Oh perhaps that's what's it's for as said above USB but more in taking possession off opposing team. That's said they had just won the league so they were in good spirits.

At about 7:20. What section of the Law (this game still on 15/16) would the Ref have used?

So around 50 seconds in this video. What colour if any is the card? If I saw this incident for me its red.

I've cautioned someone before for Verbally Distracting. But it was a defender yelling loudly 'he is going to miss' when a attacker was taking a penalty kick.

So we had a coaching night recently where it was discussed that striking can be done in a careless, reckless or EF manner... Resulting in the usual Nothing/YC/RC. Is that in challenging for the ball?? I.e. You strike an opponent with your arm etc whilst jumping for a header... However is it...

So if the players swears in any way it's a red? Or nothing. There is no inbetween?

That's what I've always wondered as I've seen ref caution/send off players for saying the f word loudly for for instance scuffing the ball. To me if its not OFFINABUS then what part of the law are we 'hanging' them with? Under the unsporting banner, I've thought the closest is 'acts in a manner...

Hey guys. I'll set the scene. Relatively quiet game. I give handball (in my opinion was hand to ball and intentional) and player 1 (not player who gave away the foul) shouts oh ref! Really! So you can't protect yourself? This was not even in a wall just ball about 30 yards out. Anywho. He was...

Admin feel free to lock this. I'm finished discussing as the thread creator.

So the defender on the right got a straight Red. Even though the left one made more contact. A penalty was rightly awarded, but who goes off? Here is the vid link not sure if it'll work (1 minute mark).

Thanks. Exactly what I after. So the interpretations thingy at the back of the LOTG helped too. My watch counts up and down. When I stop it. The count down stops. (That is the amount of time left in the match so I don't need to do maths) the count up doesn't stop. There for acting exactly like...

Hi team. How do you decide how much time to add on? I've got a fandangled ref watch that I can pause for well, anything I want. The LOTG is very specific (injuries, subs) and then isn't (any other cause). I'll be reffing with interchange. So when would you 'stop your watch'. Mine counts down and...

I don't know. I thought it was quite smart. Poms :p

I really think it is one of those 'you have to be there' type incidents. And comes down to aggressiveness. Of note looking at my local FA send off codes, R2 is Violent Conduct with a Grade of One (lowest) for 'pushing, no punches thrown'

@CapnBloodbeard assuming the ref didn't see it as he didn't do anything.
