Some TV commentators seem to not fully the rules of the game, as one of them said if the game had been further on in time it would have been a red card, but because the game was much earlier in progress, a yellow one was acceptable. What a load of utter tosh!!!!
Alan Shearer said something along those lines on MOTD, he was basically suggesting the referee had bottled it because it was so early in the game and he's probably right.
A referee getting it wrong because they didn't see something is one thing but when they clearly see it and bottle it. Graham Scott should be suspended.
It happens all the time and you both know it. Personally i think you should be allowed one "let them know you are there/reducer" challenge early doors. No blood or bones visible then play on............
