Blue cards

Post by Vespa »

I'm no football fan, I watch the international stuff but that's it.
What's the point of blue cards? Seems to make a simple game much more complex.

They need you on the FIFA panel Vespa, but if you showed common sense like this at the interview, they probably wouldn't give you the job.

You are spot on, they already have the yellow card to caution for dissent, why complicate matters. The only advantage, is that if a player has to sit it out for 10 minutes, then it affects the whole team, which will give managers an incentive to ensure that players stfu. :D

I heard two versions.
“Ordinary men hate solitude. But the Master makes use of it, embracing his aloneness, realizing he is one with the whole universe.” ~ Lao Tzu.

"The world needs bad men. We keep the other bad men from the door". ~ RC, True Detective.

Problem is, he don’t know ‘ball. So his forays into the subject are generally doomed before they begin.
