Well technically under the LOTG you could put it under a Foul and abusive gesture, although this where what many refs call “law 18” (aka common sense) would kick in, and you’d probably go over have a word, and then just play on… As from what I’ve read he did it off of the pitch at a goal kick and was at cover when it occurred. Although after seeing how local it was, I think I actually know the official who did this game

What baffles a bit about this story is that, guessing the keepers youngish about 20-30 years of age, why he'd need a Jimmy after 30 minutes of the second half unless he'd had a couple of pints in the clubhouse at half-time, when older blokes like us who've had many pints before and more at H-T can generally wait till full time. (Well most games)

At uni, after a Saturday night out at the Union bar (Shaking Stevens before he hit the big time) only 10 of us turned up for the match next morning. Bitterly cold, raining, playing top of the league, and we had all drank over 10 pints the night before. We had to take it in turns to leave the pitch to puke up in a ditch next to the hedge. 0-0 at half time and we all felt much better and talked about winning it. We lost 5-0. Should have stayed hung over.

I take it you asked for the refs permission to leave the field of play though, or did you get a few bookings? 😂

He knew we were students, par for the course. He would have had to abandon the game as most of us had two episodes at least. This was in the days where you only got a severe warning for head butting an opponent.
