World Cup 2006 News

Remember Mr. 3 yellow cards in one game? Yeah you do. Graham Poll was the one with this little mishap. It does sound funny but the football governing body considers to allow a player to get 3 yellow cards before being banned in future World Cups. So far two yellow cards and you´re banned from the next game you know the stuff.

In future perhaps there should be three yellow cards in a round before a suspension. It’s something we will take up,

Sepp Blatter is quoted over at the BBC. This World Cup has seen 27 red cards and 331 yellows so far which is pretty much in my eyes. So may be something has to happen but do you really think you stop people from playing unfair if you allow them to get even more cards? I don´t think so.
