Exactly. To me that seems pretty flawless. See, that didn't take long to figure out a logical suggestion and we're not the head of UEFA. Now the one question from me is would you could a tackle which's sole intention is to stop a breakaway/counter attack as a technical offence rather than a...

Now a sin bin JUST for backchat may be one I would get my head around. That would not ruin the game in terms of constantly losing players, should stamp out the mouthyness.

And again, like Rugby, is a much more physical game in which fouls are far more irregular than in football. All the examples were sin bins work are sports which are ROUGH and thus yellows for slightly mistimed tackles are nowhere near as likely as football. I understand the principle and in...

They are a deterrent. Players on yellows will often watch their step and hold back on tackles. Opposition wingers will target a yellow carded full back in the knowledge he will not commit fully for fear of being sent off. Its not broken. Have no idea why Platini (who disagrees with goal...

No. You're missing the point. In football every attempted tackle could result in a yellow if done incorrectly. It really doesn't take MUCH to get a yellow as it is a sport with a lower level I contact. As rugby is a (brilliant) but much rougher sport, the yellows are done for, as you say...

Down the pub. Jim "**** off Graeme. That was CLEARLY a blue card offence" Mike: "Shut it Jim. That's just a yellow. The game's gone if that's a blue" Paul: "Thing is guys, He's already had his 1 yellow so the ref doesn't want to give him a blue otherwise it'll be a red" Jim "Exactly, I'd have...

It wouldn't take long for clubs to insert sneaky little "bonuses" to a wingers contract for the amount of times he gets a player sin binned. If I was a manager I would think of my Ashley young as a KAMIKAZE pilot. Send him out there to get the oppositions defender sin binned. Sure I may lose...

It would actually be a nightmare, wouldn't it? You'd have peole like Ashley young diving EVEN MORE and not only in the area now. They would do anything to get the opposition a yellow. People will be faking injury 10 times over to get the opponent a yellow and therefore remove them from the...

"I would make it like rugby, punishing the offender with 10 or 15 minutes out of the game," He lets himself down straight away. In Rugby you have to do something pretty wrong to get a yellow. It's a suitable punishment Football is not rugby.
