Put quite simply ---the officials make a major blunder by not giving a penalty and then accuse the player of cheating and he is ecpected not to be upset by that fact.
Interesting thought isn't it? It is like going into a shop and buying something and then being accused of shoplifting, I'm sure that we would all accept that as par for the course and not cause a fuss, however we expect a player not to react to wrongly being accused of cheating.

As far as the language etc. is concerned, I took this up with the FA many years ago because they were insisting that referees in local leagues should be dismissing players for foul and abusive. I pointed out that the example had to come from the top and that that is something which they should address.

I was told in no uncertain terms that the purge had to start at the bottom and it would then filter through to the top level. They insisted that the language used at the top level was industrial and was in their place of work so that nothing would be done to curtail this because it was acceptable and all part of the game at that level.


That to me is a load of (insert industrial language of your choice here).

I absolutely despair at the people who purport to run our game !

It really isn't just about the actual words used and is not prescriptive. It's about how it's said and context.
