While we're on the subject of laws of the game, can a referee send off a
player who's already been substituted, if he leaves the bench, runs on the
pitch and twats an opposition player? If so who actually leaves the field
of play?
Not that I did this of course......but say I did, I was sent off and our
team had to pick a player to be removed.
Nobody should have had to leave the field of play. The "sending off" of a
substitued player is the same sort of thing as sending Wanker Warnock to the
stands. You should have been reported to your local FA for your heinous
conduct and duly suspended for x matches but the constitution of your team
on the park should have remained the same (though of course we know it's
hypothetical and you didn't actually do anything wrong and anyway it wasn't
you it was a mate who did it and you were just asking what should have
happened).
