Footballers could be shown blue cards and sent to a sin-bin for dissent and cynical fouls under plans to be unveiled by the body that decides the laws of the game.

The recommendations are set to be made by the International Football Association Board (Ifab) on Friday ahead of trials across competitions. The Football Association was reported to be exploring the ­possibility of using the FA Cup as part of the trials process, though Fifa, the global governing body, have since said it would be ­“premature” to involve elite ­competitions in the trials. The trials have not been authorised for top-level competitions, ­however, meaning there will be no sin-bins in the Premier League, and the ­proposals have not met with support from Uefa who have no plans to roll out sin-bins to either this summer’s men’s European Championship or the Champions League [The Guardian].
