SHAUN MILLER

was born in Alsager, Cheshire, and has had an unremarkable career involving spells at Crewe, Sheffield United, Coventry and Morecambe. He is currently with Carlisle and may soon be a quiz question, as the first player to be convicted of ‘successful deception of a match official’ by a Football Association panel. In other words, diving. Miller hit the ground to win a penalty against Wycombe on Tuesday, and now faces a two-game ban. Proof, if any were needed, that cheating is not some nasty foreign habit and is not contained within the top league. Salt of the earth types do it, too.
