Yes. TBH they really shouldn't need to be told but now there's no excuse. Now we just need to start yellow carding pulling and shoving at corners. Think of all the extra football we'll get.
Why not ? If a player is so out of order that he is off the pitch for 10 minutes or so , is that not better than him getting sent off & Possibly missing further games ? I don't know what they are planning , if anything , but sin bin before getting sent off sounds good to me .
So if the player calls the referee a **** he should be sin binned? No way. Players get away with too much as it is.
ACTUALLY , I HAVE RE READ WHAT I POSTED & YES YOU ARE CORRECT . I DO FEEL HOWEVER THERE IS A PLACE FOR A sin bin IN FOOTBALL , between a yellow & red ? Sorry about the capitals , not shouting
So after every decision that doesn't go a player's way and they " oh ****ing hell ref bla bla etc " they receive a card? Theres not going to be any players left on the pitch. Take Chelsea v spurs at the bridge , they would of had to sent pretty much everyone off that game under these new "rules". Na can't see it lasting to long.
Yes it will. Players will have to learn to keep their traps shut and not surround the referee. If they don't they'll keep getting cards.
It's the same with early fouls now, every game you see a challenge that is easily a yellow card if it happend in the 60th minute, but because it's the players first offence they get away with it, bollocks ! 6th mimute or 60th minute it's still a yellow card, winds me up. Can just see Ibra swearing at ref early this season and the ref bottling it " oh he called me a c*nt , but I can't book him yet it's only his first time and it might effect the game later on"
This rule would make perfect sense if we didn't all witness ref's making terrible calls every match that lead players to come over and debate with him. Now I'm not a fan of crowding, but when we see a player sent off because he's trying to tell the ref he's made a mistake, then confirmed by replay, we are all going to be pretty pissed. Shouldn't even bother me, as us Saints have a impeccable record with ref communication.
That's just one example Tom and on that I agree, but a sin bin I still a good idea for some things. I'd have it in for second "lesser" yellow cards.
Disagree. That would cause more arguments than there are at present. And what would you define as a "lesser yellow card"? Persistent fouling? Pulling someone back? One thing that should be introduced though is the ability to rescind wrongful second yellow cards. It's quite frankly stupid that those can't be rescinded.
LINCOLN RED IMPS - It is hardly a surprise to find out that Gibraltar’s Lincoln Red Imps club owe something to Lincoln City in its origins. The two not only share similar names (City’s nickname of course being the Red Imps) but also the Gibraltar club’s badge includes an imp similar in design to that used by City in the 1970s. http://www.soccer-history.co.uk/latest-news-events/121-who-are-lincoln-red-imps
Two yellow cards for fairly innocuous challenges could easily be made sin bin crimes. It is really easy to just catch a player without being dirty or malicious. What happens now is either a second yellow and a sending off, or the ref thinking "****, I've already booked him" and bottling it.
They'll soon learn, just as I as a "yoof" and my kids in turn learn that no swearing at all is allowed at home. Can they book players for constantly spitting as well so my sons don't copy that?
Maybe he'll go the Suarez excuse route and say "Us vikings often say Cnut when something goes wrong. It is like you English people say Oh my God..........Friends is American you say? Ahh....So the English are influenced very easily then"
