Folkestone v Billericay sending off incident

Featured Replies

Why was he even trying to handle the ball? I am sure that it would be frustrating, but you can't handle the ball [attempt to] or lunge in at the keeper. I do think that officials should warn teams to play, as it's a form of time-wasting and I don't like how teams take the ball to the corner near the end. It should result in teams being warned about potentially giving a free kick away.

Annoying, yes! Funny too!! It's very daft, but it's not the worst sending off I have seen. When Jake was playing for a Sunday league team, some joker was being an idiot towards him. I asked him to stop from the sidelines, he was smug, I told him to cut it out and that it wasn't productive to make such comments about a teammate who is new to playing with the group.

Then another player of Jake's team, came running over to me and threatening to knock me out. ????

Referee gave him a straight red, said the player blamed me, but it showed how smart he was. 100% his fault, as banter is one thing, but this situation wasn't that. That's by far the stupidest sending off I have seen. Unwarranted, and obvious outcome. I should have had the team was being thrashed too.

I regret upsetting Jake, but I stand by my actions because I wasn't aggressive or rude.

I think he’s still retired. I read that he has a speech problem that affects how he talks. :(

@NiftyNick thanks for sharing the link. It's such a tough disease that can strike anyone. It must have been tough for Chris because his speech & his ability to communicate was what makes him so popular as a football pundit & reporter.

There must be thousands of other people have to live with this disease too, & it's great that Chris is ensuring that people like myself know more about it through his documentary.

It's great to know that his condition has shown signs of improvement too. I wish him luck with his new book.
