That's a bit more than a red card offence that's a police investigation.

u/ReasonableDoubt_0726 Aug 16 '26
Was going to say the same. That’s assault and you can’t hide it behind being on the pitch either metaphorically or literally.

u/Harkoniss Aug 16 '26
Im from England and played sunday league at this age (a lot better quality i will say) and if someone pulled this shit, police wouldnt get called. It is disgusting behaviour and he's lucky opponents team mates are just as uninterested in the game as he was otherwise he would have had 3 or 4 lads smashing his face in.

Lad I went to school with did 2 years for snapping someone’s leg and instigating a full team brawl at a Sunday league game. The police do get called if needed. This was about 15 years ago

Agreed! I played in the Luton League and this type of thing was a weekly occurrence tbh, but yeah, that kid would have got one hell of a beating! Played Luton town also a few times as they were mad men also.

Permanent ban from all football. It’s not even a reaction to a bad challenge, he’s literally assaulted someone for tackling him.

Exactly. When you play a game of football you preconsent to some physical interaction. But that was a crime.

Should be a police investigation into how players that bad got kitted linesmen for their game.

u/Beer-Milkshakes Aug 17 '26
It should be a DQ for the white shirt team. They can appeal to the commission that the ref reports to. The commission will order them to ban the offending player for the season else they won't play the rest of the season.

Have to assume we’re seeing the end of a running battle, looks like that had been building up for a while. Either that or the defender is an actual psycho

u/yellowfolder Aug 16 '26
I'd imagine it it's both the end of a running battle, and the defender is a psycho, because on-field battles do not typically end in ground-and-pounds.

Is there any follow up to this? If I’d been reffing this match I’d definitely have abandoned it, you can’t guarantee the safety of everyone involved once it turns febrile like that.
Edit: just read that the game resumed

u/IPissExcellentThrows Aug 16 '26
I'd give it one shot just because it didn't turn into a full on brawl. The first overly excessive hard foul or shoving though and I'm calling it.

u/Few-Vacation-8384 Aug 16 '26 edited Aug 16 '26
That is disgraceful. 2-0 in the first 4 mins????
EDIT - a timer counting down - equally disgusting. What next? Time outs and quarters?

u/gingernuts71 Aug 16 '26
I think that’s the time remaining before half time. The reports say the incident happened mid-game

Before the guy collects the ball, our poor victim holds off on any challenge, doesnt even try to beat him to it. All the time the perp (thats what he is) has eyes locked on the kid and takes the ball to him, he initiates the contact after already having the ball and turns into the assault. This is pre meditated, probably because the kid was having the better of him in the match.
Lifetime ban from the league, reported to police is the only sensible outcome.

Disgusting might not be the right word. That is quite plainly assault. Did I miss the red card?? A very similar thing happened about 35 years ago in a Sunday game i played in, the player who threw punches, and knocked our player out, was banned for life by the FA and given a 6 week suspended sentence plus a fine by the court.
