I will get the video and put it up here but I just had to post about what I saw in the EPL highlights last night. In a game in England an assistant referee went down on the pitch with what appeared to be a lower back strain. He was in pain. The referee and the GKer nearest to him ran over to chek him out.

The GKer spoke with him and then bent over and picked up the AR’s flag off the ground. He turned to the bench are 60 yards away and waved the flag over his head and then he did a perfect signal for substitution with the flag.

It was so perfect. Imagine a player getting the mechanics right!. I was impressed.

Don’t know how serious the injury was to the AR but I hope it is not bad.

As for the goalie. Well he now has a new career after he wraps his playing career!

Here is the video!
