      Strange piece of play that led to the penalty and I dunno if it was a pen or not but what it wasn't was a dive (I hope I'm thinking of the same foul as you) SG was knocked flying and like Stevie said anywhere else on the field it was a foul and so it must have been a pen so how could he dive.....

      i couldn't give a sh*t if he dives or not.  when he's on the pitch he gives 100% to win the game for us.  if that involves taking the odd tumble here and there, thats fine by me.

      lets not kid ourselves here, 99.9% of players have taken a dive at some stage or another, it's just some are more prone to it than others, namely that greasy knob playing for the scum.

      Actually who can rasie a finger on Gerrard,not blues because Drogba does it all the time not mancs because Ronaldo does it all the time not gunners,well who even cares if they do complain they are not even competing for the title.

      I would still not classify Gerrard's falls as dives because there is always some contact involved & maybe he goes down too easily sometimes but he has a right to do so if the opponent does make contact with him.

      Loss of respect??For the same guy who won us CL & FA cup almost single-handedly.For the same guy who refused
      to join the greener grass on the other side & stuck with us through our highs & lows.For the same guy who would very well go down in anfield books as one of the best ever if not the best.I cant do that maybe you could.

      Its all horseshit mate the only context you can use in the respect and Steven Gerrard situation is just how high does your respect go? The lad would give everything for LFC that is for starters,his contribution cannot be measured, respect doesn't even cover it.
