Player scores a hat-trick, claps himself, gets sent off

  • He does run into the Stands though so if he was on a Yellow Card it was a pretty daft thing to do

    Which in my opinion makes the whole thing even more brilliant

    This is why people say that footballers aren't very clever! Brilliant!

    Stupid refs and their letter of the law crap.

    I'd have more sympathy if it was an original celebration.
  • Remember a few years back someone scored a last minute winner in a Bundesliga local derby game, took his shirt off and jumped into the crowd to celebrate. Ref booked him for taking his shirt off and booked him again for going into the crowd.
  • Haha, absolutely no protestation from his teammates about the sending off!
    "Yeah, fair enough"
    "I'd have done the same, ref"

    Referees should use common sense in these situations.

    If it causes problems in the Stands and Stewards are forced to get involved then yes maybe a card should be shown.

    a Dutch player was sent off for farting last weekend ... lucky this doesn't apply to spectators .. some CAFC away fans would never be allowed to attend if this were the case

    It is very funny but a stupid over reaction by the ref!
