Yellow cards should be void in terms of having any impact on the Final. A straight Red in the Semi & fair enough, but Roy Keane was the finest central midfield player of his generation & he never played in a European Cup Final because of 2 yellow cards amassed over a 4 match period or whatever it was. Ridiculous rule. Should have been scrapped years & years ago. |

If they did change it, I wouldn't be devastated or anything. Be funny if they did change it and a there were players in the Finalwho had 6 bookings in the knockout stages. Bet it'd happen too. |

Gotta love debating a rule without actually knowing the rule.
ps - for the record, I don't like the rule. The point of a yellow card is to warn a player that IN THAT GAME he has committed an offense that will get him sent off should he repeat it, or do anything else of comparable severity. If he doesn't, and gets through the rest of the game, the booking has been nothing more than a symbolic warning. UEFA have taken it upon themselves to decide that the accumulation of warnings against suspension should actually constitute a suspension. |

I find the arguments grimmers and s/side/ers' put forward quite persuasive. although, it is standard across all competitions that a certain amount of yellow cards equals a suspension and punishing persistent dirty @#%&!s is quite attractive as an idea. a point I'd like to make is that there are just far too many yellow cards given out these days. perhaps it wouldn't be so much of a problem if they were reserved for the offences that truly deserve them. |
