Whether it’s rolling around on the floor like they’ve been shot or falling over and holding their face after someone brushes past them, it’s an unfortunate fact of modern football that players (we’re looking at you Ronaldo) will go to great lengths to feign injury and get rivals sent off.
But while we generally applaud referees for having the gumption to book players for faking injuries and simulation, we can’t help but feel that whistleblower Tim Robinson may have been a little over zealous with Luton Town midfielder Cameron McGeehan – who was booked after breaking his leg in a clash against Portsmouth last month. 
McGeehan was injured in a tackle with Michael Doyle in the first half of the League Two encounter on the south coast and punched the pitch in agony as he was seen to by the Hatters’ medical staff and paramedics.
Clearly concerned by this vicious assault on the turf, Robinson jogged over and showed the player a yellow card before he was carted off on a stretcher.
 “Surely an element of empathy or compassion has to be shown,” said manager Nathan Jones while stabbing a voodoo doll of Robinson.
