Ref kicks out at player

Recommended Posts

Fight or Flight took over.

 

His rational forebrain turned off and his rear, animal instinct took over. He got pushed and he instinctively responded.

hope he got sent off for violent conduct

 

He's been removed from the selection panel, but nobody has stated whether that's temporary or permanent.

 

The big problem is that for that sort of bad behaviour, who shows the red card?

I just hope the same standards (and punishments for any breach of) apply to players and referees alike. Is that the case in football?

 

If you compared 2 separate instances of abuse on the pitch; a referee abusing a player, and a player abusing a referee; would you expect a comparable punishment for the aggressor in each instance (assuming a comparable level of aggression / violence)?
