McGuinness fears ‘disaster’ from yellow card proposals

All-Ireland winning Donegal manager Jim McGuinness claims the GAA is going down a “dangerous” road with new yellow card proposals, describing it as a “disaster” waiting to happen.

Among the powerful Football Review Committee’s 18-strong list of proposals for change is a recommendation that players be substituted if booked.

McGuinness said his initial reaction is that if the rules — drawn up after people “all around the country sat down and fired in a piece of paper saying this is the way forward” — are implemented, then he will have to “coach to the changes”.
