I did get tempted to back a red card in my last game but after spending hours online I couldn’t find a single bookie covering my match.

If you are involved in any games at contrib or above, whether as a referee or observer, you are banned from betting on any football activities worldwide.
There was doubt about level 4s initially as they referee at step 5 and below, but because they assistant at steps 3 and 4, competitions that are subject to the ban, they are also subject to the worldwide ban.
