Thanks Debra – Yes, the Referee is explaining what he didn’t like about a challenge each of the players has made and warning that any more transgressions will lead to a yellow card. Get 5 yellow cards during the season and you get an automatic 1 match suspension. Get a second yellow card in the same game and you get sent from the pitch and get an automatic 1 match ban which the FA may increase depending upon the nature of the offences. If a player makes a dangerous challenge – both feet off the ground for example, the referee may issue a Red Card which brings an automatic 3 game ban and may result in further disciplinary measures by the FA. Hope that’s as clear as mud 🙂
You go right at the challenge, butting heads!
(Literally!)
All I could think of over a busy weekend Judith 🙂
Good job with the challenge. The conversations look important! 🙂
