All we need is for all match officials is to apply FA rules properly.
Pulling an opponents shirt is a foul! Result should be a free kick - simple!
The game is cllaed "FOOTball" - the name does not mention ARMS!
There are other rules not applied that also spoil the beautiful game
Use of Elbows.... Obstruction...... Wrapping arms around opponents from set pieces in particular ......Foul and abusive language.
Some would argue that these are all just part of the "Moden Game" but they are against the rules!!!
Time to apply the basics and we will get better football, more goals and better entertainment.
By 'eck, I sound like a grumpy old git!!
