Should be a six match ban, double the violent conduct one. Don't blame the ref too much given his view of it and what the player did, but the reverse makes it clear what a farce it is. |  |

Thing is, cheating like this will only get proper attention when clubs and managers start calling out their own players (which they obviously won't). Until then, the only people that really kick up a fuss about it will be the team the cheating goes against, and that then just makes them look like a bad loser.
Retrospective bans needed, or officials just to stop falling for it. |  |

They can and already do.
Coventry City vs Fulham 2022/23
Matt Godden was tripped/fell over and was awarded a penalty. We scored and went on to beat them 4-1. The joys of no VAR in the Championship to overrule.
Fulham complained, FA looked at it, sent it to their panel who decided he was guilty of simulation and gave him a 3 match ban. |  | | |

1-3 game ban should be standard for cr@p like that. If there was contact, then he has the right to go down, but I didn't see any. Blight of our game unfortunately. |  | | |

I hate the term âsimulationâ. Thatâs a mealy mouthed Sky-style smooth over term for cheating. Conning the referee. Trying to get another player sent off. Mugging off the public. Feigning injury, seeking an advantage by any means. Cheating pure and simple.
A player doesn't have the right to go down. A player goes down if fouled. Brought down. We all know what that actually means and looks like. Thereâs no mystery to it. If you want âright to go downâ, make it totally non contact like netball and see what you are left with.
An automatic six game ban for cheating, it stops. Do it twice in a season, 12 game ban. All games are filmed. Easy. If there is doubt, the alleged cheat gets the benefit of the doubt.
Flop to the floor and scream with a slight breeze Dewsbury-Fall would manage about 7 games without changing his approach. |  | | |

Dewsbury snorkel Hall may never play again if introduced.
Remove points from club instead of banning players and and the clubs would certainly manage it. After all it is the club that benefits in terms of points via penalties [Post edited 29 Apr 4:23]

But whatâs the difference between diving for a penalty and a defender grabbing hold of an attacking player at a corner? - or a defender deliberately colliding into a striker to let him know heâs there?
Both are cheating - I donât really understand why one form of cheating is considered much worse than the other. [Post edited 29 Apr 10:54]

Andy pisspoor pundit Townsend always used to say he "had the right to go down there" which ground my gears. Basically saying, cheating is fine because it's endemic anyway and part of the game. Disgraceful really. |  |

Both of your examples are fouls and will result in a freekick/penalty against the defender, that's not cheating.
Diving is cheating. |  | | |

Completely, it's blatant cheating. I think they should give a 3 match ban for such cheating.
I have no idea why he did it either, Rotherham are long gone to League 1 and Bristol have nothing to play for. |  | | |

Defenders being punished for holding on to attacking players at set pieces around the penalty area rarely ever happens at all. How many times a season do you see a penalty given for holding? Pretty much never is the answer, yet it goes on multiple times in each set piece in every match. |  | | |

It would be fun to see a real clampdown introduced. At first, because holding at corners and what the ex-pro pundits eupemistically call "blocking" is universal, the decision to award a foul would have to be effectively random - of the "pick any one from five" variety.
The pundits would howl "inconsistency", and the MotD dissections would add 15 minutes to the programme (or, more likely, take 15 minutes off the actual match coverage). But eventually, if the referees continued to apply it, the defensive strategy that resembles American Football would have to evolve into something that resembled a little less of Kent Walton's "afternoon, grappling fans". | |

Fouling an opponent is cheating - itâs trying to gain an advantage, exactly like diving. | | | |
