The reality is that Rice took Fab out at the knees with a uncontrolled slide tackle...an obvious fact that seems to have escaped Chappers and his rag chorus.

A player needs to have won a penalty, and/or got a opposition player sent off to be charged with simulation retrospectively.

Although
a) You wouldn't expect thick raggo's to know the rules.
b) I'm sure the FA might make an exception for us

In all fairness PB, you can't expect the Scum lovers to even need to know the rules; they think anything as tiresome as those just don't apply to them.
Sadly, this has been the case for far too many years; it's now ingrained.

Publishing an incorrect interpretation of the rules is a mere detail for our media friends
"Fans call on FA to ban Fabian Delph after 'dive' to help Manchester City beat West Ham
The England man appeared to go down a little too easily under a challenge from Declan Rice, with the free-kick leading to Nicolas Otamendi's equaliser"

The new rules state that Delph, if found guilty, could serve a two match ban if the FA chooses to take action. Everton's Oumar Niasse recently suffered a similar fate for his dive against Crystal Palace which earned his side a penalty in the recent 2-2 draw at Selhurst Park. If there is enough evidence to pursue action it could potentially mean that Delph will be out of the colossal Manchester derby at Old Trafford next Sunday. Manchester United are already missing influential French international Paul Pogba after his sending off against Arsenal with his crude challenge on Hector Bellerin over the weekend.

I'm a thick fuck sometimes but even I got that and realised that it's a flakey reaction and needs to be across the field, not just specific to a few incidents. Was it so specific because of the Rag dives last season?

Watch on youtube.com

They need to be banned and quickly.
