10 mins off the field for dissent.
I wish they would leave this alone. all you will get Is one team going into their shell for 10 minutes and lots of time wasting untill the 10 minutes is up. Fans want to see 11v11. Just hand out bans for decent and stuff like that. It will soon stop
Surely this is the idea of a trial, to see if it works.Quote:

A goalkeeper should not be filling the goal, he should feel like a 7 years old down pontcanna!Quote:

So true mate. All this talk about bringing in video refs and sin bins, is stupid. The best part about football is fans arguing over ref decisions. It would be suicidal to take that away. Look at rugby, and even with video refs it still takes them a good 5 minutes to decide on decisions, and when someone gets sin binned, the team who's a player down goes into Thier shell and looks to ride out the 10minutes. It would be ten times worse with football. Like you said, if it ain't broke then don't fix itQuote:

In fact it might make it worse. Players might think, " well if I try it on, I might get a free kick or penality, but if it don't work, I'll just get 10 minutes rest" if they wanna stop that sorta thing, then they need an indipendent panel that looks at incidents after the game. And dish out bans when appreciate. If a player is looking at a game or 2 ban, for throwing himself to the floor, or screening in the face of a ref, then mangers will start to act and tell thier players to cut it outQuote:
