Lomas receives a two match suspended ban for saying:
"It was a push from Munro first, and Viney just turns round, the actual reaction from the player is a disgrace if I'm being honest. Viney just put his chest out. For the big man to fall down like that; you'd expect that off a wee forward, but not from a big strong centre-half. Pretty poor, pretty poor."

Shiels receives nothing, not even a warning for saying this:

“He ran straight into my player looking for a penalty. I’m not criticising the referee by the way, but when the video evidence comes up I feel that player should be suspended. I don’t like diving."

Is there a difference between the two. In both, they are critical of a player from another team, blaming them for simulation.

Shiels is a media darling and that apparently matters more than the severity of the comment.

I got a 4 match ban from amateur footie for telling the ref his performance was a disgrace and he ruined the game a few weeks ago. Maybe they're clamping down in the word 'disgrace'..
