Re: Blue Cards
One thing it deffo has done has cut down gobbing off to refs... which is a good thing. Also any of our players getting sin binned for gobbing off get a club fine... win win for the club.

We have had it in Vets football last couple of seasons... seems to work OK... and saves me a load of paperwork.

Re: Blue Cards
Seems a nonsense and anything that lets knuckleheaded refs fix games is unwelcome
Sin bin should only be for games that dont have the equivalent of yellow and red cards so a player cant otherwise be removed

Lee Trundle 11:32 Fri Feb 9
Re: Blue Cards
Yeah, I wonder how that is going to work?

If the GK gets sin binned, does the team have to then make a substitution to bring on their sub goalie, and then make another substitution when the sin bin is over to bring on an outfield player for one of their 2 goalies on the pitch?

Re: Blue Cards

Looking forward to the first GK getting one for anything, most likely time-wasting.

Re: Blue Cards
I'd be amazed if sin bins ever come into English football.

Re: Blue Cards
The Premier League has already ruled out being part of the initial roll-out of any trial, while football's world governing body Fifa said "reports of the so-called 'blue card' at elite levels of football are incorrect and premature".

Something else the officials and VAR will get wrong! Will officials bottle out of giving full red cards now!

Re: Blue Cards
If it's an alternative to soft red cards, it could be a good thing. I would also use it as a punishment for time wasting.

Re: Blue Cards
It would be to the player's advantage to get a blue card as he'll be able to park his Lamborghini on double yellows

Re: Blue Cards
Players like Robbie Savage and the like will receive pink cards and they will be required to mince off the field of play.

Nagel 8:56 Thu Feb 8
Re: Blue Cards
Bound to cause problems and confusion. If you want to introduce a sin bin then just give that punishment to those who get 2 yellows instead of sending them off. Refs might give out yellows more consistently that way, rather than based on whether they've already been booked.

From what I've read testing won't begin until next year and won't be used at the top level for a good while yet.

Will blue cards be subject to var checks?

"A blue card won't suddenly make up for poor officiating"

Exactly.

If the refs were doing their jobs correctly, then this isn't needed at all.

El Scorchio 8:38 Thu Feb 8
Re: Blue Cards
So what's it supposed to be? Halfway between yellow and red? Or it replaces yellow?

All that's going to happen is certain teams will get blue cards for nailed on red card offences and yellows for blues (I think we know which teams I'm talking about) while it's the opposite for everyone else. It'll just be another way of helping the 'right' teams win games.

What the fuck is the definition of a blue card offence compared to a yellow or red one anyway?

I don;t really see what needs fixing with the current system. There's nothing wrong with it if administered evenly and fairly. A blue card won't suddenly make up for poor officiating. It'll just exacerbate it.

Re: Blue Cards
Disgusting misogyny choosing BLUE.

Can’t we have BLACK or RAINBOW cards?

Something else for the Ref's to worry about.

What possibility could go wrong.?

Re: Blue Cards
You have been issued with a BLUE card as it has been deemed that your general behaviour or recent posts have fallen outside the guidelines of the WHO FAQ. Who is provided for the enjoyment of all, not as a playground for the few and we hope you will bear this in mind in future.



I don't actually have a massive issue with this, like I do with VAR. At least this can be implemented across all forms of the game, from the Premier League to your U10's leagues.
