5 yellow cards

[Treeton Blade]

Saturday is the cut off date for 5 yellows bringing a one game ban.

We have 2 players on 4 yellows, Enda Stevens & John Lundstram.

After this date, the ban will be 2 games for 10 yellows, to run until game 39.

Interesting. That could be a factor in our selection this week.

I'd prefer Lundstram over Carruthers this weekend but with this info I'd at least entertain the idea of benching him if it means less chance of us being light in midfield for the next game.

Stevens stays for me though. Lafferty can do a job if we're in need but Stevens has shown that he's much more capable.

I Leon not on four. I had it in my mind that it was Clarke and Stevens.I'm probably wrong...

 

[Tom Bott]

Leon Clarke.

Are they a list of the only clubs he hasn't played for?

Sounds right, I had Clarke on 4 too, but Tuesdays programme has him on 3, unless I`ve not looked reyt

So you'd bench Lundstram because you're concerned about him not playing the next game? So, whatever happens, he misses a game? Why not play him and if he gets booked he misses a game, if he doesn't get booked, he doesn't miss a game?

If he gets booked he misses a game and it means we have less back up options at CM during that game. He'd also have another yellow to take with him throughout the season which increases his risk of missing another 2 on top of that in the second half of the season. At a stage where we are missing one of our 2 first choice midfielders I'd say that doing what we can to not lose another option in games is a pretty significant thing to take on board.

I also said I'd entertain the idea. I didn't actually say I'd do it.

No point getting a yellow for a shirt pull better off breaking someone's leg you get away scot free and shelve the player for the rest of the season easy peasy.

I'd save that retaliation for the return game vs Burton. I never seriously condone injuring a player, but I would shed no tears if someone snaps that dirty bastard Sordell clean in two.

I just checked FA website, lists Clarke, Stevens and Lundstram all on 4.
