Cannot see how within the laws of the game that is a caution ??

getting around the back pass laws maybe but in no way illegal - most ridiculous card ever?

And as you cannot appeal then i guess it will stay on his record, Dont suppose they want Mike Dean over there as well ??
Unless there's a law that says you can't do that
So should stepovers be banned?

Did the keeper actually pick it up? Hard to tell from the video. If he did, then it is the correct decision.

Heading the ball to the Keeper so he can handle it.

I thought there was a rule where you could be booked for "bringing the game into disrepute" by, for example, flicking the ball up and heading it back to the keeper, or setting up a teammate to head it back to the keeper and therefor evading the passback rule.
Would explain why no one does it. I did try a google but couldn't see it anywhere.

I'm amused by the idea of a booking for 'trickery' 
Is 'tomfoolery' a bookable offence too does anyone know?

Tricky question that.
Is it just trickery in disguise?, or is it just disguise masquerading as trickery and therefore allowed?
Do referees even do semantics?

I've tried googling it too, but also unsuccessfully. If anyone can provide a link to the rule, to settle this debate, that would be good.

Ridiculous booking. The player did absolutely nothing against the rules there.

An infraction would not occur if a team mate uses his head, chest, knee etc. (everything but foot) to make the pass (no matter where the point of impact with the ball is). It would, however, be an infraction if a player were to use a trick to pass the ball to the goalkeeper, such as kicking the ball up and then using their head. If a player uses such a trick, he must be issued a caution.[3]
uses a deliberate trick while the ball is in play to pass the ball to his own
goalkeeper with his head, chest, knee, etc. in order to circumvent the Law, irrespective of whether the goalkeeper touches the ball with his hands or not. The offence is committed by the player in attempting to circumvent both the letter and the spirit of Law 12 and play is restarted with an indirect free kick

It is against the rules of the game, although I did not know of the 'trickery' booking law.
You may not connive to pass the ball back where such a method is not already in place. Flicking it up on to either your head or a team mates head being an example. This was an illegal move, simple.
