On a yellow, and scores in the last minute and takes his shirt off when he celebrates...obviously got a red, does he get banned for the next game or final, or both?
 
What is the origin of the rule? It seems totally pointless giving a player a booking for celebration.
 
If I was a Coventry fan that is the opposition I would have wanted, Man Utd capable of being equally ***** as they are good,

I've a vague recollection that it was originally to do with players not being ready for the restart.

Seems a bit dumb to book regardless though. If they have their shirt back on by the time the ref thinks the restart should happen then why bother booking.

It might have got mixed in with political messages on t-shirts at some point too but I don't think that was the original reason.
 
Well done to the lad. (y)

Could have been waiting a long time if he'd stayed on loan with this lot! 🔽:love:

So I have a question here......imagine Liverpool equalized at the death and the game went to penalties. What happens to take account of the man sent off if it goes to sudden death? If it's level after 10 kicks each, would Liverpool automatically win it if they scored their 11th or do both teams only have to nominate 10 kickers (so the 11th kick is back to the "best" penalty taker for each team). Surely it can't lead to a scenario where Liverpool's 11th kicker is their goalkeeper and Man Utd's is their number one penalty taker?

I believe the team with 11 has to nominate a player to not be involved in the penalties.

Originally it was something to do with sponsors I think. I might be totally wrong but it was because it tends to be the most photographed or shown part of the match back in the day. Sure it came in when Ravanelli signed for us, he ended up getting round it by wearing Cellnet on his vest.

I’m pretty sure it’s much more recent than that - mid 2000’s and if I remember correctly it was to do with time wasting essentially and getting the game restarted as soon as possible.
 
He’d have looked a right knacker if Liverpool had gone up the other end and equalised.
