Given that the game's ONE law-making body World-wide (I.F.A.B.) has a standing ruling that post-match video review of divers can't be used and that all Confederations & member Associations are bound by IFAB's decisions, then the media's merciless naming and shaming of these culprits is the way to go to at least reduce these incidents.
In any case, WTF - did the ref do his homework on the squads pre-game like all high-level refs do so they know the names & players' tendencies? Young's reputation should have preceded him.
Ashley YOung at it again.

Re: Ashley YOung at it again.
Can't see it happening - would need a two thirds majority of the 209 member associations at a FIFA Congress to overhaul. At least they're more transparent now where they will have to give reasons for decisions taken at each year's March AGM of IFAB.ozzie owl wrote:Con M time for IFAB to be overhauled and allow video match review and hand out retrospective yellow cards.Con M wrote:Good to see the media mercilessly ripping into Young again.

Meantime merciless naming & shaming of divers by all the media - TV, radio, press, social media etc will continue to expose the culprits. Other Refs will see that, be prepared & err on the side of no penalty when those players are involved.

Cant believe that an Englishman would dive. Only foreigners do that in the EPL dont they?

The difference is everyone is talking about an Englishman diving, including you and all the English media. The locals don't like it, it's not part of their make up so it stands out, unlike elsewhere

Not much has been said?? Have you read any of the English media online??? Ramires has been labelled a cheat for it, and rightly so.Le King wrote:Yeah but that was chelsea so not much will be said.Nice One Cyril wrote:Shocking dive by Ramires this morning.

Things get kinky when ManU supporters have to admit their players are not precious little snowflakes.
