...is getting on my nerves. Could this work?

Give the ref another card (purple, perhaps) which dismisses a player - who in his opinion is being too
vocal - but allows the manager to replace him from the subs bench.

With 7 subs but only 3 allowed the ref could get rid of 4 gobby b*ggers and still keep the match 11-a-side
and the manager with 3 subs available.

In the local Sunday league now they've introduced a new rule where players get 10 minutes in a "sin bin" for such offences.

It is getting stupid they work on a ref to get a player sent off seen it here all the time. Managers and assistants are just as bad.

What happens when all subs are used and they're still gobbing off though?

The sin bin is far from perfect but it's the best potential solution so far, though I hate the fact that we even have to contemplate these changes .

Move play forwards 10 yards. They did try it but it was dropped, I don't remember why, but it seemed a good idea when it was introduced.

Not always beneficial though Rob. I'd rather have a free kick 10 yards outside the box than right on the edge of it. More chance of getting the ball up and over the wall.

It was dropped because in order to move play forwards the dissent had to warrant a booking. The Premiershite refs bottled it as per usual, because it would have lead to sendings off.
So they quietly kicked it out the back door and gave in to the Prima donnas yet again.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

We have the sin bin rule in our league and 5 games in I've yet to see it use so cannot comment if it is any good or not.

If the rule is to be brought back, couldn't you give them the option of moving it forward 10 yards? So where it may hinder a set-piece opportunity, the team with the ball could choose to keep it at where the offence took place.
