cornishteddyboy Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 How about the current thinking? Get a yellow card, go in a sin bin. Silly or stupid? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38824937 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Two Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 A good idea that is unlikely to be implemented as rugby thought of it, and adopted it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Matthews Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 At least you get your punishment during the game you committed the offence. Might be an issue for a referee to keep an eye on the amount of time in the sin bin if there are more than one at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECPL Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 The problem is these days you only have to commit a foul to be cautioned. In any case how low will this go. I think it is an excellent idea but what if you have a situation when three or four players are cautioned at the same time. WHO IS GOING TO TIME KEEP. the sin bin.

The 4th official higher up, at our level I'm sure the manager and supporters would soon let the referee know when the time was up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Bartlam Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 You won't be able to keep track of the times for multiple sin-bins, unless you have a number of watches with different functions. The FA will try not to adopt it because it will be less money in their pockets - are they going to charge a £10 administration fee as punishment, when the player (and team) has already been punished by being removed from the field of play for a period of time? Better idea? Have a caution as a caution. If you commit an offence which is an easy caution, that remains the same as it is now. However, if the referee feels that an act by a player could warrant a caution but it would be harsh, or a player needs a chill-out period, pop out a blue card and get the player off for ten minutes with no action to follow (no caution administration charge).

Lynxman Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Interesting I agree time keeping may be a problem at lower levels but at least the yellow card will effect the team committing it in that match not at a later date. Hard enough for ref at present this makes it harder not practical to have 4 officials at matches and of course lower down you only have one. Will it lead to refs not giving yellows as it will be hard for them to manage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevieb Posted February 3, 2017 Report Share Posted February 3, 2017 Good idea works for Rugby , but then again football didn't take up moving a free kick ten yards for dissent , was tried out a few years back when I was still! Playing but only lasted one season , stopped the backchat to the ref and as every team always had a mouthy player the rest of the team would give them two barrells to stop the opposing side gaining an advantage .

bighairydave Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 2 hours ago, Keith B said: They should try that again stevie. Shutting them up whilst they back tracked towards their own goal should be quite effective. It didn't work well in non-rugby playing nations as they didnt understand it fully. This is why it was scrapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Matthews Posted February 4, 2017 Report Share Posted February 4, 2017 Also, when the free-kick is moved forwards, sometimes you get too near the goal to get it up and down over the wall, then the free-kick loses some of its advantage. What should have been considered is moving the wall back another 10 yards but allowing the free kick to be taken from where it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interested Party Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Maybe the sin bin could only be used for an offence where the referee has shown a yellow card for abuse towards the officials. This would curb disrespect towards the officials by players during the game or at half time. Just a thought ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
