I'll Decide ...
Bizarre event. But correct in law.
Similar to that (a few years old) training video we've probably all seen where the spectator runs onto the pitch (ref has already stopped play) at Dorchester(?). The stewards are all chasing around on the pitch after this idiot without much success. One of the players rugby tackles him as he goes by to bring him to the ground in order that the stewards can pounce and lead him away. The referee then promptly shows said player a red card for VC. Correct in law, but again a bizarre thing to do in the circumstances.
