Charan Singh received his second yellow card of the evening for this and was thus sent-off. Brown was only given a yellow card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It prompted a wave of complaints to The Football Association (FA). It&#8217;s now told officials that what happened to Charan could be a red-card offence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new guidance says referees should send off any player who deliberately and inappropriately touches a religious head covering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Charan said the change is &#8220;needed&#8221; after his experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere were two incidents during this game where my Patka (religious head covering) was pulled at,\u201d he said via the Sikh PA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe referee was informed after both incidents yet remained despondent, even after informing him that it is a religious symbol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA Real Bedford player has hit me in the face and pulled at my Patka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI have been playing football for over 20 years, been in numerous tackles, headed the ball on multiple occasions and my Patka has not once come loose as I tie it securely. That shows the amount of force that would\u2019ve been needed to remove it from my head, which is why I am sure it was pulled at intentionally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pioneering Jurnail Singh, who was the first Sikh referee in English football, helped to shine a light on this issue and bring it to the FA&#8217;s attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mr Singh, from Wolverhampton, says he &#8220;wanted to raise awareness around the significance of the patka, hijab, and any other articles of faith worn by any player or referee.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;If we don&#8217;t act upon these kind of incidents, it could put off the next generation of children from getting involved in sport&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The FA says it&#8217;s written to all match officials across the English game to outline the new guidance, which aims to &#8220;stamp out discrimination&#8221; in the sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The guidance confirms that touching religious head coverings without an individual&#8217;s permission is an offensive act, given it is an article of faith,&#8221; it said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Therefore, if an incident of this nature occurs during a match and is seen by the match officials, it is to be considered a red card offence.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Sikh footballer who was sent off for confronting an opponent who tugged on his head covering has welcomed new guidance for referees.
