Morsy now on 12 bookings 18:08 - Feb 24 with 3125 views | heavyweight | There is no amnesty for 15 bookings , automatic 3 match ban. Too much to ask for that he can go the final 12 games and only pick up two more? | | | | |

Morsy now on 12 bookings on 18:22 - Feb 24 with 2927 views | J2BLUE | Hopefully he can avoid them. IF we do finish in the play offs and we know with a few games to go he could get a tactical 15th booking and be rested for the play offs. Let's hope that isn't a decision we have to make. | |

I had thought suspensions didn’t count for the play offs but could be wrong. | | | |

No they don't, I was just thinking it would allow us to rest him but we could do that anyway couldn't we so my post made zero sense... You're used to that though! | |

Morsy now on 12 bookings on 18:28 - Feb 24 with 2791 views | Aviator | Worth clarifying the position here re playoffs. I think the deadline is the end of the regular season but any suspension would include playoff games. So if Morsy picked up his 15th yellow in the last game of the season he would miss all three playoff games. Is that correct? | | | |

I just Googled and think that’s right, which is a bloody disaster for us potentially. | | | | Login to get fewer ads
Morsy now on 12 bookings on 18:31 - Feb 24 with 2749 views | woodbridge_blue | Isn't the next cut off at 37 games? As long as he is not on 15 yellows by the end of that game he's OK, or so I was led to understand? If that is the case, he can have two more yellows in the next three games and survive the rest of the season. Or maybe I'm wrong? | | | |

37 Games is the cut off for 10 bookings! | | | |

37 games is the 10 card cut off point , 15 cards counts until and on the last game of the regular season , and a ban would includes play off games ……..gulp . | | | |

Does the ban definitely include the playoff games? I am assuming it does but can't see anything written either way on it. | | | |

I don't know the answer but it makes perfect sense for suspensions to carry into the playoffs. Equally, makes perfect sense for yellow cards to reset at the beginning of them for all players not suspended. He'll do very well to avoid 15 given the rate at which he's currently accumulating (sadly!). | | | |
Morsy now on 12 bookings on 19:02 - Feb 24 with 2403 views | pointofblue | I suppose, other than picking up a maximum of two bookings between now and the end of May, the best bet is to get booked against Plymouth, Bristol City and Cardiff? Miss Wednesday, Blackburn and Southampton but return for Norwich and the remainder of a tough April. We didn't do too badly against Sunderland or at Leicester without him, to be fair. | |

No. He’d miss the two play-off games and the first game of next season | | | |

I assume he'd miss the play off final if we make it, instead of the first game of 24/25? | |

Morsy now on 12 bookings on 22:37 - Feb 24 with 1790 views | tractorshark | It's going to be a real tightrope avoiding 3 bookings in 12 games but not impossible. Unfortunately some of those bookings in the past have been avoidable (eg..kicking the ball away at Boro) and that's the frustration because now he's going to pay for it. We desperately need Morsy in the run-in if we're to maintain our automatic promotion push. But if we tail away come April, he'd be better off getting the ban and being available for the playoffs. | | | |

That’s correct. | | | |
Morsy now on 12 bookings on 10:48 - Feb 25 with 1093 views | Wallingford_Boy | The last few games of the normal season will be irrelevant anyway as we’d have secured play offs by then, so as long as he times it to miss those, it’s not a problem. | |
