I have no idea about the particular situation you describe, but, in general, if replays are showing that a player is persistantly engaging in unsportsmanlike conduct then they should be called before a Disciplinary Committee and be required to explain their actions and then fined, suspended, banned as appropriate to their offence.
However this is something that needs to be done *outside* the 90 minutes of the game, not *during* it.

Of course after the 90 mins is too late by then, the ref's incompetance will have affected the game.
However I will agree if you if they change the rules that if the ref has found to be have made a big mistake they then (a) have the match replayed (b) fine the ref 2 weeks wages if a professional or ban him for x amount of games.
