      I think our PR dept should start to do some serious work here and stop being the Mr. Nice Guy, we have been too quite all along and allowed whoever against the club to trample all over us and I can't take that any longer. If stud marks are truly on Suarez body, get some pictures and get someone to write an article about it for the world to see. If we can't sort out matters in a diplomatic way then it will have to be done in an ugly manner. We should ask the FA and Pulis to give an opinion on those stud marks and see who's the real diver here.

      On Suarez dive, I don't think it's a dive at all, call me bias or whatever, it never looked like a dive in the first place, as I've said before it looks more like Suarez was too excited and  tried to get back on his feet too fast while his body is bending towards the ground and he fell over, simple as that and that happened to myself on numerous occassions.

      I'm all in favour of players being booked for diving but only if it's rescinded by the FA when/if video evidence shows it was a foul.  This can only happen when the FA get's rid of the stupid rule where if the referee says he saw an incident the FA can do f**k all about it.

      Maybe if the FA set up a panel of Referees, from all Leagues, to independantly look at all decisions from every game with a secret ballot at the end then we might start getting a non biased view of such events.

      Or the FA can award or take away points based on refereeing decisions.  Wouldn't it be great to have goals from non penalties be taken away along with the points from that fixture or vice versa goals awarded when penalties weren't given and points added if it changes the results.

      That would shake the game up a bit  ;D

      It'll never happen of course.

      It will happen one day, but that could be 23 years later when they look back and found how immoral the FA has been all these years, moreso against us.

      Anyway, here’s a fella I seen in The Paddock. As you do, like. pic.twitter.com/tipH90Lq



      A strapped on helmet camera!

      I pulled this from the "Anfield Problem" thread. This sounds crazy, but I wonder if refs should have some sort of camera attached to them not unlike this. That way, we can see what they see during the match and then we know whether their view on plays gives insight into their calls.

      Ok, I'll shut up now ;D

      Put an offical with instant replay up in a booth watching for things like egregious penalties/diving (not offisides etc) and give him the power to call out offenders yellow/red.

      A lot of the issues would go away.

      Won't happen whilst United have a board member within the FA.

      Nothing will work as long as Ferguson is alive, the current board of referees remain and the FA being Manc-loving and afraid of Ferguson.

      Mike Riley being the head who assigns referees to matches is says it all.
