"Blood-Gate"?

I think a big deal has been made over it. He broke the rules so it is cheating but they've not fixed the game they just tried to gain an advantage and it didn't work. I don't see much difference between this and a footballer diving to get a penalty apart from the OTT aftermath.

Rarely have I ever seen sanctimonious self-righteous claptrap of these proportions.

What next ? Six month bans for feigning injury or simulation/diving.

I am not saying BTW that there aren't players who were not scared into doing something like this by their club.
As this whole saga shows; it's a corrupt sport so some players could well have been bullied into doing something like this.

This player though, judging from his actions, definitely wasn't and should have received a much harsher punishment.

TBH, I hope the game cleans itsself up...or dies the painful death it deserves if it continues like this.

With respect, ie not much at all, this is completely bananas

A corrupt sport? die the painful death it deserves?


All sports have varying degrees of unsporting conduct, pushing rules to the edge and over etc etc.

To use language like you have used about a sport actually populated by a vast majority of extremely sportsmanlike players is laughable

PS. Rarely have I ever seen a deeper hole dug either.

He's a tall fella - he needs a big hole.  He's nearly there though...
