Well done the Jocks, best I've seen them play for years. I wonder how The Faroe's would get on against Andora.
With regard to the feigning of injuries: has anyone ever suggested that if a player has to leave the field he has to stay off for a minimum period? Say 5 mins or so. Waddaya think?
Originally posted by ElleEffSeeeYes, ok. I get yr point. But when someone who has obviously broken a leg or two suddenly runs to the centre and asks to come back on . . . there surely has to be a way to stop him.
