...and how can we fix it?

Diving, for one. Doesn't matter where it came from or who does it the most...fact is it's absolutely endemic in the game and the worse it gets, the closer it comes to making the game as a fair contest a thing of the past.

To fix it? I honestly don't know. if they were serious about getting rid of it, there would be proper retrospective action taken but look at some of the blatant dives that have been ignored...like Salah's against us. Problem is, when you've got moronic statements from ex players saying 'ah, but there was contact' or ''he touched him so he gave the ref a decision to make'...then the FA-and sections of the arse-licking media- are always going to err on the side of caution, especially where their darling big six are concerned.

TV in charge of fixtures. Aye, there's a balance to be had. The money that tv has put into the game has seen football now almost unrecognisable from the game of, say, 25/30 years ago -and much of that change has been good...but fans are at the bottom of the list (real fans, i.e. not the '39th game' bunch) when it comes to scheduling or rescheduling matches (Monday nights hundreds of miles away after the last train has gone, Sunday games at the opposite end of the country with noon kick-offs, etc)

Don't think that can be fixed, tbh. That horse has not only bolted from the stable but has been boiled down for glue and the stable has been converted into flats for hipsters.

Any more? shit refs, obscene wages...
