I don't know if the FA can or will do something as it's a bit of a dark area, they say if the referee doesn't see it then they can't do anything but then if there is violent play during a game the referee hasn't seen then they can and have done something in the past aka Barrow v Forgot (lol) in the FA Cup a few seasons ago, can't remember the FA doing anything about diving but UEFA did ban a Lithuania player for diving against Scotland in the Euro Championship qualifiers.

The penalty was given because of Ferguson, he had a moan about ref's not giving penalties when Ronaldo is fouled and he's the king of mindgames and it worked.
