And in 2009 Eduardo took a dive v Celtic and it was overturned. You win some you lose some

The amount of times Drogba used to go down as if he was shot is unbelievable and for a lump of a guy like him it was disgusting.

Why are Arsenal fans such bloody cry babies?

The refs cheat us
The fixture computer cheats us
The FA hate us
The media hate us

Get a grip.

Not really pal, hence why you are getting some very well measured posters agreeing. It's a simple fact arsenal get far fewer decisions than any of their top 6 rivals. Just drop the childishness and see what's happening. Do you think it was a dive? Do you think we should have had at least one pen in the stoke game? The obvious answer is yes. These decisions have directly caused the loss of points. It's time to wake up
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry but that's total bollox, I've been reading gooners on here for years moaning that there's some sort of FA and media conspiracy against you. Total deluded crybaby nonsense. All teams have things go for them or against them.

He made the most of it no doubt about that, but there was a bit of contact. If that's up the other end and Arsenal don't get a pen you'd be saying that was a conspiracy against you instead.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What contact? The only contact was halfway through the dive his leg touched bellerins. Like graham poll said, definite dive not even a smidgen of debate. But becssuee it's arsenal you get the likes of yourself mcmanaman and savage condoning it and saying arsenal deserve it. If it happened other end? It never happens other end pal, we get by far the least penalties of any top six sides, look at the stats yourself if you need to.

There is a different treatment of arsenal then any other team in the league. Players like ozil never win fouls because he is perceived to be weak and lazy. We conceded a goal last year from a %100 foul agaisnt him but nothing was said or given. It plays into the impression given about arsenal being weak. A perfect example is of the forearm smash that alonso made agaisnt bellerin last season when they beat us at the bridge. He knocks bellerin cold with his forearm and then scores a header. 100% foul but becssuee it plays into the weak arsenal narrative nothing given and pundits and journos say fair decision. Yet I see Carroll sent off for similar on weekend. There are dozens of examples like this pal I could go on all night

Its been reported that the head of the refs union hates us, as did the previous one and so does the head of BBC Sport according to Gary Linekar a few years ago.

But the real evidence that Arsenal get treated differently is the umber of games were we have had similar incidents at both ends and both decisions go against us. This happens regularly. And then decisions like the dive by Watford going against us so regularly, but we far are more likely not to get stonewall penalties than get soft ones.

Surely if people think that was a foul must also think that challenge on Welbeck was also a pen after all the.player didn't win the ball and knocked Welbeck over.

If that was a foul then 10 pens should be given a game, fed up of this nonsense that contact (no matter how minimal) = pen according to many. It's like people want the game to become like facking netball.

Right, so that's one example. If we, as Arsenal fans, really didn't have an leg to stand on, you'd have plenty more, no?

I'll wait...

Dude, you realise you have to go 10 years back to collect 4 dives for the whole team. Dele Alli dive on youtube gives you more than 10 awful dives just on the first page. Arsenal is probably not the first name that comes to mind when you talk about cheating.

Ace clearly doesn't read other boards after defeats. There are meltdowns everywhere, even the ghost town City board has people like Boris moaning about conspiracies.

I reckon me concede more to dives every season than you these 4 examples which go back to Pires who left the club in 2006, over 11 years ago. And its not just that we concede decisions to dices but the effect of them. The Invincibles run was ended by one of the most blatant dives I have ever seen. Still hate Rooney for that the cheating little cant.

Plus it doesn't go the other way around. Just see the number of penalties given to the top 6 sides. It's simply not right.

You have enough divers in your side. Didn't see Wenger ever condone a single one. Ever. Then he moans when it goes against him. And you lot are in denial if you think it's one dive or 4 in 10 years. Your sxxt smells as bad as everyone else's so don't make out you're hard done by anymore than any other club.

Non Arsenal fans creating fantasy alternative timelines again, these allegations are preposterous.

Which is why we're waiting for the evidence. Saying we're making it up doesn't make it so.
