    Being a Wolves fan this season is almost as frustrating as last year’s relegation battle, despite us playing well. I just don’t get it. The most egregious thing imo is Vinicius (however it’s spelled) not being sent off just because Kilman wasn’t a bitch and rolling about the floor. Instead of rewarding Kilman’s good display of captaincy with the right decision, PGMOL basically just told everyone that if you want the rules to be adhered to, you have to milk every single situation. Disgusting.

      This is a weird one to call out. Kilman was fully bent over him and vinicius just got up (and hit kilman by virtue of him being bent over a player lying on the ground). Should have been a yellow to kilman probably, or at worst yellows for both.

        Imagine thinking an adult with a fully functional brain with the coordination of a professional athlete can’t stand up near to someone else without pushing their forhead into the other persons face.

      Some of the decisions against Wolves have been truly baffling this season, from the very first game as well! United should NEVER have won that, you were all over them.

      Yhea they should go back and ban him for a few games. We need to reward the player being better.

      This is what I have to tell people who make fun of the sport for all the flopping. Sure, it definitely is a problem and I hate when players do it - when I played unless you were seriously hurt you got back up and helped your team (or our coach would sub us out).

      But if you don’t milk it, the ref won’t call it and continue playing even if it’s a foul. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Players who actually get up and continue don’t get the calls made against them.
