littlerobin Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 It may have been said already but i am fed up of players getting yellow cards for celebrating with the fans when they scored. I noticed that Sproule scored ran over to the fans, nothing goin on then the ref books him. Say he scores 5 goals this season and gets a booking each time that would mean that he is out for 1 match which in my mind is ridiculous. There must be some leeway in the rule because when you score a goal you want to celebrate and soon the players wont be able to do that.I don't know if its just me but it seems stupid when a player gets 2 yellows in a match and 1 is for celebrating it seems to just be a waste of a player for the remainder of the game and another.

Guest jpark Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 i think its ridculious if your celebrating with your own fans and get booked but if a player scores and taunts opposing fans i think that shuld definatly be a booking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans taunt players- shouldn't fans be able to take a bit of their own medicine? Surely it is part of the banter?I do agree that yellow cards following a goal should be cut down.

HomerRed Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Agree. I thought it was a booking if the player goes into the crowd which i don't think Sproule did but I might be wrong. Also, he's on four yellows now which is a worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgimed Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I believe the rule is players leaving the pitch, if the players stayed on the edge and were mobbed by fans I don't think they get booked (happened at Sunderland a while back) but obviously this rarely happens for reasons.

exiledinwatford Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Its a crap ruleButThe player know it,just like they knowthat kicking the ball away will get them a yellowDead right. Players should know the rules - good or bad. go into the crowd = get booked. Doh!Maybe if Sproule is banned Murray will get in the 16 (if Wilson is injured and they don't switch Carle to right wing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Zeppelin Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Can I just ask, what is it that Sproule was booked for?I didn't see him do anything other than run towards the East End corner, but I may have lost sight of him in celebrations.

Nibor Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Delaying restart of play I guess, I think the only other things you can be booked for are taking your shirt off and jumping over advertising hoardings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he only got pushed into the fans as he was mobbed by his teamates. Goalscoring is a crucial part of the game is it not so why can't it be celebrated to the enjoyment of the players and fans alike, well it's meant to be an 'entertainment experience package' nowdays isn't it?Maybe refs should allow a set amount of time, say a minute or so and after that get the book out. Teams should be allowed to celebrate how they like but as long as they are ready to restart after the said time no bookings.As for Wilson, shame about his goal but he was well worth seeing anyway booking or no booking!!!!

sephjnr Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Seeing it's fairly obvious that this rule isn't going to go away (as much as it should), keep goal celebration cards in force for that match only, then either strike them from a player's record automatically at the end of the match or allow the teams to appeal for such, in the same way they'd appeal against a red.

Bristol Boy Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 If the referee thinks it's directed at opposition fans and inflammatory, fair enough.If it's celebrating with your own fans, add on 30 seconds for time wasting if you think it's appropriate and just get on with it.

I'm not saying I agree he should have been booked, but he knows what to expect.I've never understood players who put on a t-shirt with a logo on under their kit and then show it when they score - they're purposefully going out there with it in mind. Do they really think they're going to get away with it, or don't they care about being booked?! I'd go mad if I was their manager and they did that and got themselves a really stupid yellow card...

Further, the opponents should be allowed to restart after the minute has expired, even if the other team hasn't retired back to their own half. That would be hilarious to watch!
