Sevilla-Barca game suspended. Good or Bad?
410701
Depends on good or bad for who? Barcelona have more time to prepare for the game against Milan, and Sevilla have some rest before Schalke. So it is good for them, but bad for their opponents. \n\nIn the future however, there will be a fixture buildup, but there will be plenty of time to get that out of the way before the CL/UEFA Cup finals (if they progress).

This is a extract from a rugby league (yes and i know its not football) site\n\n1969 Warrington call a meeting to discuss the transmission of live games on the BBC a number of clubs including Wigan object to the idea, fearing gates will drop.January 5th First ever game to be played on a Sunday v Blackpool away,as it was not permitted to charge for entry on a Sunday clubs got round the restriction by selling team sheets which strangely enough were the same price as the entrance charge to the game,these were shown at the turnstile and you were admitted well sort of free?.

Yes, actually already there are  cards for refrees, i can send you two matches that the refree was given yellow card and also red card , the issue is that he was not meant to be given by any outsider since his the judge, but sometime if the refree is really concern about his deed ,he hand over the card to any of the players of his choice mostly the captain of one of the team that he likely offend, and he will be given a card , if his given a yellow the game can continue with him, but if his red card he need to just leave the game and one of the last man will continue as a refree, attached is the game like that or i Will send you the particular script of the games with the referee out, just send me your e-mail address,

I like the idea of a sinbin. Imagine some cheating player having to watch his team lose without him beacause he's been a cheaty naughty boy. the level of sportsmanship is generally deplorable, but there are exceptions, eg, gerrard.

90 minutes (plus extra time depends on how long the refree had to stop the game if players are injured etc.)

not sure even though i know most rules i believe suspensions stand for the same throughout the game which would mean your son would be unable to attend any of his teams games during his ban but it might be worth checking with your local F.A

If I were a Dutch medic, I'd be checking all the Dutch players for inner ear problems. They were just falling down for no apparent reason! But both sides were "at it". Everyone seems to be blaming the referee for the fiasco, but I would defy anyone to referee a match like that. I think one of the English commentators had the right of it when he opined that if the match went to extra time, there wouldn't be any players left by the end. The dirtiest, filthiest, most unsporting disgrace of a match ever played. Thoroughly entertaining! I want a rematch.

I'm going to assume Figo will be suspended. But a lot depends on Cristiano Ronaldo's health. If he can't play, they're screwed and w/o their best four midfielders. If he can't play, I see a standard 4-4-2 with Simao up front with Pauleta and their four reserve midfielders and the back four unchanged.

That ref in the Portugal/ Netherlands got an awful bad time of it I think and was blamed for letting the game 'out of his grip', but I looked at each decision he made and think he was justified in doing so!  I think the players were totally to blame, they went down too easily (especially the Dutch), which frustrated the Portugese, there was the incident with Figo  ( Red card offense in my opinion) which seeemed to ignite the sitaution.  The players were being stupid, the ref tried to get a grip on the game by booking severely , this back fired as the Dutch took full advantage of every over zealous Portugese tackle and the Portugese got frustrated and made some really stupid decisions.

YES...and let's not stop there...Figo should be suspended because a head butt is a red cardable offense (stupid ref just didn't see it so he couldn't justify it). Moreover, the Dutch should have been awarded a penalty shot in the game for the drop kick that their striker received in the box, but that was over-looked. All of you Portugal supporters should be thanking your lucky stars that Portugal is moving on with just two suspensions...oh and about Deco, FIFA told Portugal not to bother with the appeal because they won't do anything (probably because they are letting Figo get away with a dirty play) and somebody keep that cry-baby CRYNOLDO on the bench with his injury, the poor baby couldn't stop crying when he was taken out of the game...Hopefully England makes Portugal eat the ball Saturday to end the run of the luckiest team in the World Cup.

his policy is BS..i wouldn't watch my family get hurt and just stand there.  but on the other hand, if the rule wasn't so strict, players would just hop into the stands for the littlest thing...so i dono.  i think the policy is fine, but if my family was in trouble, i wouldn't care about being suspended or fined.

if the player accumulates 2 yellow cards, or gets a red card, then he has to sit out the next match\n\nso if i got a yellow card in one game, then another one in the next, i have not gotten a red card but i have accumulated 2 yellows so i have to sit out the 3rd match. or if i got a red card, i would have to sit out

Figo will be suspended for at least one game, probably more. If you remember 2 years ago in euro 2004 Italy's Totti was caught by the camera spitting on a danish opponent. No one saw this in regulation time as it was well behind the play, but fifa studied the tapes and discovered this incident. He was suspended for 3 games. Im thinking a head butt is worse than that.

NO - the postponed game later in the season is not taken up from the point of stoppage - the first game was a no game

The rule is that with a red card, you miss at LEAST the next match, although FIFA can suspend you for any number of games beyond that after reviewing the case. Usually though it's just the one.\n\nIf you get two yellow cards in the same game, you automatically get a red card.\n\nIf you get two yellow cards in two seperate games, you miss the very next game after the second yellow card.

i agree totaly,its called cheating and it should be a red card offence if caught.spain and italy seem to be the worst especialy spain.

Champions League is very important for Barca this season.  They already have injury problems (Oleguer, Messi).  They don't want to add more to it. Hopefully Larson will be available for Milan clash.  Barca plays away game and I think Rijkaard will rest key players (especially Ronaldihno) and allow Deco to orchestrate the game in Seville. After Seville Barca plays with Cadiz at home.  I think Rijkaard will try to kill La Liga here at this game at Nou Camp.
