r.pearson - umm the first 4 letters spell the part of the body u sit on which is often used in a term such as ****hole...now u get it?

wenger always accuses other teams of diving and never likes having it dished back.

I thought it was a clear dive .. even the commentator said it was a bluddy lucky penalty as there was no contact and if there is no contact then what else could it be then a dive ... a strong breeze?

Whenever Nal lose - Wenger blames the pitch - the Linesmen - the Referee - the weather - etc etc ... Maybe he shouldnt train his lads to dive. Put Eduardo in the high diving team ... just a suggestion...Would you believe I am NOT an nal nor a Wenger fan? I cant give the proper name of the team as apparently its offensive and bad language !!!

"We won't accept the way we have been treated in this case for two reasons.

"I believe that you can debate whether it was a penalty or not. For me it's a witch-hunt that we see and not an objective judgement of a case.

"This charge implies there was intent and a desire to cheat the referee.

"Having watched the pictures again there was nothing conclusive.

"It singles out a player in Europe to be a cheat and that is not acceptable.

"UEFA has taken action that is not defendable."

UEFA have banned *** nal striker Eduardo for two European matches for diving in last week's Champions League play-off second leg against Celtic.
UEFA announced today that their control and disciplinary body had suspended the Croatian international "for deceiving the referee".

Eduardo will miss the Gunners' matches away at Standard Liege on September 16 and the Emirates showdown with Olympiakos on September 29.

Boss *** ne Wenger has three days to lodge an appeal against the ban.

Wenger was fuming last Friday after hearing that his striker was to be charged, slamming the decision as being a "complete disgrace".

Wenger said: "I find it a complete disgrace and unacceptable.

*** NAL will fight to clear Eduardo's name after UEFA branded him a cheat.
Europe's governing body banned the striker for two games after finding him guilty of 'deceiving the referee' by diving to win a penalty during last week's Champions League qualifier against Celtic.


Eduardo is banned for *** nal's first two Champions League games against Standard Liege and Olympiakos.


But the Gunners are convinced the Croat has not been given a fair hearing and are ready to appeal.


A club statement read: "We are disappointed with UEFA's decision.


"We believe it is imperative UEFA's explanation for its decision provides clear and comprehensive standards that will be consistently enforced."


Croatia boss Slaven Bilic last night slammed Eduardo's dive ban as 'a disgrace'.


Bilic - who ironically dived to get Laurent Blanc sent off in the 1998 World Cup semi-final - said: "This is a disgrace.


"We are talking about a player who is a role model of a sportsman.


"I simply cannot understand how he can be punished."
