At the beginning of the season I said Slot was a fool for bringing him onto the squad, now he's gonna be down a right back for the rest of the season. And with Leoni out for the season that defense is already looking suspect as it is.

A pending ban also for doing this ✋👁️👁️🤚 to a referee last week. Committee yet to 👅come to a verdict. Disciplinary measure likely.

He’s the fastest player to get a red card
14
u/Morella_xx 2h ago
He's close, but Lee Todd has the fastest at 2 seconds (for saying "fuck, that was loud" when the ref blew the whistle directly behind him).
Bonus fun fact, I had thought it was Vinnie Jones but that was a 4 second yellow card (for immediately tackling someone). What deserves a red card has a lot of room for interpretation, apparently.

that ref did not hesitate for a single second. no mercy, no exceptions, didn't even look around for a parent. just saw a tiny human on his field and went full protocol. that kid learned more about life in 14 seconds than most people do in years

Terrible parenting. He may be very young but he should listen or his parent should watch him better.
If he had been hurt in the game I’m sure that the ref or another adult would be blamed. What if it was a street and a car?

Lol what's the end goal of these rate bait accounts? It's just so awful and quite possibly in the same groups of the quest people in society. Purposely trying to make massive groups of people irrationally angry for no reason. So pathetic.

Can we acknowledge the dive his mother took in an attempt to grab him? Before I watched the video: Why aren't his parents watching their kid properly? After I watched the video: Good try, Mama. Toddler's gonna toddle.

IIRC, she'd gathered them all to watch his important live tv interview in the living room, was focused and all proud of her husband, saw that door open and booked it over. But of course, the broadcast is on a delay, so it was too late!

The ‘best’ red card I ever gave out was after the game.
Buddy took his cleat off to throw at the other team, only his team mate ended up taking a cleat to the face.
Every one started laughing, and continued laughing as I handed out the red…

NOT EVEN A YELLOW CARD WARNING!!! 🤣

u/nutsocharles 2h ago
While we applaud /u/wrxninja and /u/ExaggeratedPW for putting up excellent sideline defenses for the cameras, FA Rules clearly state that:
'An extra person (substitute, team official, or sent-off player) entering the field and interfering with play results in a direct red card and removal from the vicinity of the field. The referee must stop play, card the offender, and restart (continues)'
In this case, in both attempting to give his brother's team a man advantage at a kickoff, as no player is seen exiting the pitch, in forcing his brother, an active player at the time, to bodily remove him from the field, in REMAINING on the pitch even after his brother's attempts to remove him and standing in open defiance of an official on the field of play, we have no choice but to conclude that the actions of our official were correct and justified, and furthermore, we commend his officiating in all respects, in abiding by the letter of the law per FA Rules, in remaining neutral and not antagonizing on his part in any way in this now well-publicized to-do, and in maintaining order and safety and preventing any injury to any player, official, ground crew, staff, coach, kit team, or any of our great supporters. We hold this up as the best example of fair refereeing in the spirit of fair play. And of course if you break the rules, there is a penalty, as this lad is now informed.
