    Smalling’s pathetic dive.....

    resulted in Newcastle getting the free kick with the outcome being Ritchie scoring.

    On this occasion the cheat didn’t prosper and the game ended 1-0 to Newcastle!

    Diving is definitely spoiling the beautiful game.

    It's been the same for 30+ years and at least now they seem to be trying to do something about it by banning players but it needs to happen to a big name to set an example. At the end of the day though it's down to the players to look at themselves as cheats and want to be 'better men' and not be looked upon badly by fans/managers/chairmen when they don't fall over.

    If you get the chance to see it, there is absolutely no contact whatsoever.

    Bet Jose Mourhino is none too pleased at his antics today.

    As they say, cheats don't always prosper.

    ...i think we have to start with the Panelists who watch the games, and all the media to stop calling it "simulation" and call them cheats. Then ask the managers, after the match and live, if they're going to stop it...
