Bale has just come out and said:

"This is the same again - three times now I've been clipped and I've been booked for no reason. People keep saying I dive but if you're clipped it's not a dive. Referees just have to look a bit closer."

It's a contact sport FFS.
 

to be fair to bale - the rules state that if contact is made, the player is within his right to go down. it's still diving, but he obviously feels as it's contact he has the right to go down.

he shouldn't be defending himself as a non-diver though, he should just be saying i'm playing to the rules. It's a stupid ****ed up rule anyway which should be banished, it's a load of ****. The fact that he dives when there isn't contact means that everyone is going to rightly jump on his back
