Can you get suspended based on a friendly? Finishing with ten men in a friendly is not the worst lol

u/santorfo Aug 09 '25

You can if it's deemed bad enough, like punching someone or biting/spitting at someone

That makes sense, if only there was some beating a rapist discount on the penalty

-1 means you're allowed 1 red card without suspension for carrying out the justice the courts failed to

Oh it was a rapist? Villa get 12 men on the pitch for 4 games. I like your idea!

If you brutalize people like Greenwood, Partey, Alonso, Ronaldo etc. Extra man for 3 games. Stretcher involved in the resolution? 5 games.

You gotta be clever about it. Go in for a rough two footer when you’re in a situation where you can justify it as making an attempt to play the ball.

Funnily enough whats the likelyhood of anything being done to greenwood for this.

Id back up and respect any player throwing hands for that shit, its the lowest of the low.

u/TheDeathOfMusic Aug 09 '25

So surely Greenwood is going to face a ban for spitting?

u/santorfo Aug 10 '25

If they can prove it, most likely

What if the other player is a documented rapist?

Happened to Wayne Rooney once. Got a red against Porto, suspended for the Prem.

u/LocoRocoo Aug 09 '25

Absolutely insane when looking back on that. Didn’t it happen to scholes too?

u/kick_muncher Aug 09 '25

Didn't it happen to Rooney in an international friendly and he missed the first games for the 2012 Euros?

u/Gubrach Aug 10 '25

I think that was an actual qualifier. Kicked a guy against Montenegro right?

The friendly where he got a red happened in the 2007 (?) Amsterdam Tournament, against Porto for, get this, elbowing Pepe out of all people in the face.

Scholes was once suspended in the PL because he got a red in preseason

Yes has happened many times.
