Long overdue, but will be interesting to see how it's implemented:

There is no reason why Football should not be the same as Rugby where only the captain is allowed to speak to the referee and if you protest to a decision it is an automatic yellow card, that would stop it immediately if they actually went through with it. It should also be an automatic Yellow card for gesturing to the ref to give a card to a player and for any sort of play acting.

This will go the same way as many directives, it will be implemented vigorously on the smaller clubs for a while, and then a high profile player (probably from Man Utd) will get sent off & after that it will go back to normal.


It's the same as shirt pulling at corners, they should give a penalty every time. We hear cries of that will lead to 10 penalties a game. So what, at some point the players will learn that and stop doing it.

I would love to see players respecting referees more and I think this is a good idea but its going to be very tough to implement.

Will be fascinating to see though.

It will be imposed in the lower leagues for a bit and quietly forgotten.

With our history with referees and the FA what odds that the first player affected is one of ours?
