Was on a contrib game last night as an assistant referee.
In about the 75th minute a reckless tackle in the centre circle by an away player the ref gives a free kick and pulls the yellow card out of his pocket very quickly.
Then what happened the away team player kicks out at the home team player on the floor. The ref tried his best to sneak his yellow card back into his side pocket but everyone had seen the yellow card in his hand.
He did sent the away team player off for violent conduct.
The asseor comes in after the game and asked the ref why he was so quick to pull the yellow card out. Why did he not wait until both players had got up off the floor and then take his time to deal with that incident.
This will make you laugh, the refs answer was. `Well I have watched Chris Foy pull his yellow card out like that, thought I would give it a go.
Asseor- But you are not Chris Foy so don`t try to referee like him.
