The soccer elitists here in India were blaming cricket to be full of cheats now this has to be a major blow to their egos.In India even if the viewers don't play soccer these guys go discussing on and on about EPL and their top 5 teams only they have such limited knowledge about the rest which makes them bandwagon supporters,gawd when they start chanting those club anthems it makes me cringe thinking are these guys even Indians.
Thank you north eastern players you guys are truly Indian soccer's shaan its really unfortunate you are a part of India.
mostly the referees favor the Man U team in many matches u can observe this, giving extra injury time if they are drawn or a goal down. So it is quite probable
All you see in football are matchfixing, diving, and some handballing by a player. And the saddest thing is that kids in India love to watch European clubs and try to wear manchester t shirts, inspite of no indian represenation. Lets salute our heroes like TEndulkar, binra and Sania, who have stood for decency and fair play, unlike todays footballers who are cheats.

He's generalising things. the clubs involved in the scands are some B C grade clubs from germany, turkey and Belgium etc. Cricket too is not devoid of match fixing, ball tampering and racism. Don't try to belittle a global game by comparing it with a nine-nation sports.. I pray and hope your grandson's entry into the Indian team will not be spoiled by the presence of your hero Tendulkar..

If you guys can generalise things on cricket, why not football? I agree, there was match fixing in cricket. But everyone after that was generalising fixing to all cricketers in the team without realising that there were cricketers who gave their 110%. Wasn't that wrong? If that is not wrong, they what sandeep said was not wrong as well...
