When someone starts with ‘probably a silly question’......... what they aren’t looking for is some smart ass reply like that. You may have just made a new ref who isn’t feeling confident even less so, you may not have. Either way, get off your high horse

Its the perfect reply and follows best practise at issuing a sanction at grass roots football
Only the ref himself will know why he gave the card so self reflection is the best learning tool
Had he followed the taught procedure, he would already have the answer to his own question
No high horse here but you learn from your own mistakes and if you have not given a reason for the caution at the time, you have created a rod for your own back
The ref, reading my take on it, hopefully will not make the same mistake again, i.e, he has now learned .
You can deem it smart ass if you want but I await with interest which part of what I typed is incorrect.
I also note your post provides no solution to the op, only a laughable attempt to start a rammy in a phone box.
RobOda has answered the question perfectly, no need for me to add to that. Your post is also factually correct. How you deliver those facts is often what defines support.
And starting a rammy in a phone box? Don’t flatter yourself.

And this post is a perfect example of both cases of stating the facts with a supportive tone and a 'smart arse' tone. For me appropriately used and well delivered in both cases@RobOda has the right answer. If it happened to both be persistent infringement and reckless, then pick one (I'd probably go reckless, but no big deal). You warned the player about PI?
If it was just another minor foul and it was PI, then that's your caution.
Oh have a cry.
The OP asked a question. Your response was 'you should know'.
So yeah, absolute smart arse reply - a few too many posters are starting to show some real attitude to the new refs and making this site a bit hostile.
No stupid questions, but there are certainly stupid answers.

Cheers up Miley, it’s not personal.... what does Falkirks Finest expect?of course the answer is he should know, he is the only person in the globe who will know. nobody else
Your saying my answer is stupid? My answer is factually correct. Only the ref on this entire site, will know the answer
And, had he followed what am sure the procedure he was taught, he would not need to ask
You don't know the answer to the OP
I dont
The OP does.

It's not about being right or wrong in in the logic. It's about delivery. Many ppl have been sacked from their jobs for delivering the right thing the wrong way.In fairness to Ciley, whether you’re a new ref or old ref you should probably know why you’re cautioning a player. If you don’t know why you are, then you shouldn’t be issuing a caution ...
True. Good point.Ok I resisted the temptation for too long into this thread. It's not PI anymore it's PO. Move with the times
The transition from BUPA to SPA was pretty quick bit this one might take a while me thinks.
