[QUOTE="BobbyM, post: 952639, member: 73737"] And if you have someone who gets sent off in the 79th minute it implies they’ve been a good respectable player for the time up to that point. I’d struggle to think of an alternative; a team should be punished as and when they commit fouls. I also suspect (although don’t have any statistical data to back this up) but referees may view an incident differently depending on when in the game it is. So he may be more likely to give a yellow early on whereas later in the game he might give a red for it. In terms of punishing the offending team, there’s also the sanctioning after when players may be suspended for a period of time. [/QUOTE]
