Although on a slightly different track, specifically where there is minimal contact rather than none, plenty of pundits seem happy to question players who don't go down in order to try and win the penalty. I think this is almost as bad as diving for teaching children the wrong side of football and refs should be given far, far greater support if they play the advantage but if the attack is sufficiently impeded then bring it back for a penalty.

If it was a clear dive then I would be embarrassed to stay up on that moment. I am sure I would start to count the contentious instances that went against over the season and argue that it's much worse to win a title on a dive (your greater talent and greater wealth should mean you are less likely to cheat) but the embarrassment would still be there.
