Aye, should make it a bookable offence to do that.
Why?
Awful attitude to do that.
What about appealing for free-kicks and penalty kicks?
Trying to get players booked goes over the boundary. Serious lack of professionalism.
What boundary? The imaginary one that you've just created in your head?
Under your theory, would you be happy for players to push the referee around ?!?
I don't see how that's related to appealing for something that you feel you deserve. If you feel you've been fouled, appeal for it. If you feel you deserve a penalty, appeal for it. If you feel the player deserves a yellow card, appeal for it. Same with a red. And how they appeal for it is irrelevant as well. Say it, wave an imaginary card, sing a fucking song. If they're appealing for it, they're appealing for it. It's not cheating because they're not diving or doing something which is against the rules of the game. It's just appealing for something that they feel is deserved, which is perfectly fine imo.
Players pushing referees around would obviously be conduct that is against the rules.
