Good question. There were refusals to introduce laws a few years ago, where the the FA stated it couldn't be done because the game should be the same at all levels....then this appears !

The trials became permanent. Sins bins are a success. They are a standard nationwide, except semi pro upwards. We now have a two tier game with differing laws.

The FA would have to ask IFAB to create a universal game here???
 
Because the LotG stipulate that temporary dismissals are only an option for youth, veterans, disability or grassroots football.

Therefore, the question is, why were they only made an option for youth, veterans, disability or grassroots football ? I agree with Pembroke. We now have a two tier system
 
Because if there were sin bins in professional football we’d move from almost never cautioning dissent to never cautioning dissent in those games?
They don't seem to care about cautions, though. They rack them up all the time. However, wouldn't going down to 10 players and potentially harming the teams chances of gained the 3 pts there and then, be a much better punishment ?
 
If I remember correctly the initial trial on select leagues was done, and at that time it was envisiged it would be a bottom up approach. But it appears to have stopped at the semi-pro level. It was started as dissent was the highest caution code and it was meant to reduce the costs to players and clubs - but now there is a cost to it as well.. We are lucky as it was suggested that all cautions would come with a "sin bin" e.g. yellow card and have 10mins off..

Some countries have used the "every caution is a Sin Bin".
Will be interesting to see if they change their approach after trialling it.

I was being a bit toungue in cheek, but talking about referee behavior, not player. If referees are reluctant to caution obvious dissent now at the professional level, when the card is often of little consequence, how much less likely do you think they will be to caution when they know the 0layer and the team will be outraged and it could affect the outcome do the game?
