Bingo!!!!!!
I take that back, players that do have a serious head knock would try and cover up they are injured. A head injury is a special case, but VAR should look at it and see if he does have a head knock, and give a yellow card if not.
Wasn't there talk of trialling something akin to this, where if a player is down injured for x amount of time, they then have to go off the pitch for the same x amount of time (down for 3 mins, stay on sideline for 3 mins)10 minutes recovery time on the sidelines for a concussion check would put a halt to it
I think a 3-4 minute precaution period for observation would stop the practice of going down with a head knock to break the flow of the game10 minutes recovery time on the sidelines for a concussion check would put a halt to it
The mhanks are famous for going down holding there head now a few other teams seem to be doing it now really needs to be cut outyep it's every game against us now, mostly at corners. that stunt he tried to pull yesterday was ridiculous. If they go down holding their heads it should be 5 minutes off the pitch for a mandatory check.
It would cut all the nonsense out immediately and mean the serious cases will get dealt with correctly.
Not really the point of the thread but thanks anyway for a valuable contribution.Mental that he's looking like a starter in a SC Final v Celtic. He's Motherwell-level.
It was Cochrane and he did it last season at Hampden and got Cantwell wrongly booked. Feigning a head knock is becoming one of my biggest bug bears in our game.Minor gripe from yesterday game. Did you notice the Hearts player going down holding his head hoping for the game to be stopped?
Even seeing it live he wasn’t touched by McCausland in the build up. Players that try this should be punished to try put a stop to this.
Saw that at the time.Maybe VAR should be used at the time and give them a red not a yellow card for feigning injury the tramps do it all the timeMinor gripe from yesterday game. Did you notice the Hearts player going down holding his head hoping for the game to be stopped?

Sorry dad. I saw the McCausland reference in the title and thought I'd crack on from there.Not really the point of the thread but thanks anyway for a valuable contribution.
Said the same thing when it happened. They need to cut this out as its becoming ridiculous.Minor gripe from yesterday game. Did you notice the Hearts player going down holding his head hoping for the game to be stopped?

The rule is in place for all the right reasons but players are trying to exploit it

I remember that one. Stuart Findlay I’m surePlayers are being told to exploit it by their managers.
You don't get more blatant than the Killie player a few weeks at Ibrox in the lead up to our third goal.
So, after a game against Dundee where he gets a (important) goal and then an assist, he's just played against the 3rd best team in the league, scored one, put in the cross that Silva scored from and should have had another assist for the chance Dessers managed to somehow miss in the first half and that's your comment in a completely unrelated thread? The kid has just turned 21 and is in his first full season as a senior player. Maybe consider supporting him and see how he develops?Mental that he's looking like a starter in a SC Final v Celtic.

The problem with so long is that you are also punishing people who really have had a knockI've not read that one, but 10 mins minimum on the sidelines would have an effect on the cheating.
Absolutely. Holding your head 10 minute check in the medical room10 minutes recovery time on the sidelines for a concussion check would put a halt to it

i would agree top that if there was a head injury substitute that just came on for the 10-minute spell, but to punish a team with who had a genuine head injury I find too harsh.How are we punishing someone who really has had a knock? He goes off immediately and is replaced. No questions asked.
The Killie player and that Hearts player should have been carded. A red would soon make the cheats think twice and those with a legitimate head knock, surely they should be replaced anyway?

Fukk it we need to use it ourselves thenits so common... want to stop the game, grab your head... I agree any concern re a head injury should mean an off-field assessment as in rugby!
It's horrific. You've got guys that have taken serious life-threatening head knocks but these fannies are pretending to have suffered likewise. It's altogether different from holding your leg for a bit long. It badly needs dealt with by officials.Yep. I had a thought that it would go to VAR and get ruled out for high feet/dangerous play - as would be typical for us in this shitehole.
This feigning of head injury needs to be stamped out. It's pathetic.
I thought at the time the foot was highMinor gripe from yesterday game. Did you notice the Hearts player going down holding his head hoping for the game to be stopped?

Good shout. Even retrospectively after the game, to stop it slowing downBingo!!!!!!

Exactly, especially with VAR, no head contact assessed after stoppage of game, red card.Red cards for diving/simulation would soon solve a lot of issues.
Advocated it for a long time. Its cheating.
It's a race by certain people to see who can write off our academy players the quickest.So, after a game against Dundee where he gets a (important) goal and then an assist, he's just played against the 3rd best team in the league, scored one, put in the cross that Silva scored from and should have had another assist for the chance Dessers managed to somehow miss in the first half and that's your comment in a completely unrelated thread?
