe on it, but I doubt, even at full bore, he’s able to wrap his foot around the ball and send it in to the box.
And Georger, it’s not my fault Glen Johnson is a pants defender. Do I expect Johnson to have more goals and assists? Sure. But do I trust him against world class wingers? Hell and no.
leave rooney and gerrard out of SA next summer Rooney will get a red, and Gerrard has lost a step or eight; Jermaine Defoe and Agbonlahor strikers lennon and walcott wingers, johnson outside back,, people won’t know what hit them.
At least it’s not the final, PR
Can Walcott play from a stretcher?
Keith: As much s**t as Baggio takes for missing that PK, it probably wouldn’t have made much difference. Pagliuca would still have had to save the next Brazilian PK just to keep the Italians alive.
“leave rooney and gerrard out of SA next summer Rooney will get a red, and Gerrard has lost a step or eight; Jermaine Defoe and Agbonlahor strikers lennon and walcott wingers, johnson outside back,, people won’t know what hit them.”
Indeed people will not know what hit them, as the shock of America winning the group and Slovakia coming in second would be truly stunning.
I rather like the drawn version of it.
Gerrard’s take down in the box this Sunday was not a dive, shouldn’t categorize him with Rooney for the weekend.
i hope that’s true Georger being that i’m an american, but england will be deep this year if a English starter goes down they have defoe or Heskey, if another striker goes down they have agbonlahor, if another striker goes down they have crouch, if his big goofy ass goes down they have michael owen, same kind of situation at mid.. in stark contrast the US striker depth chart is 1. Altidore 2. Ching 3. connor casey….ughh
If Rooney gets hurt or, more likely, red carded for being a petulant baby, England are out.
Meh, Georger, I disagree. France won in 1998 without Zidane for much of the tournament.
