That suggestion is actually neither inept nor crass. Get onto it.
Indeed. There is so much gamesmanship in football that ruins games, my pet hate is the bizarre application of the obstruction rule

Players "showing passion" by getting needless red cards. Watching the Merseyside derby and Funes Mori has just been sent off for stamping on Divock Origi's ankle for no reason at all, in the middle of the pitch. Walks off gesturing to the badge and gets applauded by the Everton fans. Why? The berk's just cost you any chance of a come back for no good reason. It's not showing passion, it's being a daft prick.

I think it's because the fans would rather interpret such offences as "I REALLY want to win this game, therefore I will get easily frustrated if things aren't going our way" rather than what is the truth in 99% of cases, I.e. "lots of people are getting angry and my brain has stopped working"
...NT to get sent off at home to Oxford next season?

Simon Hughes summed this up very well in the Independent: 'With Everton two down at the break, a vicious stamp by Ramiro Funes Mori on Divock Origi was punished by a straight red card. The lack of fight in Everton before was as obvious as his recklessness. From 50 yards away in his technical area Jürgen Klopp spotted it and television replays revealed the German grimacing at the point of impact, which led the striker to being carried off on a stretcher. Klopp described Origi’s fate as a “big shadow” on an otherwise excellent performance.
Mori, meanwhile, exited the pitch to the sound of Evertonian applause after he reacted to the punishment by beating the badge on his chest repeatedly, a sign he considered his action as a sort of warped honour. Seemingly, it slipped his mind that he will now miss the most important game of Everton’s season.'

I bet he also has to be held back by his team mates from punching opposition players and shouts 'come on then' at other supporters whilst standing behind a police cordon. Posturing of the highest order!

For all of Lee Power's flaws, I don't think you'd ever see a hashtag on the front of our shirts under his tenure.
