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.

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.

Seems the bit I've highlighted in scummy red no longer appears in the text of the article.
Not seen a retraction or an apology for being clueless twats though.
