>>You wont be saying that when a Preston player elbows Killa off the ball and doesn’t get seen by the ref, and we end up playing for 10 men for 10 mins because of it! The flaw with this argument is that if a player has been genuinely fouled then why should his team be penalised for it? A simple yellow card whenever the referee deems someone as ‘simulating’ an injury or the seriousness of that injury should be enough to stop a lot of feigning.<< Providing the referees apply the rule consistently, and get it right. Using your scenario, what if Killa was deemed to be "simulating" as the ref didn't see the incident - and sent off if he was already on a yellow (so suspended for the next game)?   Mark
