The referee last night seemed to just ignore it. Their keeper in particular had (IIRC) four different on pitch treatments, wandered about waving his arms at every goal kick, careful weeding of the pitch before every goal kick and dead ball including seeming surprised when an outfield player indicated that he should take free kick and then wandering up to do so, more arm waving and eventually restarting play. They were allowed to get away with this from the 4th minute onwards. Oh and their goal celebrations took over a minute each time, yet he only added three minutes at the end of the first half.
It made no difference to the result we got what we deserved but I paid to watch a game of football not some am-dram fakery and pantomime shenanigans it is spoiling the game as a spectacle. The defence that we do it too is just bo111ocks, I don't want us doing it either. I'm fine with the corner flag malarkey, the ball is in play but things like cramp manifesting only in those professional athletes who are currently winning, the micro siting of the ball for a dead ball and all the other nonsense is a terrible advertisement for the game no matter the result or the team doing it.
