Well played that Swansea player then...

...everyone moans about play acting and yet the merest hint of breath on someone's back and over they go...

Touching someone in the penalty area (not a euphemism) is not licence to dive and that's a lowercase fact...

Football is all about contact, it is impossible to rule it out - it is one of the things that makes it exciting to watch FFS...so let's stop this s**t before it gets even more out of hand or we may as well ban tackling altogether...
