HE MIGHT BE A GOOD LUCK OMEN !!

[Alty Dave]

Let,s hope he does better than the last game. We are due a decent ref!!

[Jimmy Hill]

I actually thought that Tuesday's referee did a decent job.

He made very few mistakes.

[Alty Dave]

Unfortunately I am not a ref.

However he was not consistant, how can you give a penalty but no other punishment?

They also did handball, no caution, and also kicked the ball away! no caution.

A penalty is awarded for a foul in the penalty area.

Just as you can have fouls anywhere else on the pitch that don't warrant yellow cards, the same can be true within the penalty area.

Although that is undoubtedly true, I'm sure if someone was kicked in the face elsewhere on the pitch a yellow card would have been issued at least.

Sice the need for intent was removed from all penal offences except handball within Law 12 the very fact that the player, albeit inadvertantly; kicked Joe made it an offence. It being in the penalty area made it a Penalty.

The challenge however obviously was  not considered to be 'reckless' in the opinion of the Referee and as this is a necessity when cautioning for challenges no caution was issued.

With regard to the perceived lack of a caution for kicking the ball away a caution is only appropriate if the action of kicking the ball away is a) an act of dissent or b) an attempt to delay the restart of the game. Unfortunately Asa kicking the ball away delayed the taking of a free kick and hence by definition the restart of the game.
 
I hope that this helps clear up any confusion over this issue
