I don't mind having two yellow cards result in removal from the game. It is like picking up your sixth foul in basketball. I think you need to have some sort of limit on the number of yellows you can receive in game so you don't have people committing foul after foul. I just don't like the carryover rule for yellows or reds with the one exception I mentioned.
Oh I agree. Guess I wasn't that clear in what I was saying.
The red and yellow system is fine. It's the suspensions for following games that I think are unwarranted, especially as referees are giving yellow cards for innocuous fouls.
Imagine how ridiculous the NBA would be if six fouls in TWO games resulted in a suspension!
