Orange card

Re: Orange card

The thing with red cards are is depending when you do them depends how harsh the punishment is, when really that's a bit unfair.

If you get sent off for punching someone in the 1st it's a much bigger negative than doing it in the 90th.

Im not sure what the answer is,

penalty goals could work but would only probably happen a couple of times a season as unless it's handball on the line or keeper taking someone out there's no guarantee.

Id quite like to see free kicks inside the box for non obvious goal scoring fouls.

Hard to score inside box as couldn’t hit over a wall so end up hammering them through crowds of players

Players with good disciplinary records should be presented with an Amazon gift voucher at the end of the season.

Re: Orange card

There needs to be a card between yellow and red in which the offending player is sent off but can be replaced.

Why ? Whats the point. The rules need to be simplified not made even more complicated.

Re: Orange card

What part of the pitch?

Using the same definition there is now for issuing a straight red for stopping a goal-scoring opportunity.

Brilliant idea. £10 of credit for every foul they didn't commit during the season?

What about discouraging diving? I think instead of booking players for diving, they are given a t-shirt with "cheat" written on it (or a picture of a John Terry or whatever) and they have to wear that over their shirt. The opposition is allowed one free foul tackle on that player i.e. they can kick him/her up in the air with no consequence. Once that's happened to the referee's satisfaction the t-shirt is removed and the game then continues as normal.

If you take a knee, do you get accused of playing the Race Card??

Makes sense

Re: Orange card

hard disagree.

however there should be reward cards for if you do something really good

Good idea.

I think that there should be different colour cards they can collect from the referee for the different skills, assists and goals.

They should then be allowed to trade cards so see who can get the 'full set'.

Agreed

Re: Orange card

I've always said that a team should have one less penalty if they have a red card. If a team has had a player sent off then they have 10 penalties. You could take it further and say 2 yellows = 1 less penalty.
