Had two games today, first went fine, and second did on the whole too, but it had one of those teams who just moan and moan and moan. And foul.
It ended with 9 yellows and two reds, all but one yellow for the horrible away team in red.
Match control not helped by a second minute penalty against Red, but it was a stonewall and no doubt, but it set the tone for the moaning.
Anyway, after the final whistle unsurprisingly very few handshakes from red. Go to retrieve my flag from red manager and at least offer a handshake (which in fairness was accepted) and as I walk across towards him he's whispering with the captain.
As I shake managers hand captain asks my full name and says he will be reporting me to the county (I assume because I dared to challenge their unacceptable behaviour) but he never actually said what for.
Now I seriously doubt they will as nobody even wrote it down, my card report tells its own story and they would only need to contact the home manager who would confirm they behaved disgracefully (he even spent 10 minutes in the car park afterwards telling me he was embarrassed by their behaviour as they are representing the same league) to see whatever is alleged is untrue.
I just wonder if anybody had ever been contacted by their county following up one of these 'reports' and what came of it if they did?
