Agony Aunt needed
I thought you'd be pleased about Drogba, Sweder. At least it's taken the 'diving' spotlight off Van Nistelrooy. Arsenal have Pires; Liverpool Alonzo (I think).

Yes, it's bad, but it happens everywhere and has done for a long time now. The solutions are simple -- one or both of:- 1) Technology. TV replays watched by someone off the pitch who is in contact with the referee. 2) Retrospective punishments to be applied more widely than they are now. You can appeal a sending-off from a straight red but not from two yellows. Makes no sense. It would be hard to retrospectively change the result of a game or disallow a goal, but a goal scored from an advantage created by blatant cheating could at least be punished by a 10 match suspension or a £1m fine or the deduction of 3 points. Believe me, that would soon stop it.
