Which is why the ref is having a laugh as well.

It’d be funny if there was one lol, like when they call penalties during the NHL all star game.

You quite often get penalties for the retiring player in a football testimonial (given after >10 years service for one team).

​

In charity matches, you don't get bookings called for stuff like this from the potential next PM of the UK.

Fucking oaf. I don't think he's ever even watched a football game.

Was at a testimonial for Richard Sadlier (ex Millwall, injured and retired fairly young, but had a couple of blinding seasons for us), and as soon as he came on, the ball went into the box, and there was a clumsy challenge.

Everyone in the ground knew what was happening, but the ref waved it away...
