In my game today (Lets say reds v yellows), I had yellow club assistant moan because he felt the red attacker was intimidating and potentially endangering the keeper by sliding in on him when the keeper had an easy collection (he had to slide/dive for it but not under real pressure). The thing is, the red player slid in about 3 yards from the keeper. Wasn't rash, off the floor or anything. Yes the player was being stupid, but he was in my opinion, no where near the keeper and at no point endangering.
As always you get people who say they're refs etc, but he kept saying he was. And based on this was saying I should have dealt with it and given a card for it. He kept saying you can't go and slide in and intimidate players like that and saying he would have.
Am I wrong? Should I have given a free kick and cautioned him if not worse?
I mean, he was no where near the keeper and was certainly in control of himself. Just being stupid was my opinion.
Also in same match, with reds winning by 4 goals, the reds kept laughing at the yellows whenever they made a mistake or when a red player done a bit of fancy skill and beat the yellows. Again the yellow assistant was moaning saying it's unsporting and I should get a grip on it. For this, I had a quiet chat with the captain when he was preparing for a free kick just asking to be a bit more sporting and they know they'll go on to win, no need to rub it in too. They soon shut up but again the assistant wanted a card. Would anyone give a card for this?
