Listening to match other night the guy speaking on the match said ." He pulled him down a little bit " now he did or he did not but in this case he did .Are these guys afraid of saying what happened in case they maybe corrected ..Instead or saying summit did happened he said" a little bit" a few times.

A little tug on a shirt isn't enough for anyone to fall down like a bag of spuds yet amazingly some footballers do just that, so I would take the comment to mean that there was a small amount of holding but the player chose to go to ground to get a free kick rather than stay on his feet and carry on playing.

Sadly, only too common in todays game, bibble. If referees started booking these 'divers' instead of giving free kicks the practice would soon go away, in my opinion. Let's see how many of these divers get free kicks off Howard Webb.

It annoys me when commentators say "so and so's won a penalty" rather than "so and so's conceded a penalty. In my opinion it's impossible to win a penalty other than by cheating. In which case the "winner" should be booked.
