39 The King of Cards
"Shit."
Jack himself couldn't help but slap himself, it was too embarrassing. I was already young, I was already despised, and now is the time to establish my prestige. But such a "I'm sorry" hit Jack very hard. All the players will look down on Jack and will underestimate Jack from the bottom of their hearts.
Which player on the pitch is going to take Jack seriously now. A referee who says "I'm sorry" to a player has the right to officiate the game.
"Whew-"
Jack couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
"Prestige, prestige, prestige."
Jack didn't know what to do for a moment. Anyway, it looks like all the players on both sides are laughing at themselves. Jack can only keep cheering himself up, calm, calm, calm.
Although it was his first time as a referee, Jack had also been an assistant referee for two years. And when he was an assistant referee, he was besieged by coaches and players. So Jack slowly calmed himself down.
"Strict."
At this time, Jack remembered the words of his teacher, Jack Taylor. The current Jack doesn't have any prestige, and as a referee, don't say it's convincing, or even oral.
The only thing that can protect Jack is the referee's clothes. I'm the referee, I'm the referee. I don't have any prestige and I am not afraid, as long as I have the referee's clothes, I can make them feel their majesty.
"Yes, strictly, strictly."
At this point, there was only one way Jack could think of. Only the whistle on his chest can protect himself and establish his prestige. No matter how much you look down on me, no matter how much you disagree with me, I am also the referee.
When I thought about it, Jack was really, completely calm. Although Jack is also in favor of strict law enforcement, especially some outrageous actions. But now that this is the Anglo-African Union, Jack would have wanted to let some go. After all, the Anglo-African League is a low-level league in England, and the action here is already big.
But now it doesn't look like it's possible. For his own sake, he can only become an iron-faced Yama.
"Toot-"
Jack's whistle is getting busy. Anglo-African United, the lower league, is the best way to see a country's style of football. English football is all about physical confrontation, and that's what football is for them.
And the Anglo-African Union inherited that. Physical confrontation is very common in matches. In the Anglo-African Union, the referees don't care, because it's so common.
But Jack's whistle is very strict, as long as there is a body impact, a little too big, Jack's whistle will sound.
"Why?"
"Damn, I didn't foul at all."
"Shit, do you have a problem with your eyes?"
These players are really fed up because Jack's punishment is too harsh. Anyway, in their eyes, Jack is nothing, so they come up one by one to blame Jack's punishment.
In English football, it is common for players to scold the referee, and the England referee is very tolerant of such complaints and attacks from players. It's rare for a referee to give a yellow card to a player for scolding him.
Even Atkinson, who is known for his severity, and Andre Marriner, the "red card king", are the same. They will not be penalized for this. Unless it's a player who has physical movements.
When a player is angry, England's referee waits. When the player finishes scolding, he will smile and talk to the player about his heart and future. Anyway, the referee in England is very tolerant of these angry players. This is something that is lauded in European football. Although England's refereeing skills are not as good as those in other top European leagues, this people-friendly attitude is hugely praised.
But Jack was different. Jack had a dark face and looked coldly at the player who complained. Before he finished venting, he came to him and said, "You pressed the opponent when you jumped." ”
Actually, Jack really didn't want that. But now Jack has no choice, because a sentence of "I'm sorry" has made Jack already enter a dead end. In order to quickly turn the situation around, Jack could only do it this way.
This is called overkill. Many times in history have been overkill, and in the eyes of posterity, it is too extreme. But it is the right thing to do in the context of history. Because when you go to an extreme, if you want to change this situation, you can only take the method of overkill. Although the side effects are significant, they are also the most effective.
Therefore, historical development is a spiral development. The same is true for Jack now.
"That's because I jumped first, and I didn't press people. Have you seen clearly! ”
"At the same time, you also have the movement of waving your arms. Although it didn't hit anyone, it was also a foul action. It's a warning, and if the next time you wave your arm again, it's a yellow card. Also, don't question my decision. ”
Billy Matthews stared at Jack with wide eyes. Jack's "I'm sorry" has been made known to all the players. They all understood that the referee in front of them was an absolute rookie, and everyone was laughing at him in private. But I didn't expect him to .......
