Clarke Carlisle: "I genuinely believe if the FA, the Premier League and referees just took a zero tolerance line to diving and confrontation, either player to player or surrounding referees, you would see a month of madness.
"You would see red cards flying around left, right and centre but it would stop it because players would be missing two games, three games - then five, six, seven through suspension.
"They would miss key games and clubs would then take a stance on it. I believe you would then see it wiped out.
"If you just took the hard line, said we're not taking it any more, you might have a month of seven-a-side games but after that, because of the financial and professional ramifications, you would see a dramatic difference in players' behaviours.
"I want our players to represent the game in the best possible way.
"I want them to be leading lights for future generations and want the game in England to be of the highest integrity in the world.
"To that end, we want it to be the cleanest game we have, the most genuine in the world, and that is the way forward."
