FA changes yellow card rules for 2018/19 season
According to the Football Association, things are changing

I think on Saturday after the 3rd goal went in on 78 minutes, they should have brought Agyei on for Mackie, but instead they waited until the 88th minute. Give him some game time!
Thanks for that - no clearer on the date/number of games issue though. You'd think this would be easy info to find - it could impact on a lot of clubs and players!FA changes yellow card rules for 2018/19 season

Mackie was also struggling with his back. He was grimacing every time he ran!!Yes I thought the same.
It seems a bit mean to be critical of the manager when he got so much right on Saturday, however Mackie was running on fumes for the last 10 mins he was on the pitch, he needed to come off.
We really do appear to be keeping Agyei wrapped up in cotton wool, perhaps on medical advice?

Ive a feeling he will come good ... needs a run in the matchday squad first though, hes rarely made the bench of late ... If Taylor hadnt been ill last sat, Agyei would probably have missed out a place on the bench then tooMust admit that Agyei looked the part, fast ,good size, challenged well in the air , if he comes good I think an absolute beast at our level

Nowt wrong with that for me. We're quite fortunate in that we have both A) Two senior strikers doing well, so we don't NEED a third option at present, and B) Plenty of goals coming from midfield, so the onus isn't purely on those two strikers to bag the goals. If introducing him slowly is what's required, go for it I say, as we don't actually need him at this point. Hopefully will be a superb option off the bench in the run in in a few months time.Yes I thought the same.

Yes, thanks both - found it. A bit obscure that you have to click on the 'One Caution Away' tab to see that though (EFL, you need a web designer!).
Probably slightly academic - Mackie WILL argue himself into the book in the next six games and both Brannagan and Gorrin WILL mistime a tackle (which is all it seems to take nowadays!). Taylor might manage six without a yellow.
hes one of our few fit players left! he must play in both matchesNeeds to feature against Hayes, and certainly start at Crawley.
