Not gossip. It's on the agenda for the IFAB meeting in Newcastle, NI in March. Was proposed by the Northern Irish FA. It will get thrown out. Also proposed that the loop hole for Van Nistelroy's "offside" goal is ratified and that half time should be 20 mins to allow time to travel to and from changing rooms. This last one was thrown out 2 years ago when proposed by Germany to allow more time for tv advertising. This time it's for increased time for rest by players and officials. I guess it's all in the wording!
-original message- Subject: [LU] Sin binning? From: "Tim Leslie" <[email protected]> Date: 11/02/2009 12:13 OK, so it's just a bit of newspaper gossip at the moment, but what does everyone think about the concept? Sin bins for yellow card offences will be discussed this month by the International Football Association Board. (Daily Mail) Also, just to infuriate ... well just about anyone really! Take a look at what our next owner did with his previous club! Former Newcastle majority shareholders Freddy Shepherd, Sir John Hall and their families made almost £146m from their time at St James' Park, according to figures released by the club.
