With yellow cards being brandished for any innocuous contact has the time come to their value to be reduced proportionately? 3 yellows for a red would make it more difficult for referees/VAR etc. to ruin our enjoyment of the game. We don't watch a football match to see people giving their marching orders for being naughty, it is ruining the contest. A ref would still be able to give a straight red for a malicious contact etc.

No. not completly against introduction of a different coloured card or even sin bins though.

I think sin bins more for me with reds only for malicious/dangerous fouls or play. 10 minutes sin bin for first offence, 20 minutes for second. It would change the game in that players would be far more careful with challenges and could hopefully remove the cynical foul which is one of Man City’s and Liverpool’s biggest weapons when playing counter attacking teams.

A red should always be there for serious foul play. But a ten minute sin bin would be a good addition to refereeing choices , when dishing out yellow cards.

That’s a better way, particularly for technical things like time wasting or kicking the ball away. They could have a different card if it made them feel better.

Don’t disagree but won’t stop inconsistency, and certain bias towards some teams

If you feel that refs should ALL give the same decision for every foul etc, then they would become automatons & the game would become boring with no media/fans disscusions & rants. VAR & other tech stuff would take over, money & fans lost, the game would die a death. Just my opinion & take on things. Ooo & btw, HOL, wouldnt be needed or the fun of logging on after a game.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Good afternoon I agree with what you are saying but what I tried to convey was, the possibility of refs putting players of teams, playing against the “big”teams, in the sin bin to give them a numerical advantage during the game. Hope this makes sense!
