@FOOTBALL fans Did you know???

 . The idea behind red card and yellow cards was to allow both players and fans to clearly understand when players had been dismissed or booked.
 ))The cards were first used in the 1970 World Cup finals in Mexico.
 )) The first player in the Football League to see red was David Wagstaff, playing for Blackburn Rovers at Orient on Saturday October 2nd 1976.
 ))Later that afternoon George Best, playing for Fulham at Southampton, was also red- carded. For a period between the 1980/81 and 1987/88 season the use of red and yellow cards was suspended in the Football League.
