Sin-bins: FA announces 32 leagues to begin pilot scheme in 2017-18

The "temporary dismissals" will apply to selected divisions in England's 'step seven' - six tiers below the National League - and leagues below.

Players will now spend 10 minutes out of the game if they are shown a yellow card for dissent.

Men's, women's, adult, youth, Saturday and Sunday leagues have all been picked for the pilot scheme.

The FA said 130 leagues registered interest in the trial and a mixture of leagues across the country were chosen.

Clubs are normally charged a £10 fine for each yellow card but the FA will not be charging this administration fee for those that participate."

At the rate referees in the top divisions dish out yellow cards it would be 6-a-side football on a full size pitch. Stupid idea unless someone is going to ensure yellows are reclassified for more serious offences

My Sunday league aren't doing it which is a bit of shame. That amount of dissent at all levels is ridiculous and should stop. Hopefully this will go some way to doing that.

They are doing rolling subs though which I totally disagree with. Utter nonsense.
