MaveriK Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Oh, and yes i would like Ref's to be treated on a football pitch the same way as they are on a rugby pitch. But if that is what the FA want then rules should have been put in this season to curb our players, not leave it to now to see if we can avoid a card. Whether its swearing, high tackle etc i think one of our boys will get sent off by a ref trying to make a name for himself again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the F word is internationally recognised! Besides, his body language itself is indicative of dissent. Rooney would have been booked almost anywhere in the world, except perhaps the English premiership. Dissent against match officials shouldn't be tolerated. Other team sports have to show more respect for the match officials, only the overpaid prima-donnas in football think they are above all that, whatever country they come from!
