Has it ever crossed your mind that the reason it might appear like foreigners cheat more than homegrown players is because the media portray it that way? God forbid a good young English gentleman was portrayed as a cheat infront of millions of viewers worldwide.... I have been following LFC for over 2 decades and the league in general. The amount of cheating going on is the same, the media coverage of it is much greater though. Obviously the English media will not portray one of their own as a cheat.
I think your views are twisted and unfounded but you are entitled to them. my views are not unfounded and twisted as u say, I have been watching the Club for five decades so I have gradually seen the cheating and deceiving coming into the game longer than you have. I can remember back in the 70s when foreign opposition used to come to Anfield and try to [oops] the ref with theatrics and dives, the Old Kop used to laugh and cheer because it was so blatent. If you look at the worst cheats in football you would be lucky to get an English player in the top 10 with players like Ronaldo, Klinsman, Drogba, Limpar, Robben, Ribery, Di Maria, Robinho, Pires, Neymar, Diouf, Ginola, Boniek, Rovaldo and Nani all featuring heavily in people's top cheats and divers lists, no coincidence they are all foreign. Hmmm, Neymar? Can you really judge a player who plays thousands of miles away and had never set foot in the European game let alone the English game? I do understand where you come from, but cheating is match fixing and performance enhancing drugs, i dont think what football players do is even classes as cheating as if it was all sportsmen and women would be classes as cheats, its a fact that every single sportsman from Tiger Woods and Floyd Mayweather to Michael Schumacher and Lionel Messi use every single flaw in their respective sports to their advantage and as far as i'm concerned its up to the proper and right authorities to cut this out - NOT THE MEDIA AND BITTER OLD MEN - so i suggest you either grow up, get on with it and stop moaning and b!tching constantly or just forget the whole 50 years you've followed Liverpool FC and sport in general.

Hey Flamey one... the honest game has gone.... long gone. That's if it ever existed! Sorry about your nostalgia and all that but it's just so unrealistic and pointless. Your demonising of Suarez just follows that lame punditry on television, equally pointless. I had to watch Danny Dichio saying the same thing about Suarez stitching BR up and it was laughable. Actually, I bet BR and Suarez laughed it off in their private "talk." Look, BR said what he had to say to the press - "We don't support cheating"... "Cheating is unacceptable" etc., what did you expect him to say? Of course he's going to take that tone - and he probably was a little bit miffed at Saurez's interview. But really mate - the whole thing is a joke and BR knows it. The sham moralism of the British media, FA types and Fergie, is just too hypocritical to take seriously. BR even backed Suarez's claim about foreign players being treated more harshly - and this story just proves the case to be true. Sorry to ruin your illusion but Norman Hunter was a massive cheat... and I bet there were cheats in Sir Stanley Matthew's era too. Grow up! +1, great post Colorado.

It's quite obvious then that cheating is perfectly acceptable amongst Liverpool fans simply because we have a blatent cheat amongst us in Suarez, very sad that people back this horrible little cheat up instead of condeming him and the damage these types of players do to the Premiership, very sad people say its alrite coz everyone now does it, what an outlook...

Agreed, even coolflames is a cheat. A nasty, vile little cheat, like Suarez.

I know it would never happen because we would never play in the Champions League again probably, but would think it would be really funny to see how all these Pro Suarez fans reaction if we played Suarez, new Club in the Quarter Finals and he either blatenly dived or used his hand to win a penalty or score a goal which ended up knocking us out the competition, would be very interesting indeed...

Spoken like a true blue! not really, just talking hypetheticaly to prove a point... well, if that were to come about it would suck regardless if it was suarez or not. listen, nearly all of us don't like that side of him and we are usually quick to show our disapproval for such behavior. however the dive against Stoke is the only time i can recall that he blatantly took a dive. the handball against mansfield was unfortunate but those things happen sometimes. i said on several occasions (and so did many others) that we didn't want to win that way but it happens. so to my knowledge he has one accidental handball that happened in the course of .04 seconds and one blatant dive. yes, there was the WC incident but he was punished for it and personally i would have done the same thing. if i was in a position to give my country a chance of advancing i would do it. also, i'm pretty sure every striker in the world has blatantly dived on one occasion so i don't know why you have to single out suarez as the only one who do such a thing. it wasn't like suarez tried a paul scholes volleyball punch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kme2xaGi49A

I love how the only topic ever raised on this forum that actually STAYS on topic throughout, is one where Luis Suarez is being criticised. Some people are relentless.
Get over it and move on, people.
