Ashley Young

has become Man United's 'diving' expert. Such a shame from a talented player.,

Exactly why I hate modern football.

Young had already been booked once for deliberately leaving his leg behind so he managed to "trip" over the defenders leg. Luckily the ref saw it as such and booked him.

For the "penalty" offence he deliberately lent into the player, causing them both to tumble. It started outside the box anyway.

The other player did NOT bring him down, it was NOT a penalty, and it was NOT a sending off.

Now a game that was evenly balanced has a second half where one team is in the lead when they should not be, and the team behind now have to play the second half with 10 men.

Totally unjust. I am not a Palace or Man U fan, just a football fan who wants to see fair play.

VHG - that's a good analysis.

Always seems to happen at Old Trafford.

Obviously now Fergie's gone Ashley Young thinks its fine to start diving again.I am like VHG and find this modern football a bit of a bore.
