It makes absolutely no difference what so ever. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hacking down Rob Lee, then X the significance by 100. Would you still be claiming he isnt a cheat?
At the end of the day, he stopped a clear goal by deliberately cheating. No two ways about it.
Its one of those things when its against you it hurts like fuck, I fucking hate OGS for that but I'd want me/my team/teammate to do the same.
