Rather reminds me of ten Mansfield players being 'booked' by
referee Kevin Howley at the end of a FA Cup tie at Crystal
Palace in 1962 for lining up to sarcastically applaud him off
the field. I was there. The goalie didn't get there quickly
enough to join in. Game ended 2-2 and Mansfield won the replay
7-2.

There was a rugby game where a referee issued 2 reds towards the
end of the game. Conveniently the camera was recording wild life
and not the incident. The home team contested the red card and
at the hearing a QC (!!) questioned whether the ref could have
seen both incidents clearly enough to justify the red! At that
level, 4 I think, the appeal was upheld. How you can see 23 red
card offences I do not know.
In this incident, the league were furious so charged the club
for failing to control their players. Club lost 5 points which
relegated them! Justice.

Be interesting to see which players play in their next few games
if all of them are suspended!!
