Time to act over cheats

-

OUMAR NIASSE got what he deserved when the FA banned him for two matches for diving to win a penalty against Crystal Palace last Saturday. Might I also suggest an automatic suspension for any player who boots an opponent up in the air, then wags his finger furiously at the referee to try to con him into thinking he didn’t do it. A referee’s job is hard enough without decoding the antics of drama school-level actors.
