I wasn't there for footy on Sunday, but as I understand it we had an over-zealous ref who was being assessed. He told some of our players they couldn't wear baselayers that didn't match the main colour of the shirt - a ridiculous rule that should apply to professional football only where they get given everything they wear, it's unreasonable to expect Sunday League players to buy baselayers that match their team's kit for goodness sake. Then he was handing out cards like confetti apparently. An 18-year-old who's a new player for us and seems like a nice lad, picked up two yellows for the softest fouls you'll ever see I'm told. It's only the second red card we've ever had, the first was many years ago for someone who threw a punch, and that guy never played for us again. Now this young lad has a £35 fine waiting for him. The ref obviously didn't care about that or give it any consideration. It's enough to drive young people out of the game. The ref even had the option of not logging the cards on the system, but no, he has put it through so the fine stands. For a young lad to have to pay another 35 quid for a couple of innocuous fouls is outrageous in my opinion.
I thought you had a player sent off the other week that you mentioned on here? Could be wrong like ?
