When Rooney was sent off against Fulham, he kicked the corner flag clear out of the ground . I refereed an under 12, match (as a Dad taking his turn) the following Sunday to have a kid do exactly what Rooney had done because I gave a goal kick instead of a corner.
Players should just think of the example they set to youngsters.

Did the kid go out that night a pay for a granny hooker too?
I must admit when I saw it I thought it was dangerous. That corner flag could have gone anywhere with so many people about. I understand the passion but he deserved a booking and a talking to.
Yes, he deserved a booking but didn't get one. It is a bit pointless reflecting back on a booking that should have been awarded. A sending off, yes, but a booking!
Nice to hear that Mr. Hackett is still being as big of a twat as ever, after all these years.
Isn’t that the title of a Paul Simon track?
What makes you say that - examples please. Keith was one of the very best referees that I had the honour to run a line for.
Over thirty years ago now, can't remember specific examples, other than the usual tireless treating big clubs/certain teams differently - no consistency in decisions, obviously a bit of a narcissist, came across as arrogant. Could not believe when he got made Ref's 'supremo', and he's still banging on now. All about him.
