I dived to get the Pen he says

"I had a laugh and a joke with the referee..."
Pretty unprofessional by the ref, if i was a Leeds fan i would be fuming.

Most players dive, people hate players who dive against your team, but brush it under the carpet when their own player dives. Diving is part of football and happens it pretty much every game, and it will be in the game for a long time until the authorities take drastic action which is pretty unlikely.

First one was touch and go as to whether there was contact. We couldn't see anything from the other end of the pitch (perfect view of the Gradel pen). It wasn't given anyway so I'm not overly bothered. The one given was a penalty, although a soft one.
