I’m Irish and I watch a lot of Gaelic football and the black card is the exact equivalent of this. They use it really well I believe, where cynical fouls as in stopping attacks and hard tackles that aren’t necessarily reds.
The difference is in Gaelic football it is 15 v 15 and with 4 extra players on the field teams won’t hide back and defend as much as they likely would here.
I would say it deserves a trial, as in next season’s Carabao Cup where the stakes are lower we could see how it plays out.
I actually don’t mind this idea.
