Now they should also put divers in there too! Because the game has gone to shite in the last two decades. Playing for a free kick or penalty is embarrassing for the game. People who didn’t watch it 25-30 years ago laugh at it because of the prima Donna’s falling over every 5 minutes. Put them in the bin for 5 minutes every time and surely they will stop faking it….

There’s a difference between diving or faking and exaggerating, do they both merit the same punishment?

Imagine kicking a chair on accident, you can’t do anything but wince in agony for a few seconds. A lot of these incidents where someone is really hurt for 5-10 seconds and then gets up are more like that than faking. Even guys who go down with cramps when they’re 1-0 up in the 95th minute, there’s no way to determine if it’s legit or not.
