Now, are you ready for the reason? He forgot his coin, so the captains did "Rock, Paper, Scissors" to decide the "toss".
Sums up the FA perfectly. A referee uses initiative to determine who gets to KO a football match, which lets be honest, in the great scheme of things doesn’t mean much. He is banned for three weeks.
Other referees miss blatant handballs, reckless challenges, players removing their shirts after scoring FFS and many other transgressions which can and do directly influence the outcome of games, yet fuck all is done about it.
A farce
Would it not have made more sense for him to get a coin from someone on the touchline?
Nah fuck that Scatman, how cool would it be to watch em deciding kick off with Paper, Stone or Scissors
