Dubious kick-off!

Saw this posted on another forum...

Looks like the sub keeper was still on the pitch celebrating with his team mates when the game had restarted, something the assistant appears to pick up on as he was pointing at the player. Also the assistant was blocked off from following play due to the number of coaching staff and substitutes still on the line.

Brainfart moment from the ref to allow the restart me thinks!

Feel sorry for the referee, don't know what he was thinking allowing play to restart.

ooooft bad bad bad, dunno why the 4th official and the ar allowed the subs to come on the pitch, and the referee should always check with the ars before allowing ko

There's not many complaints though which is suprising

It isn't a case of allowing them on. There's not much chance of stopping them.

Good point. I wouldn't like being called an ars though!!!
