Just received a reply to my letter to Colin Calderwood asking him if he instructed or encouraged Eric Sabin to dive for penalties during our match when Sabin hit the deck like he had been shot.
"With regard to the penalty decision, any contact no matter how slight can lead to the referee awarding a penalty but rest assured that I do not and will not ever encourage my players to fall deliberately."
I think he should have a serious chat with Sabin who, in a later match , was given a second yellow (and then red-carded) for a blatant dive in the penalty area.
I rest my case, your Honour.
