Ref's ignoring time wasting from the 1st minute yet giving a yellow for it in the 89th when it's pointless.
I enjoy kicking a ball, but I cannot stand "football culture" at all.

Players going down "injured" off the pitch then rolling back onto the pitch. Then getting up like it's a miracle.
Fabricating free kicks by throwing your body in front of the ball just so a defender runs into you. Collapsing on the floor when it looks like they've lost the ball. Going down at the faintest of touches. Diving in general, hate it.

Foul throws
Diving and players going down too easily
Defenders clearly obstructing the ball as it goes out of play yet it's considered 'great defending', whether you class it as a foul or not it's annoying as ****.
Players getting injured off the pitch then roll back on it
Refs not adding enough time on for time wasting during added time
Subs during added time that are clearly for time wasting
Just general time wasting, keepers taking an age to kick the ball, players leaving the ball for someone else to take a corner/throw in etc
Different rules inside the box to outside the box
Keepers far too protected
Attacking players barging defenders in the back when it's always going to be given as a foul

I'm on the fence on that one - tactically its a valid move if a bit lame. Time wasting in general though I look down on - a little bit is fair game but excessively so is poor sportsmanship.
Last home town game I went to saw the other way around - less than 10 seconds into the match defender barged an attacking player = foul right in front of the goal which was turned into a goal less than 20 seconds into the game heh.

English commentators suddenly going multi-lingual when pronouncing foreign players names or stadiums.

2 players going for a ball and it goes out for a corner or throw in and the player that knocked it out appeals for it even knowing full well they knocked it out.
general inability to pass the ball to their own player, especially when their under no pressure.
players wasting time during a match by faking an injury, yet when the opposition do it trying to drag them back to their feet.
kicking the **** out of a player then apologising and trying to help him to his feet
came someone explain why this isn't given as obstruction ?

Opposition fans pretending Liverpool fans actually say these things. I hate it so much that I should make it a bannable offence

I've enough Liverpuddle supporting mates to know it gets (got) bandied around plenty. Thankfully though it seems to have waned somewhat.
