Yeah, that's kind of correct but it is more nuanced than most realise. For example if the foul was trying to stop a counter-attack or similar then yes, no need to issue a yellow card as by playing advantage the offender hasn't succeeding in preventing the attack.So I was at a referee development session last night and the national league ref said that if there is a cynical foul and you play on the caution doesn’t happen
if you stop play then it does
My lad and I thought this must be wrong but I’m thinking about it now and it is to encourage teams to take advantage of the situation I think rather than complain at the tackle
We are checking but that was exactly what was said which would explain the scenario above and mean we were the numptys not the ref
I’ve checked and it’s not on the list for cautionable offences in its own rightnot from what i've seen
Just put the law above and it’s exactly what you’re saying and exactly what happened a couple of times last nightYeah, that's kind of correct but it is more nuanced than most realise. For example if the foul was trying to stop a counter-attack or similar then yes, no need to issue a yellow card as by playing advantage the offender hasn't succeeding in preventing the attack.
In certain other situations though you would still issue a card.
I'm sure you are correctI’ve checked and it’s not on the list for cautionable offences in its own right
i know it’s been said in a Reffing environment
Me too it’s cheatingI'm sure you are correct
i think it should be automatic booking no matter or when
Surely teams would be more encouraged to take advantage of the situation if they know the foul will receive the proper punishment as well?So I was at a referee development session last night and the national league ref said that if there is a cynical foul and you play on the caution doesn’t happen

I don’t write the lawsSurely teams would be more encouraged to take advantage of the situation if they know the foul will receive the proper punishment as well?
Say early in the game, you'd often be better off getting the player booked and them walking a tightrope for the rest of the game. Very few advatnages actually result in goals.
Wasn't aimed at you specifically, just you posted the rileI don’t write the laws
it’s not a yellow if advantage is played
I know but that’s not what the law says about a foul in a promising positionWasn't aimed at you specifically, just you posted the rile
Just pointing out that if that is the position then why would a player take th advantage when they'd be much better off stopping and getting the player booked.
Even if play has continued as therefore the player has failed to disrupt or whatever, it an have a small effect on a player's balance, spped, acceleration etc and just that split second could be the difference between scoring and not.
It should be a booking regardless.
And I'm saying the law is wrong and should be changed.I know but that’s not what the law says about a foul in a promising position
I’m just trying to help people not get too upset when a ref follows the laws of the game
OkAnd I'm saying the law is wrong and should be changed.
No. That’s only for other teamsSo, if an opposition player is through on goal, can Fadz two foot one or maybe two of their better players with impunity, as the ref says it's an advantage to the opposition to let play carry on?!?!?!
No if it’s a dogso it’s still a yellow if an advantage is playedSo, if an opposition player is through on goal, can Fadz two foot one or maybe two of their better players with impunity, as the ref says it's an advantage to the opposition to let play carry on?!?!?!
No if it’s a dogso it’s still a yellow if an advantage is played
I’m sorry denial of a goal scoring opportunityI'll pretend I understand what a dogso is.
No if it’s a dogso it’s still a yellow if an advantage is played
He means the referee will book someone for the offence even if the player is man's best friend. Even more heartless than we thoughtI'll pretend I understand what a dogso is.
so it’s only not a booking when the player is stopping a promising attackI’m sorry denial of a goal scoring opportunity
OK I'll stopso it’s only not a barking when the player is stopping a promising attack
It’s a bit rrrrruff
Tell you’ve not been teaching all dayOK I'll stop
AWMUOOAN?I'll pretend I understand what a dogso is.
I've no problem with the ref. making the decision.The incident in front of the main stand when the ref was unsighted all it needed was"i didn't see it" from the ref "x put it out " from the linesman.The way he allowed the shenanigans with our free kick near the end before finaly booking Wilson and the diving by both sides which went unpunished.No control.
Well, this is completely backwards! All anybody wants is consistency in refereeing, and then they write it into the rules to be anything but!Here it is from loaf - laws of association football
what an arse headed law
Advantage
If the referee plays the advantage for an offence for which a caution/sending-off would have been issued had play been stopped, this caution/sending-off must be issued when the ball is next out of play. However, if the offence was denying the opposing team an obvious goal-scoring opportunity, the player is cautioned for unsporting behaviour; if the offence was interfering with or stopping a promising attack, the player is not cautioned.
It made a mockery of it Saturday, player fouled (badly), but ref plays on as Vik has the ball on the half way line, he is then surrounded by 5 or 6 Sunderland players and has no support, so where's the advantage in that
I think the old adage " play to the whistle" is the answerGenuine Q when the ref plays advantage can you just stop and take the free kick?
But if you deliberately choose not to take the advantage surely the ref can't just them continue the game saying he gave you the advantage.I think the old adage " play to the whistle" is the answer
Pretty certain if players knew this law they’d make sure they stopped to ensure the opponent got a cardYou often see it when players just stop and decide for themselves.
