Punishment for Pedersen's dive?
Everybody laughs at it, but in truth it's the most disgraceful peice of cheating and didn't even get a yellow card. When it is as blatant as that, it would be great if the ref had the power to award a penalty at the other end.

This is why it will always be around, messing up the game and letting cheats prosper - there's nothing to lose is there?
The worst that can happen to you is a yellow card, but look what you can achieve - a penalty for your team and with a bit of luck a red card for an opponent who hasn't actually done anything wrong,
Hardly surprising it's rife is it?
I would look at video evidence after the game and hand out heavy bans for players that go down without being touched and/or feign injury.
After about two months or so it would be eradicated from the game as it would no longer be a no risk ploy.
It's hardly rocket science, but I suppose someone will come up with the "we wouldn't have anything to talk about if it wasn't for a bit of controversy" line.
