What the bloody hell?

They're determined to finally kill off the sport.

Card proof that c*nt

Nailed on an Everton player get's the first blue card though

[Fromola]

Why don't they just leave the game alone? With the exception of scrapping VAR as that should never have came in. No doubt we'll get a ton of 'blue cards' and nobody else will for the same offences. Or the odd time they do, the ref will then let them waste time for 10 minutes.

The last thing that came in that was beneficial was the backpass rule.

🤪

What a load of old bullshit.

[red1977]

Sin bins with these refs? What could go wrong?.

[HeartAndSoul]

All these manc based referee will be licking their lips when they referee us

[rossipersempre]

Should be orange cards surely.

[smicer07]

Silly.

[Lone Star Red]

I got a blue card and sent to the sin bin for kicking the ball away to stop a quickly taken free kick, just last week for my indoor 5 a side team.

Rodri’s in trouble if this goes through!

[meady1981]

That’ll clear things up

[Crosby Nick]

So instead of fans moaning when a player got a red instead of a yellow or vice versa, we can now moan at an extra layer of complexity when one of ours is sin binned and one of theirs only gets a yellow.everybody wins.

[Kashinoda]

Just found out that the four FAs from the United Kingdom hold 50% of the voting power in IFAB, assumed it was more international.

Why are we determined to make Football so fucking complicated.

[DelTrotter]

Great news, the current rules are handled so well by the current refs and var's what could go wrong?

(It's also a completely horrendous idea even forgetting the state of officiating)

[Hij]

They already basically have this for dissent in the non leagues. Don't think it should count for dissent but I remember John Terry actually rugby tackling a player on a counter.

There obviously at times isn't punishment enough for cynical challenges when a team hasn't had a yellow card so far, sits on a 1 nil lead, usually in a cup match and can just take it in turns to take a player down to stop an attack. I know we all love it when it's one of ours, likes of Mascherano or Fabinho but I don't think it's inherently football, the same way we got rid of the back pass rule. If a team has caught you on the counter then I think generally speaking it's fair that if you take them out on purpose without getting anywhere near the ball, a simple yellow card and a chance to reset isn't punishment enough. But I guess there would be greater backlash making these red cards.

Exactly. We'll definitely be made an example of. As long as refs aren't mic'ed up, I can see refs basically making shit up to put ours in the sideline.

[slaphead]

Finally some common sense. All the mess and balls up being made are clearly down to not having it in the game where 2 blues make a red and 1 blue and 1 yellow makes a red.
It's not all bad, at least the refs will get an extra pocked sewn into their shirts

[disgraced cake]

Good to see a new card brought in to appeal to the Evertonian market.

Seriously though, stop killing the sport lads.

[Hestoic]

Jurgen's off, City are still unpunished, and now they want to bring in more bs to control the game to whatever bias they have.

Any real reason to watch football in this country any more?

[RedDeadRejection]

Makes it even easier to walk away after Klopp.

[red1977]

So instead of fans moaning when a player got a red instead of a yellow or vice versa, we can now moan at an extra layer of complexity when one of ours is sin binned and one of theirs only gets a yellow.everybody wins.

Exactly. Refs struggle very badly to keep decisions consistent. An extra layer isn't going to help.

Now we will see your centre half off for 10 minutes for dissent and the game you was winning one nil is 2-1 by the time he comes back on. 20 minutes later dissent is ignored, it will be a cluster fuck because they wont be consistent with it. It makes the game more about the officials than it already is and they are currently fucking it up badly.

[zamagiure]

This could be the final straw for me.

[slaphead]

It will give Sky Sports more to talk about. More controversy. More Social media hits. More air time filled, More flash points. More bantz. More money.  That's what it all comes down to in the end. Football fans aren't a thought anymore. For everyone that turns it off you'll have loads more turning it on, unfortunately

Any real reason to watch top flight football in this country any more?

No. Non-league though. Tenner in, drink in the stands, doesn't consume your entire week and isn't shoved down your throat by the media.

Also, just another market for the bookies to rinse.

It's a new policy, so obviously before it gets ignored, the first recipient will be one of our players.

[Sheer Magnetism]

The backlash against this will make the reaction to VAR look tame.

[Red-Soldier]

I agree with this.  Support your local community too.

[rob1966]

Done properly, this could work - so you know its going to be a fucking shitshow

[Andy82lfc]

Rodri will be in trouble? Is that a piss take?

The refs don’t Do a thing about him now, they let them and others surround them and only dish out when they feel like it.

They can’t handle how it is at the moment it’s just going to be even more of the same. Absolute shitshow.

And the main reason being to take out dissent and players kicking off. So in other words make the players like fucking robots with no emotion. How is Nunez supposed to stay in the pitch when he’s fouled by Gabriel and he reacts like any fucking human being? He would have been binned for ten minutes would he?

All that because they think it will trickle down to fans and kids. Honestly the game will be played with helmets and zero contact allowed in 50 years at best.

[A-Bomb]

Just leave the game alone fuck sake. The Neanderthals that currently ref the game can’t do their current job well, let alone have to cope with dealing yet more decision making.

Keep your oiky mits to yourself and focus on the bigger issues at play such as Man Shitty, corruption in UEFA and FIFA.

[Terry de Niro]

No wonder Jurgen is done with all this shite.

[5-times-Phill]

If it was introduced for tackles, the old ‘more than a yellow but not a red’, I wouldn’t mind it I don’t think.
But tactical fouls are legitimately part of the game and I really don’t want to see refs given more more to crack down on dissent. Nunez got booked at the weekend for throwing his arms up after not getting a clear foul. Is that dissent enough for a blue card, would be ridiculous. Nobody wants to see games ruined cos someone told a ref to fuck off in the heat of the moment.
Not to mention how inconsistently the existing cards are currently used when it comes to dissent.

Having said all that FIFA have tweeted that’s whilst it has been discussed, it’s not imminent. Which is good.

[I've been a good boy]

No point watching football anymore, it's bad for mental health. Refs are already protected better than the US President, always found it farcical that anyone speaking out against them is fined like it's some fucking cardinal sin.

[Musketeer Gripweed]

I genuinely thought this was an April Fool earlier when I read it. I checked the date as soon as I saw it.

Only then, I remembered it was minus 2 and dark outside.

Load of pish. Will never happen.

[JRed]

Oh yes, great idea. Let’s give the knobhead refs even more ways of influencing the game. Liverpool chasing a goal? Put Nunez or Salah in the bin for 10 minutes. Liverpool hanging on for an important win? Put Alisson in the bin for taking too long on a goal kick.
We all know the refs will use it as a tool to further influence the outcomes they want.

[duvva 💅]

Who actually comes up with this shit.

They can’t have anything whatsoever to do with football.

Can’t have ever watched it. Fuckin clueless

[Andy @ Allerton!]

Another stupid idea by a gang of absolute wankers.
