KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Ever present vs. yellow card

I know Pepe is on a very long ever present run in the PL (close to 150 games I think), but I was wondering, since he is on 4 yellow cards, would picking up a fifth card on Sunday ban him from the final game of the season?

Would be a pity to break such a long run, but at what expense?

Yeah i think it would. I hope it doesn't because I would want him to carry over any bans for the start of the season. We want our full first 11 ready for the first game next season. Plus it would be a good game at villa to give Gulasci some first team time

Beat Spurs and garauntee fith then maybe give our number 2 a game but I cant see the point to be honset, There's no room for sentiment.

I think they recently changed this to 10 yellows = 2 game bans but I could be wrong because I remember gerrard picking up 5 yellows but he still played.

Defo no room for sentiment, and if Reina doesn't get booked and isn't banned for the final game then he must play. But if he does pick up a yellow against Spurs then i hope he misses the final game of this season and not the first game of next season

I was told that if you get 5 yellow cards in the beginning half of the season you miss the next game but in the second half of the season if you get 3yellow cards u miss the nxt game

You are right Snakeye, it is 10 yellows gets you a 2 match ban, the 5 yellow card rule has been scraped.

10 yellows is a ban plus from the end of march start of april its an amnesty so its doesnt matter no more until next season .

excellent, Pepe will carry on his run of games and making records
