Umm, funny that the bad guys shown on the BBC happen to be Portugal. The English sure hold a grudge. No mention of the Owen dive a couple years ago nor the quote by Lineker himself that it is part of the modern game. And these were the same commentators complaining a week earlier that the referees are handling out yellow cards like confetti. I don't like it, but unless we accept dozens of bookings in a game it is here to stay. Stuart __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
