    I've not really paid much attention, but I've certainly seen the odd retrospective ban story in Scotland on Twitter from time to time.

    A player to run him very close for constantly falling over would be Jozy Altidore. Still at it playing for Toronto last weekend winning a very dodgy penalty.

    Get yourself ready for mass supporter and media outcry about a dodgy penalty on the first weekend, only for the panel to say "He is entitled to go down there" and there won't be any punishment.

    Far too much conning of various types have crept into the game over the years, it's good to see this initiative being brought in.

    Blimey, if 'retrospective' means they're going back that far, the league will be decimated next season. Does his two match ban start straight away, or does it have to be the next full season? <yikes>

    Roughly translates to: how are we supposed to win a game now? And Zaha's value just got cut in half.

    I had a friend who won a major Blue Peter competition (in about 89 I think) and a badge, then had to give it back retrospectively when it was found he'd allegedly copied something from a magazine for his winning entry.
