This week has seen the announcement from the International Football Association Board (IFAB) that blue cards will be introduced and are going to be trialled for acts of dissent and cynical fouls. The showing of the blue card will also mean that the player receiving it will spend 10 minutes in a sin bin.' Speaking purely as a football fan and not a journalist, I'm not a big fan of this development and I can't see the sense of changing the current rules in terms of cards. It looks already good enough to me, so I'm not pro-blue cards, at all. I do think the game needs different changes, just not this one.
There would appear to be multiple stories in the media which suggest that Tim Steidten is going to walk away from West Ham if David Moyes stays. To be completely honest guys, I don't have anything confirmed on this at this stage. For sure, losing Tim Steidten would be a huge loss for West Ham in any case, as he did an excellent job in the summer. There were important signings made and a new, fresh vision for the club in terms of the project, other signings and more. He's done great work at both Leverkusen and West Ham recently.
