Yellow cards in Football?

[MrsT]

Is there any good reason why football should not adopt the Rugby system of 10mins in the bin for a yellow card?
I realise this is the news section but the something bad seems to have happened to the sports section.

Well Mr Ben perhaps my name may give you a clue what sport I play, i think I can say that Rugby is competative! So what you are sayng effectively is that lack of self control is a requirement for footballers so they would never be able to cope with such a rule change. I get it now! what a sport!

[MrsT]

ok I'm going to follow your suggestion MrBen over to the football section it goes....

No skills or finesse in rugby, they can't even play for ninety minutes.
Any fool can run about a park carrying a ball, its like playing chase.
Leave football to professionals like us MrsT, otherwise you will be made to look foolish.
The last time I picked up a rugby ball, I was told to put it down at once and go and wash my hands.
