It isn't a trick, there were a few seasons in the 80s when refs didn't show red cards when they sent someone off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 12, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 12, 2021 I assume Jose Antonio Reyes was the next and so the first to be shown a red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobarp Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Moran therefore became the first player ever to be dismissed from the field of play in an FA Cup Final.[6]Willis said: "It's never caused me a problem. I've never felt guilty about it, because it was the right decision. I just wish it hadn't happened because I'd rather be remembered for other reasons." (The Red Card was not shown, because Red & Yellow Cards were not shown in English Football League matches between January 1981 and August 1987.)
