Football rules question 11:23 - Apr 14 with 786 views | The_Flashing_Smile | If you went in for a dangerous sliding tackle and missed the ball and the opposition player... but took out your own player, would that be given as a foul? And would it be a free kick to the opposition? Drop ball? Could you even get booked/sent off for fouling your own player and has this ever happened? |  |

Football rules question on 11:26 - Apr 14 with 754 views | TresBonne | Nah, no punishment given. I actually did this once. Was playing RB against this tekky little winger. Ball ran loose so I slid in to win it, facing one another, and the wingers nipped in to flick it past me. I've slid on and completely wiped out my own team mate who was tracking him. To make things worse it was our big Spanish 6 foot 6 DM who's built like a brick house. I came off worse and he didn't speak to me much after that one. Even called me Puta Madre...I think it means I'm beautiful. Thinking back to it, I actually had to go off the pitch for a bit as his knee went right into the crown jewels. [Post edited 14 Apr 11:26]

Football rules question on 11:27 - Apr 14 with 746 views | Nthsuffolkblue | I am not sure about fouling your own player. I think there is a possibility that the intent on an opponent without the contact could be a card too. Of course, when it comes to violent conduct (which you may well be describing here) the precedent was set by 2 of our former players while at Newcastle - Bowyer and Dyer. |  |

Football rules question on 11:46 - Apr 14 with 672 views | ArnoldMoorhen | You are supposedly penalised for the action you took, not the result, so if the ref considered it to be reckless, a yellow, if the ref considered it be use of excessive force then it is a red. Direct free kick or penalty, depending on whereabouts on the pitch. |  | |  |

I don’t think it needs to even be excessive force. I think a Spurs player sent off last season because he went in to tackle someone and caused serious injury to his opponent? From memory he just tripped him up, was a pure accident, but due to the fact he went in to cause contact he was sent off. Not sure whether I’m misremembering or not. [Post edited 14 Apr 11:55]

For a red card for a tackle it needs to be serious foul play, which in this case could be because of "excessive force". If the referee sees it as reckless, but not excessive force, then it would be yellow. [Post edited 14 Apr 12:19]

Football rules question on 12:07 - Apr 14 with 558 views | usm | NO free kick specifically but you can definitely get carded for intent. Years ago I can remember a penalty being given against my Saturday afternoon park side for 'intent'. The ref's explanation was that in his opinion our player had intended to foul an opposition player. 🤷🏽♂️. It didnt go down well. They scored but we still won. I think the ref felt sorry for them - and I told him so, which I think earned me a booking. |  |

Yeah I was thinking of that as another scenario (fisticuffs rather than a foul wasn't it?) Can't quite remember, were they booked or sent off? |  |
