22A Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 For those who remember that far back, the Ref took no action when Gerry Gow thumped team mate Bobby Gould during a game. Either the Ref didn't know what to do in that circumstance, or else decided BG deserved it. Needless to say, the Evil Post match report AND editorial stated Gerry should have been sent off.

We were discussing this sort of thing at HT today. There was some Brazilian playing in Italy that had been booked earlier in a game this week yet removed his shirt after scoring to show a message of support to the poor players killed in the plane crash last week, only to be met with a red card for taking his shirt off. I don't mind rules and laws but they have to have an element of human flexibility IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rules are you are not allowed to remove your shirt after you score and if you do, its a yellow card. Common sense - why don't players keep their shirts on and give respect in a different way. Having some crudely drawn message of support on a sweaty undershirt vest is hardly the only way to show support! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't see why players taking their shirt off in celebration is a bookable offence, but indeed, the facts are, that it is. Why not think of another gesture..? Although you can see why the authorities have to be strict on allowing messages to be sent to the wider audience, incase it gets abused. Of course, common sense is great, but to many people can abuse leniency, when it's applied. Some people take a booking to convey a message, which is fine. To do it when you are on a booking, without discussing and clearing it with the officials first, displays the biggest lack of common sense.

Lanterne Rouge Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 All looked a bit handbags to me and probably bookings would have been fairer given the timing and emotion at that stage of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at AG, but still a City goal and quoting from the history book. In 1946/47 Ivor Guy scored at Ninnian Park from seventy two yards out! The ball did not bounce.
