Playing sports is getting difficult day on day…
Stinky F-ness rises from this report that paints the pain and sufferings of a footballer, who was meted out a ‘yellow card’ for farting on the field just at the time when a penalty shot was being taken….and the insane referee fined his team 97 pounds for the act….the goalie was shown Red card after he declared the decision as “Worst he had seen in years” and one more poor chap who held his fart…and referee did not like the shocked-shitty look on his face…and he too was out of the field……
Gross injustice I say… these are all natural phenomenon..well beyond control of mortal human…and passing wind is so very natural…after all its just CO2..isnt it there in all cola bottles….
I wonder if they start having referral systems in Football..alike Cricket… surely the poor guy would have contested the decision and referred it…and the third umpire with all technology in the world at his disposal (snickometer, hotspot, hawkeye et al) would have made the correct and natural decision…
Football has so much to learn from cricket….
