“I’m glad I’m not playing in the Premiership any more, I’d be pulling my hair out.
“Players rolling around and faking injury — you see it every week in the Premiership.
“Watch Match Of The Day and you’d see it. If I was their manager I’d be embarrassed because trying to get another player sent off is cheating.
“Players are conning each other and I’m glad I’m not playing — especially in the Premiership. We all know the players, I could tell you the high-profile ones but I wouldn’t give them the time of day.”
The Irishman added: “I’m on my high horse because I went and kicked a lot of players, but I’m on about conning the referee.
“Referees need to know the players, there are a lot out there who are trying to pull one over the referee by diving and chasing the referee.”
