I reffed a rather unpleasant game last weekend, which resulted in 2 red cards for the home team inside the 1st 30 minutes (1 for serious foul play, 1 for 2 x YC). I also had to overrule the CAR for an opposition goal, which resulted in the flag being thrown down and no one willing to replace them from the home team.
In this league, I have to do a match report to go direct to the league to include any disciplinary action, and any general notes. As it wasn't a nice match to referee, I included all details, and gave them a 2/10 for respect (I don't think I've ever given below a 6 before)
Fast forward to last night, and I see through the wonderful world of Facebook that this team has now been suspended by the league for their conduct in this game, using my match report as the evidence. Cue lots of comments on FB about my performance (without mentioning my name), but mainly vitriol towards the league.
Whilst I don't regret anything I wrote in my match report, I would have thought it would have been nice of the league to let me know that this was the plan of action, rather than just seeing it online?
Has anyone else had anything similar?
Oh yeah, from the letter the team posted online, they were also fined for giving me a 1/100 rating!
