TxRover Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Six yellows gets a one game suspension, but what counts as a yellow toward this total? The question is how do double yellow games and cards count? I know the second yellow is NOT totaled, but is the first? Example: Kyle has four yellow cards on the season. He gets a yellow in the first half and then a second yellow in the second half. Is his total now still four, or is it five? We know he serves an immediate ban for the two yellows... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Search kyle benedictus on soccerbase football stats 1st yellow card counts toward total 2nd yellow in same match is a red card Edited February 10, 2020 by SirJimmyofNic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 always thought that if it was a 2 yellows then neither would count with the 1 match immediate suspension for those considered enough punishment. if it was a yellow card followed by a straight red then the yellow counts towards the total and the immediate suspension being served for the red. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJimmyofNic Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Interestingly transfermarket has him only on 5 league yellows with the 2 against Falkirk = red and already served so looks like he's still got one more before suspension ???? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my question exactly.

Which messes up my current totals...oh well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the reset provision is a feature of English football, and is at 5 and 10 yellows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 The first one counts towards the tally but the second one doesn't. However, there is a cut-off point after a club has played half their league games (19 in the Prem, 18 in the rest of the SPFL) - after that you need 12 yellows to get a two-match ban. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, we agreed to that elsewhere but forgot to post it here. After 18 games, in League One, the cutoff resets to 12 for 2 off, correct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
