DrewDon Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 It must be the action of waving an imaginary card that is the bad thing, rather than just asking a referee to book an opposing player or expressing a view that a yellow card offence has been committed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it comes under the new subset of rules in regard to "unbarclayslike conduct" 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Brightside Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 I will never understand why people get so annoyed with the imaginary yellow card thing. Also would like to know if they'll be booking players for asking the ref to book someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think refs should be far harder on some of the dissent and abuse they get, so I don't disagree with your point but don't get why the hand waving is singled out. Fair enough If they are cracking down on it all dissent! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a step.in the right direction, and probably singled out because unlike asking the question, it's a public, open questioning of the ref.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 I believe it's also part of a Home Office initiative to encourage foreign players to assimilate properly and learn the English language. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this, its not done just to question the referee, its publicly undermining him, same with the mini tantrums and exaggerated shocked expressions. ETA: not that Taylor didn't deserve a public shaming for that performance. Edited August 13, 2023 by Raven 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In what way is it 'publicly undermining him'? The players are asking the referee to book someone for what they deem a foul. It's no different to players claiming for throw ins or corners they're clearly not entitled to. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not up to the players to ask for a booking though. Referee makes his decision, get on with it, without playing up to the crowd like a spoilt wean. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
