The way we pick up cards and the numerous occasions the ref turns a blind eye to similar opposition fouls is stark. Bernie got booked for a trip after the guy was past him. How many times did our players beat a Dipper and be on their way before being taken out, the only difference being no card. And in these games refs decide, I am convinced, that no one is going off wearing a red shirt. Had Bernie 'grounded' some other Dipper in a nothing foul he would be going! In high profile games with a world wide audience there are several addenda added to the LotG that don't apply in a League 2 mid-table encounter. And, of course, you have the assorted idiots and goons in the studio suggesting that the ref has spoiled the game by sending X off. The ref might 'spoil' the game but only by applying the LotG.
