Noticed that as well. Thought there must’ve been an offside where an advantage could be played.

Thoughts on the red? I was watching it at the time and on seeing the first replay thought he could be in bother. The more I watch it the less sure I am though.

Dissent according to BBC Radio Scotland

I get where you're coming from with this, but I'd also say that arguably any foul is USB if you think about it in a certain way. However we're not going to caution for every foul.

Play on for me

Yeah what I'm getting at is that it sounds like he did direct it at either you or one of your assistants, but tries to get out of it by claiming it was directed elsewhere - which is obviously irrelevant.

As I read it OFFINABUS can be directed at anyone so, even if he has said it to an opposition player instead of an official, you’re still correct in law to send him off.

Slightly risky if you lose sight of the offender/didn’t catch their number to call them back as then it’s visible to everyone that you’ve planned to card someone. If the card isn’t out though then you can just about get away with it although there may be some moaning if it looked a fairly...

Same 2p coin for the 100 or so games I’ve done so far. Gets kept in a plastic tub with my whistle, pen and cards.

Another thing I tend to consider with advantage and getting a shot away is the nature of the shot itself. If for example the player has been shoved and is off balance then the shot will most likely be affected by this so I'll tend to pull it back for the foul. If the ball falls to a teammate...

Would it? It looked to me like the last touch came off the lower thigh so it wouldn't be a pass back.
