15.1(i) - Grade A-E deliberate or reckless physical contact with a match official (e.g. placing hand on arm to attract attention)

He barely touched the ref, a simple warning from the ref on the field should suffice.

It happens too often with Galr that was the issue. Grade A. He will use his EGP so wont miss a game. Hopefully stop him from doing it.

Fair enough, probably won't do him any harm then.

I agree it should be a penalty if they are citing accidental contact.
The refs should be protected so I will always side with the ref. but if it is penalised immediately it will just calm things down on the day.

You forgot to mention your injuries'

Been waiting for Gale to get cited for it all season, he does it most games. Will do him good I think and might, hopefully, stop him from doing it. It's embarrassing to watch at times.

As good as he is, Gale does suffer from a bit of "Little Man Syndrome" exacerbated by "Early Onset Baldness". The shape of his head also means he can't go for the shaved option so has to rely on the comb over.
Must take some guts to come out of the house, especially on windy days.

still a good player though

Swings and roundabouts. David Beckham's soccer skills are long gone but the squeeky woman's voice will be with him to the end.

WTF has Beckham to do with Gale?

Beckham has nothing to do with Gale but the green eyed ones will use any excuse to get a dig in.

Right back at you. For any out there of my age I think you'll find that TJ's style and looks when he goes clear is identical to (1st sub 4 minute miler) Roger Bannister but in modern gear.
