Player Discipline, Bookings and Suspension

[Risso]

Season 24/25
So last season 23/24 hadn’t conceded a penalty in the Premier league
This season in one game we have already! Though it was debatable and soft


V West Ham
Yellow Cards - 2.
Bailey booked for a silly foul holding back a West Ham player when they were getting away from him.
Philogene for foul late on 90 + minutes

We conceded two penalties last season.

I wasn’t aware of this. Which games were they ?

[Exeter 77]

Bournemouth at home was one.

[OCD]

Brighton away.

[cdbearsfan]

We conceded loads of penalties at Lille. Shameful.

[Footy-Vill]

Bournemouth at home was one.

Brighton away.

Thank you for the update on those penalties. The two prem matches escaped me as for a long time there was no penalty conceded and indeed was the fact till April 21st!

Champions League Disciplinary and Card Watch

Yellow card Rules
Suspension for 3, 5 and 7 yellows in the League Phase
Yellow cards are reset after the quarter-finals.
A player receives a one-game suspension for accumulating three yellow cards, and another one-game suspension for each odd number of bookings after that.

[paul_e]

The booking for Emi was nonsense, you see players pick the ball up, run a few steps then throw it to the other team numerous times in almost every game and nothing is said. No way did this specific one get singled out for any reason other than the ref being a twat. What makes it worse os that they'd been wasting time since we scored right up to half time and he did nothing.

[Somniloquism]

I felt that, especially when one of ours (McGinn?) did something similar near the halfway line and wasn't booked.

[Footy-Vill]

The Bulgarian official makes average of 5 yellows a game so can expect a booking or two this evening.

It's interesting Keith Hackett says in England don't value yellow cards like do in European leagues as it's 3 not 5 for a ban

That's also the case in Champions League. It's not out of question of inital 8 matches that going to have someone picking up 3, 5 or 7  yellow cards resulting in suspension so lets hope for players discipline this evening.
But the officials play there part and set the tone.

1 yellow card v Young Boys
Duran a mindless yellow card.
Absolutely not good move on his celebrations and foolishly yellow carded.
2 more in the 7 games and he's suspended.
