Dr. Hook Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Finally remembered to ask this on the forum, as I've never in the decade I've been at FM quote understood this statement in match commentary. What is it referring to, exactly? Is the player's foul harsh, or is the referee's decision to call a foul what is being called harsh? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quaazi Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Yeah, it means that it wasn't really a foul, but the ref called it anyway. Your Mileage May Vary, of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CityAndColour Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 It means you can bash the ref in the post match press conference without fear of punishment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