Looking at the cold Jack, Billy Matthews didn't have the slightest fear. It's just a rookie, thinking it's great to have a black face. So he said directly: "you, there was no foul in the first place." You don't have eyes. ”
Jack was furious. I am not qualified, and I was wrong just now. But these boys underestimate themselves so much, it's a complete mocking look. It's not going to go on like this.
"I'll write these words of yours into the report."
Jack said, holding up the yellow card. It was Jack's first yellow card of the game. Billy Matthews was furious at the yellow card, and his eyes were bursting with fire when he saw Jack.
"Mr. Referee, it's normal to scramble for a high-altitude ball and collide with your body. In the Anglo-African Union, a foul has never been awarded for such a collision. ”
Just as Billy Matthews wants to continue his argument with Jack, their captain Ismail comes up. Ismail grabbed Billy Matthews and then stepped forward to reason with Jack.
Hearing his words, Jack frowned slightly. Jack prefers a reckless man like Billy Matthews, because such a reckless man Jack can clean up in three or two hits as the referee. And it's too easy to find an excuse to clean up.
But the Ismail in front of him spoke in a clear manner, which was not easy for Jack to deal with. So Jack stiffened his face to make himself look serious, and then said, "Of course, a normal collision wouldn't be fouled, but he just waved his arms." I don't know how the other referees will give the penalty, but I only know that the action of waving the arm in the rules is a strict restriction. I can't get through it here. ”
Although Jack made a serious appearance, Jack was too young. Ismail in front of him was thirty-one years old, nearly ten years older than Jack. It's funny no matter how you look at it.
But Ismail didn't make as much noise as Billy Matthews. It's not that Ismail looks up to Jack, it's because of the referee's clothes that Jack is wearing. He looked down on a young referee like Jack, but it was precisely because of the young age of the other party that Ismael was careful.
Too young to be inexperienced. Maybe scare it, and the next penalty will be at a loss. But there is another situation, if you panic, maybe you play cards randomly. So he didn't want to irritate Jack. So although the sound was loud, it didn't have any words that stimulated Jack.
"Mr. referee, but not to show a yellow card."
Unlike the players in the Premier League, half of the players in the Anglo-African League are amateurs. They often have additional moves in the middle of the game, but it's not something they intentionally do, it's a matter of their training. It's like waving their arms when jumping over the ball. In the Anglo-African Union, this kind of action is all too common.
If such actions are all yellow cards, then it is estimated that half of the players in a game in the Anglo-African League will be sent off.
"I've warned him. But he didn't listen. I want you to tell your teammates that I'm the referee and make them obey my decision. ”
Jack said a lot to Ismail with a straight face. It wasn't until Ismael left that Jack breathed a sigh of relief. Fuck, it's not that easy to keep a straight face.
But Jack knew he wasn't going to be easy yet. In order to quickly improve his image, Jack can only choose to be a blackface referee. All the players in this game felt it.
Jack, a rookie referee, will enforce the law in the end. The law enforcement scale of the game is too strict, and a foul will be blown if the slightest action is bigger. In the Anglo-African League, they had never seen a referee as harsh as Jack.
"Not very successful."
Jack Taylor frowned as he watched Jack's game. Jack Taylor was to make Jack stern in the first game as a way to establish his prestige. But not so harsh.
Jack's sternness was a bit too much. As a result, the game was intermittent, and the highest appearance rate in the game was Jack. The first half was not over yet, and the total number of fouls committed by both sides had reached 26. Jack had already shown six yellow cards in the first half, and he was simply a card king.
Jack's strictness, not only did not get the awe of the players, but on the contrary, made both sides of the team unhappy. Jack Taylor saw this clearly.
"Don't be in a hurry. Jack is still too young. It was his first game, after all. ”
"But he's been an assistant referee for two years."
Jack Taylor has high expectations for Jack. Hence some anger. However, Joe Geist, who was next to him, smiled and said: "Jack, the assistant referee and the referee are completely different. It takes experience. He still needs to gain experience. ”
"Perhaps."
