1. When a keeper storms out of his goal to contest a decision that's a considerable distance away. Reina is horrendous for this.
2. When a team are trying to keep the ball in the corner flag to hold on to a result. I have no problem with this, it's part of the game. They've got themselves in that position, they can do what they like. What really infuriates me is when the referee/linesman blow for a free kick for nothing to prevent a frustrated reckless challenge/because they dont think it's ethical.
3. The FA. I dont think an explanation is needed, but particularly their ineptness with disciplinary procedures and the completely absence of common sense.
4. Fans who cry about player wages. The players are at the top of their profession, people who reach that standard in their most professions are generally paid handsomely. It's a short career and the risks involved to get to the top in football are considerable. Those who have friends/family playing in a professional teams youth team will know what I'm talking about. Monday to Friday, 17:00-21:00, Saturday 09:00-18:00. Goodbye education and social life. There's a ridiculous amount of money involved in the game, it's idealistic to think all this could filter back to the fans so where else should the money go? - If not to the players, you'd suddenly find bribery allegations becoming common. What makes me sad is seeing certain ex-Everton legends having to struggle/work in their old age now because they weren't paid enough in their playing days.
5. Tony Pulis' Cap.
