I'm with you on this one Noah - the rule is that a player can stay off the pitch to avoid being involved in the active play at that time.

Remember Kevin Moran being the first player to be sent off, ( or has the saying back in the day - trumped ! ) in the FACup final, and the shock of it, and even Jack Taylor giving the Germans a penalty in the early mins in the World Cup final, both correct by the law but shock because of the occasion.
