Overturned
Don't agree on this one, very glad it has been over turned. Irrespective of it being pretty difficult to prove beyond doubt that he was not touched, the precedent of taking action just because the media make a fuss of it was wrong and dangerous.
Your a red - you must give thanks to Stevie G surely for knowing when to drop in the area & Sir Michael when he had some pace and played for us.
Did anyone see the celtic player get sent off for diving the week after?

The point is if the FA charge a player and then hand out a ban, doesnt it set a precedent when the player and his club can then go to Uefa to get it overturned ??
Apparently they had 'new' evidence he didnt touch him
As for Stevie G going down easily, yes he does, but he doesnt dive. He goes down when hes touched, but doesnt blatantly set out to cheap by going down without contact, and then roll around pretending to be in pain ala Drogba or ronaldo

Was he not banned by Uefa in the first place? Agree the whole affair is a shambles.
So we have good diving and bad diving? Like good aids and bad aids?!
