I tell both managers before a friendly K.O. (both together) that all football laws apply, including any yellows or reds and they will be sent in and reported and i ask them to tell their players. If i get a phone call from the home manager confirming the match i tell him then and if he can to contact the away manager as well, so far (fingers crossed) not had a problem yet..... although i do get the odd player say to me " but it's only a friendly"
