Ladies & Gents,
Incident at a WNL game I was AR for:
Attacker and defender challenge for the ball. Both go off the pitch (behind the goal). Attacker gets up but defender is down injured. I say clear and loud 'if you're coming back on tell me now' to which I get no response so I said something like 'you're off the pitch and no longer active' as I thought she would be getting treatment. As I then thought she was no longer in play I got back up with the second from last defender as per normal.
Defender then walks back onto the pitch totally throwing my position and slowly ambles up to play. When I spotted (about when she was 6 yards in) I then took up my new position.
Thankfully I noticed early or this could have caused issues.
What would you guys have done?
In wonderful hindsight I feel maybe I should have stayed down with the defender and considered them still active and stayed there. I feel YC for entering the pitch without consent would have been harsh and not 'what the game expects'.
Interested to get some thoughts on this.
