[Albion] Are Knockeart and Dunk suspended for New Year's Day?

[Jeep]

Just when I thought I was clear that they were booked after the cutoff and could play. Boom! The BBC website preview says they're both suspended.
What does the great mind of NSC understand to be the truth?

 

[timbha]

I thought the cut off had passed before yesterday

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

PL rules clearly state the yellow card amnesty is after game 19 ( Watford ).

 

[Petee]

NO!

 

[portslade seagull]

They are not suspended, carries over to 10 now when it will be 2 matches out

Are we sure? The BBC are normally correct on these things?

I used to think that.

According to the FA website we have no current or pending suspensions. http://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/discipline/suspensions

Although I must admit their explanations are contradictory giving both 19 games and 31 December as the cut-off for 5 bookings. We played our 20th game before today - so would be caught by one interpretation, but not by the other. However, their detailed explanation clearly says bookings in 20th game do not result in a ban.

BBC get quite a few things wrong !

 

[beorhthelm]

seems to be some confusion whether the cut off is game 19 or Dec 31.

You have to say, given you don’t need to do much these days to get booked, 5 bookings in 19 games seems a low number to warrant bans? It’s about time they increased the limit.

Cheers chaps, good to know

Rubbish, play by the rules of the game and you don't get booked - simples!

No there isn’t. 31st if Decembee for leagues below the Pl. 19 games for PL.

The 31sr only comes up in at PL level if you haven’t played 19 games by then.

We kicked this one about a bit in the first few posts of this thread: https://nortr3nixy.nimpr.uk/showthread.php?358483-Albion-2017-18-discipline-watch

This isn't very clear and probably the cause of the confusion:

[Questions]

Cut off games are after 19 for 5 cautions and then again at 32 games which is a 2 match ban if 10 bookings have accrued.

 

[The Large One]

For example, a Premier League player earning their fifth caution of the season on or after the 20th League Match would not earn any ban. However, if they received ten cautions by the 32nd League Match, a ban would apply.

You mean refs are always 100% correct and that a player would never mistime a tackle etc
