MH ! . As someone who I respect,and as a Referee knows the rules appertaining to a situation like the one under discussion .
Stanleyjosh says that had whoever was representing the Reds at halftime had not agreed to
carry on the game , then the Club would have been sanctioned.
Now, to someone who doesnt know the rules whatsoever, will you please try to explain to me if this is in fact the truth of the matter ?.
If it is, then it would certainly have had a bearing on the actions taken on behalf of the Reds.
It would certainly have been good reason to carry on linesman-less, and I can forget all about it and enjoy a late lunch at ease with myself !.
