Blue cards to be introduced for football sin-bins (telegraph.co.uk)

 

No it's not part of the Everton protests!

 

Blue cards/sin bins are to be introduced. 

[Supremolad]

Get it in the bin.

[Bjornebye]

Oh fuck off.

An announcement is expected on Friday to announce the introduction of a blue card in football as part of a sin bin trial.

According to a report from the Telegraph today, the International Football Association Board (Ifab) have signed off on the use of a new card for the first time since yellow and red cards were brought in back in 1970.

 

A blue card will see a player leave the pitch for ten minutes before getting the chance to return to the game, and it will be reserved for certain offences.

The report states that blue cards will only be used for dissent or cynical fouls that stop a promising attack, but without necessarily being that dangerous.

 

A combination of two blue cards, or a blue and a yellow card in one game, could then lead to a red card later, just as two yellows already lead to a red under current rules.

 

 

[Fowlers God]

Cant wait for us to have 10 players against City s for the last 10 mins because Tierny thinks we are playing too well. 

 

FUCK OFF

 

and FUCK OFF AGAIN. 

[TheBitch]

Sounds open to abuse. 
 

Fantastic stuff. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Sounds shit and something else to push me further away from the game. There's only one reason I'd use a sin bin for and that's head injuries. Real or fake your sin binned so it better be real.

[Jairzinho]

I imagine this will be implemented fantastically and further add to the pure joy that is modern football.

[an tha]

Another shite idea that will be made even shitter by the clueless clowns responsible for implementing it and carrying it out.

 

Going to be fucking awful as the inconsistency of how they issue them will be fucking painful.

[Section_31]

Footy is finished isn't it? 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Sort out the issues that already exist in the game before introducing new things that will likely create further issues that need to be sorted. 
 

Knobheads. 

[Redder Lurtz]

Pathetic.

[Tj hooker]

As soon as I saw this I just thought its another level of Corruption to screw us over with .

I concur.

 

IFAB are fucking gobshites.

[3 Stacks]

It's a good idea that the idiots running football will likely manage to ruin.

[gkmacca]

A typically clear announcement. Yellow and red cards as usual, but one or maybe two blue ones for 'certain offences'. What, pray, are those 'certain offences'? Fouls, perchance? Anything else already covered by yellow and red cards? Or completely new offences, such as 'looking at the ref in a strange way' or 'making a heart shape with your hands after scoring a goal'? 

 

Yellow cards were mainly introduced to cover all of those crafty fouls players were getting away with that didn't quite warrant a red. Fine. But a yellow is all you need. Now they'll spend so much time pondering what colour to use the game will probably last another ten minutes.

 

Yet another example of minds that cannot think in even the most vaguely logical fashion.

[Lee909]

Just gives the refs more ways to fuck teams over. It'll lead to more cynical fouls and teams going for out 10 men behind the ball after stopping attacks for 10 mins. 

 

 

It bollocks

Yep.

'It's footy Jim,but not as we know it!'

[John102]

Imagine getting paid 200k a week and someone told you that you only had to do 80 mins of work, if you called Anthony Taylor a window licking jamook.

[Tenfolder]

Ah good, what is definitely needed is another card/set of sub rules so we can give the refs who already cant apply the rules at all/equally even more to consider when making decisions, definitely wont equate to even more time wasted in matches and refs making even more game changing mistakes.

[Elite]

Wouldn't be a bad idea if the officials weren't all fucking useless and inconsistent.

[YorkshireRed]

Even if the officiating of the game was at the very highest level, and the supporting technology was flawless, this would still be a shit and unnecessary idea.

 

As it is, it’s just another nail in the coffin of that thing we used to call football. 

[col06]

Really open to abuse and its not really needed is it why can't they leave things alone

[manwiththestick]

A massive Webb of confusion and inconsistent decision making incoming.

[Anubis]

Pretty much everyone saying how much better the games without VAR were. So naturally the authorities go the other way.
