Yes, won a penalty
One on one with the keeper but he'd took me out wide a bit so I knocked it round him then dived over his outstretched arms then slotted away the penalty.

Yes, and got the guy sent off. But he was being a cunt so I did it for good reason.

No I'm a centre back. I studded someone in the head for diving once though.

Nope, I hate like falling over so I don't slide tackle and i'm shit in goal cos i don't dive cos I don't want to hurt myself.

Not in a real match, but I always do it when playing with mates

No, I never go down unless I have lost my balance or been fouled badly enough that it has taken me down.
Guest- Guest
Yes, I do it often but only to avoid an incoming tackle.

Never have. Rather stay on my feet than dive, lose the ball, not get a free kick and get a goal against because I lost the ball. #dramaqueen
Truth, though. I don't see the need to dive, never felt like doing it aswell.

Nope. I probably wouldn't be able to think quick enough to make the decision to dive though.

It's never crossed my mind.

i never think to dive, once a guy did a leg breaker tackle on my knee though, thought i was injured, but afer 5 seconds I relised I was fine, but I couldnt just get back up and make it look like I dived, so of course I had to stay down and get medical treatment. I felt really embarrassed then though, even though noone knew I was faking it.

Wasn't in a proper serious game, but yeah.
Was running down the wing and someone came in behind me do I went down rather easily.

I have never dived and I never think of doing it during a game.
Watch out, we have a Pepe here.

I used to, when I thought it was cool. I would never do it now though, I've matured and grown up.

No, as someone said I'm not that quick minded in a football match, which is why I played RB probably. More ironically, I now play 6 a side

I don't even know how to dive bro, feel like I would make myself look like a dickhead doing so.

No, but I played centre back / central midfielder, I used to do dirty tackles though that were totally not aimed at the ball, broke one guys leg

ppl try to pull that on me all the time. it's funny because they always bounce right off me . i'm not even that big of a fella. 81kg, 178cm. i've had players twice my size bounce right off when they try to stand tackle me
we really need a 'football players chat' thread

No chance. I love football too much to be doing that sort of thing. Going down 'easy' is different though. But even then, I don't even do that.

Only once when I was upfront.
However, most of the time I play as a defensive midfielder, so I would never need to dive.
Also I hate diving.

anyone ever time-waste though? especially when the sun's going down and your team's up by 1 against an superior team
