Maybe the ruling has been put in place in case someone starts spinning it above their head like you see on most European games, and it strikes someone causing a facial injury? Just a thought.
I live in Barnsley where shirts,trousers and proper footwear is optional, even in January.
So I'm used to seeing fat old men with their tits out,it's not a good look,I'm with the steward on this one.
I nearly took my shirt off at the match when i won the 50/50, then i remembered i was sat at a table with our lass..............£905, very nice thanks to the Pole Vaulter from Kimmy....cheers......UTM
If you take your shirt off and get sunburned on their property maybe you could sue? That might be why.
I thought it was an automatic booking for taking your shirt off.
I blame the ref fir not taking immediate action and nipping it in the bud early doors 😆
