Do me a favo(u)r

Hi,

I am just wondering about the meaning of "Do me a favour" in "I thought the sending off was a joke. Nolberto Solano sent off for violent conduct? Do me a favour." I know that you use it often in asking but here I think it's got different meaning.

Thanks in advance.

It seems to be short for: "do me a favour – don't treat me like an idiot".

Or near offer.
