I was a goalie. My team played against a Japanese team on some Puma sponsored tour of the UK. I think we were about 16.
Southwick Football Club, under the floodlights. I get the nod for the 2nd half.
They got a free-kick just outside the box. The guy hit a rocket towards the far post and I...
Have you watched it back? He got that first yellow for absolutely nothing because Taylor wanted to flex his authority. "Don't get in my face!". He wasn't in your face mate he's the captain asking a question about a separate incident. Answer him. Calm the situation down and get on with the game...
He got shown that yellow for absolutely nothing! A captain asking the ref "what about that then?". You expect a competent ref to at least engage with the captain and send everyone else away. It's a VAR decision and I think you're owed an explanation.
Pointing and saying "Don't get in my face"...
Right I've watched this back a LOT. I think the conversation went like this:
Dunk: "Over there? What about (that foul?) over there?" (or something)
Taylor: "Don't get in my face" (Issues Yellow Card)
Dunk: "You're a complete BELLEND"
Dunk: Realises. Apologises and tries to shake Taylors hand...
No way that’s true IMO. Ref reacted to him being to close to him and asking about a foul by the touchline? He looked surprised and whipped out the yellow.
I think as captain he deserves a bit more leniency from the ref. But he also has a responsibility not to call him red-card worthy names.
Be interesting to see how many people he red cards for dissent in the coming months/years. I doubt it’ll be many.
He didn't seem to mention the exact same issue when the Forest player was awarded a soft as shit pen as the ball was floated to Verbruggen. Funny that eh
Also to note, you could see Dunk saying to him "Everyone says it" over and over again. So be interesting to hear what he said. Of course Taylor wouldn't use common sense and calm the situation down though would he....
Not so much in the cities. They often have little neighbourhood days where they take care of an area in the suburbs/countryside though.
Weed burners are pretty popular.
