00:00 Something we're asking all managers today, it's been a big topic, is Sin Bins for descent and tactical fouls.
00:07 A yellow card potentially in 10 minutes in the Sin Bin.
00:10 It's working in some lower levels of football and it's working in other sports right at the very top.
00:15 Just want to get your view on it.
00:16 Yeah, bin it mate. Just bin the whole idea. Just forget about it.
00:21 I don't understand why, and again I think I've already said where I stand on this kind of stuff,
00:28 but I don't know why they keep interjecting themselves into the game.
00:31 There's not that much wrong with the game.
00:34 But again, I guess once they throw an idea like that out, it usually means they've already tested the waters
00:43 and it'll probably be inevitable at one stage. I don't think there's a need for it.
00:46 I think you're seeing a lot more descent in the game these days because you've got more people to descent to.
00:54 In the past it was just the referee and now you've got to descent to the fourth official, you can descent to the VAR,
00:59 you can descent to the head of the referees. It used to be simpler.
01:04 The authority was with the referee and he could handle it himself.
01:08 But as I said, I just don't think we need to mess with the game too much, but it is what it is.
