[Football] The Final whistle (almost)

[B-right-on]

Think this needs to be renamed as the "well its the end of the game for now until everyone is back home and in bed" whistle.

1 penalty

1 red

After the game has finished.

Not even going to mention the "yes you can take the free kick, blows, scores, not a goal after checking VAR" whistle.

The 90th minute is the new 80th minute for early leavers and missing the action.

I am pretty sure Gary Hart got sent off at Withdean once after the final whistle or have I made that up?

How long after the final whistle can a player be booked, words with the ref in the car park!

once the referee has left the pitch.

once the referee has left the pitch.

Also players and officials from clubs... once everyone has left field of play it becomes a misconduct issue and would be recorded accordingly.

Yep, t'was always the way for Albion fans, we've never been known for taking the easy route.

Haven’t players been carded in the tunnel after a game?

Haven’t players been carded in the tunnel after a game?

That's what I was thinking but perhaps others were still on the pitch?

I believe the ref can send a player off in the tunnel after a game, his authority to do so remains until the players are in their dressing room.

It’s only decisions that require the restarting of the match after the half time or full time whistle that cannot be made if the ref has left the pitch (if the ref had left the pitch at full time vs Man Utd then he couldn’t have restarted the game for the penalty).
