I don't understand how this is a sending off, Is it not a case of advantage? If a player is one on one with the goal keeper and goes past the keeper only to be fouled before gettin up and still scoring do you think the goal keeper would still be sent of because I don't. The goal keeper is still trying to prevent the goal and the goal would be still allowed.
Its one or the other, a goal or a penalty and a sending off.

If a player fouls someone in the box i,e, a penalty and the fouled player doesnt stay down, gets up and scores the referee is entitled to play advantage and go back after and send the offending player off.But if the ball was over the line before the foul occured it might be a different story but the ref is still entitled to book or send someone off if the intention was dangerous or an attempt to cheat under the "ungentlemanly conduct "rule???

Cast your mind back to the Champions League Final Arsenal v Barcelona and the Jans Lehman incident.
The Referee would have been within the laws to allow play to continue, allow the goal and still send off Lehman.
Differant scenario I know to a deliberate attempt to prevent the ball entering the goal by a defender handling or punching it, but I personally would view it as serious foul play and would allow the goal and send the defender off.

Bunratty should be ashamed of themselves today...Because of their complete stupidity the game was called off and I wouldnt really blame the ref. What colour jerseys did Bunratty think Newmarket were goin to show up in for f*** sake like?They got plenty of time to get a 2nd set too.One or two phone calls the night before and all this could have been avoided

How thick can you get, and Bunratty goin away buildin an Astro Turf

,it'd be more in their line to buy a set of jerseys...total lack of organisation. Knowin the Clare League now they'll robably go off,give Bunratty the chance to replay the game and then come April they'll be moanin about a backlog in fixtures again when really the obvious thing to do is award the points to Newmarket.This isn't the first time this has happened with this team tho,last year in a Clare Cup game the very same problem - clash of kits,no proper 2nd set but they were bailed by their neighbours

Human error here, apparently the wrong set of gear was taken by the youths manager, Bunratty eventually produced a 3rd set of gear but referee didnt want to know.
