The Aston Villa player’s offence was technically a red card. But the Fulham player should get a yellow for simulation. Players will continue to over egg their injuries if they continue to get away with it.
And I’m not excusing the Villa player’s stupidity. [Post edited 20 Oct 2022 20:53]

Thought the pen was about right given Mitro is in my FPL team but the red was harsh to me. Maybe I need to get my eyes tested but it looked like a six of one half a dozen of the other chest shove from each of them to me. I didn't see a movment of the head beyond the way it does when you chest shove someone |  |

Do you ever think physios and doctors are embarrassed to run on and treat players when they are so clearly acting? How does that conversation go?
"Mitro are you actually hurt or are you just making sure he gets sent off?"
"Yeah I'm absolutely fine, just conning the ref"
"Okay, we'll just pretend to patch you up until he's gone off then" |  |

That's exactly how it goes. Peter Crouch revealed on his podcast that players will go down to buy time and the physio will know if they're play acting or not. |  | | |

Sadly, they are all employees of a professional sports club where, in the modern world, winning is the only thing & it doesn't matter what you do as long as you get away with it.
Plenty of Town fans on here are happy if we adopt similar tactics to win games, largely on the grounds that the opposition sides keep doing it. |  |

All the cheating , simulating and time wasting seems to begetting worse and it's time the FA did something to stop it .
If a player in local football did some of the play acting we see every week , he would get so much stick from the crowd . |  | | |

It's hard to deal with simulation, but a good start would be if referees were instructed not to stop play unless there was a head injury. If a player wants the phsio on the pitch, he then has to leave the field for 2 minutes. | |

Makes a complete mockery of their profession. | |

The only trouble with the two minute thing being that, if it’s genuine, then it wouldn’t exactly be fair for a team to be down to ten men if they were involved in some collision. | | | |
