Re diving and not just the Naisse incident.
I think the FA should use a situation similar to cricket with the third umpire .
If the ref does give a penalty and there is ANY DOUBT then the fa panel decision would stay with the ref
If on the other hand there is absolutely no contact and he gives a pen then the decision is overturned and player banned.
Obviously if the ref does not give it and the player is tackled perhaps the ref should be banned. !
It just highlights how far behind football is with technology because even if they do use something similar it's still not on the day and the damage is done for ever.

Don't see the problem with video referees, sure people say itvwould slow the game down but just have decisions on key incidents such as penalty's, sendings off and goals (was it offside etc) . Would only take a moment to review these things, they would probably be done by the time the players finished celebrating. Agree with the above too.
