       Pardon my obvious ignorance but..........

       First two games of 2025 involving my beloved Sunderland AFC both
       have seen a yellow card given for the same offence.
       Against Sheffield United their goalkeeper attempted a quick kick
       out of the penalty area.A Sunderland forward was retreating and
       not directly interfering with play.The had fully released the
       ball and kicked it towards the Sunderland player who just could
       not feasibly have got out of the way and was hit.Play was
       stopped and the forward booked.
       On Sunday against Portsmouth the same again however this time
       the goalkeeper concerned was Sunderland's Anthony Patterson who
       released the ball and a Portsmouth forward who was so far away
       that any form of physical contact would be impossible and once
       again the ball hit the forward and he was booked.
       What am I missing here ? There appeared to be no deliberate
       attempt by either forward to gain advantage or am i wrong ?
       Happy to discuss.

       I would've said that if it wasn't deliberate then just go back
       and retake the kick with no more fuss. However if deliberate
       yellow card would be suitable.

       Well you can't just go back and re-take a clearance.  If an
       offence has been committed it must be a free kick.  If there was
       no offence it is play on.
       However there is a misconception that if a free kick is given
       for preventing the goalkeeper releasing the ball then a yellow
       card is mandatory.  It's not.
       A yellow card is only required if the action was reckless.

       Haven’t seen the incidents but, if the player is clearly
       retreating / getting out the way / makes no attempt to block /
       has no opportunity to be the distance,  and the taker chooses to
       take it quickly which goes wrong, that’s tough luck and play on
       - no doubt causing uproar if they score …!
       If (as tends to be at pro level!) the player is actually
       knowingly too slow moving away and thus preventing a quick FK
       (usually as a few are out of position), it could be a YC.
       Equally often have to watch for players ‘trying’ to take a quick
       FK with no genuine attempt (nothing actually on) in an attempt
       to get the player booked.
       Ref has to be super alert / aware to what’s going on, and some
       loose focus as it’s a defensive FK.
       Certainly lower down the pyramid, unless blatant prevention, a
       diplomatic decision is often to stop call it 50/50, tell
       everyone to chill out and retake (although not technically
       correct …)

       Well said, Ayew's 2nd yellow for Crystal Palace v Liverpool in
       Dec 2023 is a glaring example of a side taking a quick free kick
       in order to get a player carded. That was a game changer as
       well. Referee was Andrew Madley who fell for it and was
       supported by the VAR.

       I think you must have been mistaken on Sunday there was a player
       who challenge patterson from behind, I'm guessing you must have
       been closer to the north stand

       The incident v Sheffield United, he is trying to get block it
       and stop a counter attack

       My main complaint from the past few games has been guessing when
       shirt pulling is and isn't a penalty

       LOL, those two videos certainly pour cold water on the OP's
       claims.  They are both very clear offences by the attacking
       players and absolutely correct to be penalised.

       True but stopping a promising attack in your opponent's own
       penalty area is tough one to sell!
