Still the same old diving and cheating going on that there was last season and once again the officials don't act on it and the presenters cover it up by trying to find the smallest contact they can on super zoomed in slo motion to justify it

Barton is to blame for getting stamped on? Injury or no Injury its a red card.
I do however fully agree with what you are saying. Commentators claim they 'Maybe' went over a little too easy when its as clear as day a dive right in front of you.
They do zoom in and find the tiniest bit of contact that somehow send the player flying across the penalty box! Diving should be a straight red card but it seems its now acceptable in the game.
