Demitri_C Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Quote Everton's Oumar Niasse has appeal to simulation ban rejected by FA Last Updated: 22/11/17 3:08pm Oumar Niasse was handed an FA charge after Saturday's game Everton forward Oumar Niasse will serve a two-game suspension for simulation after his appeal was rejected by the FA, according to Sky sources. Niasse became the first Premier League player to be retrospectively charged with 'successful deception of a match official' following Saturday's 2-2 draw at Crystal Palace. At last Delighted they are taking action against blatant cheating. Hoping this will cut out all the divinga nd cheating that does on. Two game bans for me is a good starting point to punish players along with a fine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted November 22, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 22, 2017 Yep, should be a watershed moment. Once it becomes too much of a gamble it will be drastically reduced. My fear is for high profile games where the gamble may be deemed worth it. Refs may not be as accustomed to looking out for it. Great move however!

villakram Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Rubbish decision. The defender made no effort whatsoever to play the ball. That's a foul anywhere else on the field. Yes, it is very soft but it's up to the defender to get himself into the correct position beforehand or stay out and allow his covering fullback to deal with the situation. There was contact and he went down after said contact. Where in the rules is the statement that you should stay up when a defender charges across and makes contact with you?

You do know that contact is allowed in football? Anywhere else on the field and the attacker stays on his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted November 22, 2017 Moderator Share Posted November 22, 2017 The hundreds of examples that you see in a season of cheating and diving and the pick that to make an example of someone? Ridiculous. Yes he makes way more of it than he needs to but it’s a clear obstruction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I am sure Dele Alli was booked for diving a few weeks back, surely that is something that should have been banned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Proper diving should be a 10 game ban. That'll show the words removed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Agree with the sentiments of several on here that I'll believe they are taking it seriously when they ban big names for comparable incidents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contact isn't allowed in football - it only is if you're winning the ball, which the defender isn't doing. Not sure where I stand on this - Niasse is clearly looking for a penalty and isn't particularly impeded, but contact is made by the defender on him so a ban seems pretty harsh.

Stevo985 Posted November 23, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted November 23, 2017 I agree with the sentiment here, but you see worse dives than that every week! Consistency is key here. If they're banning the odd player here and there then it will make things worse if anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
