Now I'm all for playing fair and giving everyone a go, but our players are being too soft for their own good.
Twice tonight we put the ball out of play when a Fulham player was injured (and have done it several other times this season) when we had a clear opportunity to attack. The (unwritten) "rules" on this were supposed to have been changed so that play only gets stopped if the ref says so. How many other teams have put the ball out of play when we've had someone injured?
We can't afford to be all nice and "Ooh look, Johnny's fallen over, I'd best put the ball out for a throw so he can get some attention" - we've gotta be mean and tough and play every advantage we get. Ok, so you may feel a little guilty about taking advantage, but you don't feel guilty about diving, so why feel bad about legitimately playing-on?
