It's hardly likely to bother us much 15:19 - Jan 16 with 335 views | GeoffSentence | But as referees are quite happy to book players for shirt removing goal celebrations, why don't they do they same for goal celebtrations during the pandemic. |  |

Yep. To say that you can train all week, play games with loads of contact, and that it is all safe, but you can't celebrate a goal, is an absolute nonsense. |  |

How many players are to be cautioned as part of that, the goalscorer only, half of the team for approaching the goalscorer? [Post edited 16 Jan 2021 15:38]

Regardless of that, as the authorities disapprove and want to stamp it out, why not allow the refs to book players that do it. At the moment there is this half-arsed regime where they say players shouldn't do it, but there is no sanction for doing it. They either need to say it's not a problem and to carry on, or do something about it. |  |
