Players diving. Is there any way to fix this?


Recommended Posts

I've got a striker and a right winger constantly get themselves carded for diving.

I'm in the middle of an away match to Norwich, 3rd game of the season, 1-0 up, tight game.. the striker goes and gets a second yellow for diving.

Last season, he missed the FA Cup semi-final because he dived when we were 2-0 up with 5 minutes left against a relegated team. The winger has done the same thing on several occasions as well.

I fine them, and they thinks it is unfair.

My right winger(wide midfielder actually) was in the same category :( I criticised him in the strongest possible terms in the match conference after every game, but it didn't seem to make much difference. He got double yellow-carded four or five times in three years, I think - but he was in all other respects a great part of the team, so I kept him in. I never tried fining him.

Actually, in my last two seasons I don't think he's done it, so maybe he has learnt? :)
