Sir Bobby Robson: "It's a very big problem at the moment. It has got worse and I think in a way it is not only down to the self-discipline of players - and that has to improve magically - but also down to the authority and clout of managers.

"Strong, tough managers will have no problems with disobedient players. But players have to show far more respect to referees
"
I want to go back to the Bobby Charltons, the Bobby Moores, the Billy Wrights. These were very wonderful footballers but they also knew how to behave on the pitch.

"We must stamp out the awful disrespect which is ongoing and is spoiling our game."
