No red, not a yellow, but take a blue!
Discussion
Imagine the additional delays as VAR tries to determine if it’s a yellow, blue or red card… or not even a card!
If the players themselves weren’t such cheating, self-entitled t
ts then football would be a far better game.
Introducing rugby-style rules in a game with such an inherent lack of discipline and with a legacy of cheating to gain an advantage, it will never ever work.

Excellent!!! Right now yellow cards for tactical fouls and dissent aren't enough. Players take the piss as a yellow is nothing in terms of a penalty.
I'm surprised by another card. It would be simpler to add 10 mins for every yellow.
Football is hating all this but its been allowed to remain a game for cheating and whining for too long. Its like an ancient nationalised industry that's become privatised. The bad old ways must go.

Pointless. All that will happen is teams will lock down and time waste for 10 minutes.
They'll have a solution to that in a few years... A black and white stripey card for too much pissing about. Whole team gets it. If you get 3 in a game the referee and his assistants get extra biscuits and Liverpool are awarded a penalty the next time you play them.Frimley111R said:

I agree, football has far too much cheating and players mouthing off at the referee etc. I think this could be a good move. I'm surprised by another card. It would be simpler to add 10 mins for every yellow.

It will certainly be interesting.

It’s pointless. They should crack down on cheating and mouthing off but they should just use yellow cards with the refs actually having the balls to dish them out. I’d love it for a ref to get surrounded by players and everyone of them except the captain getting booked. It should happen under the rules now but refs for some reason don’t use the power. It will certainly be interesting.
Twice in a game and you’re off, no messing about with sin bins. You’ll have a lot of bans and perhaps even some games with 8 a side or something daft but it’ll eventually sink in.

So long as if a GK is blue carded an outfield player has to play there I’m for it purely on entertainment grounds 
In the early stages of sin bins coming into football, I sin binned a goalkeeper in the county church league for dissent by action (sarcastic clapping after I'd awarded a penalty against him).Cue pandemonium with players claiming you can't sin bin a goalkeeper, the team not having a decent reserve keeper and the stand in goalkeeper having to start off with the penalty kick.
I love sin bins, on Sunday morning I had 2 in the bin in the second half for the same team.
Had warned both managers before the game regarding the FA's stance this season on dissent/delaying the restart of play/technical area (and general participant behaviour).
Mentioned the first 2 points to the captains at coin toss as well.
First half, 2 quiet words to players for the away team and bringing the captain in a little before half time, all using the stepped approach.
69 mins, first bin for the team.
Captain slamming the ball down at my decision (something minor like a throw in or free kick in halfway), because it was public/obvious I had to take action.
He comes back on, 30 seconds later, second player from the team stands up and screams at me after not getting a foul (again, around halfway), couldn't ignore.
I really don't get what goes through the head of some teams/players.
So I'm all for sin bins.
Im on the fence a bit.For sure, the endless diving cheating and simulation needs to stop its absolutely fking shameful seeing fit grown men screaming like a baby and rolling around at the slightest of touches. I am not sure how this sorts that out though.
The other part dissent definitely needs sorting out, I see kids replicating the premier league players and mouthing off to authority on the pitch each week, they set a really bad example and no matter what they think kids do idolise and copy all their behaviours. I cant think of a single other sport where the officials have to put up with any dissent let alone the abuse that officials in football get.
Its worth noting that the games rules we have now are a million miles away from the rules of 100 years ago, the game as we see it now evolved hugely to what it is now, so change is a part of the sport.
