FA cracking down on ill discipline!

Discussion in 'The Premier League' started by Hoddle is a god, Jul 20, 2016.

  1. New rules to stop "intolerable behaviour" by players and managers have been introduced in English football.
    In a statement, the Premier League, English Football League and Football Association said poor conduct has reached "unacceptable levels".

    Starting this season, red cards will be issued to players who confront match officials and use offensive language.

    Behaviour within the technical areas will also be more rigorously enforced.

    Chelsea could well end up with only their goalie on the field, at this rate.

    Won't come to that. Once they are below 8 players, they forfeit the game. Good news for Courtois.

    After our game at the bridge, I think we'll need to watch ourselves <yikes>

    I will be surprised if the new guidelines are applied equally to all clubs

    It actually means the opposite of that <laugh>

    Everyone knows that Spurs are the easiest kids to wind up.
    That includes kids in day to day life.

    I hate to do this to you mate, but using Chelsea as an example of ill discipline, when Spurs would have forfeited the game (according to these rules you are citing) in that game where you bottled it against Chelsea and threw your toys out of the pram, is a **** up of monumental proportions.

    It rightly deserves its place in your opus of **** ups :)

  20. Hm. I rather suspect that the spectacular lack of participation from any of the lads will inform you otherwise, mate.
