I'm sick of having pundits and commentators look for the slightest bit of contact to justify what's just happened. If the above is the case then every corner kick in the Premier League is a penalty. Too many ego's and threats though.
Can anyone remember when it was suggested Alan Shearer threatened to pull out of the Euro's if he was banned for kicking Neil Lennon? whilst we don't strictly know if it's true its an example.
Until they start banning people after the game for deliberate handballs, dives and so on then nothing will change.

I go back to my solution for other offences.
Castration.
I bet they wouldn't dive if that was the punishment
(come on delia..sing it.."off with the ghoulies, let's be having youuuuu"
