A consultation about excessive grappling in the penalty area and how to deal with it will take place at the end of the season, referees' chief Howard Webb says. (BBC)
Referees will be shown how to waggle their fingers to greater effect; how to make the players stand still and take their telling-off like a man and how then to retreat to a safe refereeing spot and where else to concentrate their gaze while the mayhem resumes in the goalmouth. As a final threat, everyone involved in the six yard box fracas will be kept in at half time or after the match for five minutes or until the real culprit owns up. Offenders must learn the lesson that inappropriate means inappropriate! |  |

On that subject can someone explain something, as I’m at a loss.
It’s been said on here, and I’ve heard the same reported by sky sports that the ref can’t do anything because the ball isn’t in play. Fair enough, get that.
If that’s the case though, can someone explain yellows and reds being dished out historically after the final whistle? The ball isn’t in play then either, but the ref is able to punish offending players. |  |

Players can be disciplined for unsportsmanlike conduct or dissent or violent conduct with a card or similar while a ball is out of play but it does not result in a free kick or penalty.
Most of what occurs in the penalty area pre corner would not result in a card. |  | | |

Ref to visit dressing rooms before KO to lay the law down ….if he or his assistant see players with arms around waist or shoulders then he will give a penalty immediately, two offences in same game player will be sent off !
It’s got too ridiculous now and resembles Grid Iron / Rugby . | | | |

There was an example on match of the day many years ago when a player had the ball near the touch line, but dribbled it out of play just before an opposing player wiped him out.
The ref (correctly) awarded a throw in as the ball was out of play, but booked the player who took him out.
Alan Shearer had no idea of the rules and gave it the full “the ref doesn’t know what he is doing” after the game. |  | | |

Presumably Shearer wasn't aware of the rules when he booted Neil Lennon in the nut when he was off the pitch. |  | | |

Surely this is the perfect scenario where a sin bin would work wonders. |  |

The ref would have to really be on his toes to single out which offender above all deserved that sanction when they were all at it, though | |
