I've just read the latest news about the 'Rivaldo-diving-incident'

FIFA have decided to fine him 58.000 Dkr (around $ 7000). Uh - that must really discourage him from doing something like that again

He should have gotten a one match suspension for bringing the game into disrepute.

Now the signal is 'dive away' - you and your team wins and the punishment is laughable

(for a football-millionaere at least )

I also heard about this. I think in pounds it was 5 grand. Laughable for someone who makes millions.

Well, that'd have more of an effect. If he was in his room he couldn't play soccer [img]tongue.gif[/img]
