Ruud Van Nistelrooy looks embarrassed after cheating at Ipswich



By Myles Palmer

NEVER, never, never have I seen such a blatant dive in a match between two Premiership teams.

Van Nistelrooy dashed between two defenders and couldn’t reach the ball, so he threw himself to the deck.

This is a player I used to respect!

RUUD, YOU ARE A CREEP !

GO BACK TO TULIPLAND !

So glad you won’t be at the World Cup. You don’t deserve to be there.

The referee Rob Styles was the only man in the gound who thought it was a penalty.

Ruud, you looked embarrassed.You looked very embarrassed.

You knew that contact,if any, was minimal and you did NOT expect a penalty to be given.

You scored from the spot and I switched off in disgust and I’m now going upstairs to shave and change and go to a party.

Ipswich’s relegation means Bolton are safe.

SPURS did not cheat this morning when Gus Poyet’s goal surprisingly beat Liverpool, who were too workmanlike.

Those lovely Lillywhites made some tasty chances and knocked the ball around really well at times, bless ’em.
