Alex Dyer

STEPHEN ROBINSON has told Alex Dyer that the football community is completely behind him after the Kilmarnock boss was subjected to racist abuse by letter.

Killie are working with Police Scotland to identify any individuals involved in the letter sent to the club in the wake of the 2-1 home defeat to Livingston on Boxing Day.

Motherwell manager Robinson, whose side host the Ayrshire outfit in the Scottish Premiership tomorrow, described the abuse as “simply not acceptable” and assured Dyer that everyone in the game is supportive.
