'It's a red card to the blue card' - Infantino
'It's a red card to the blue card' - Infantino
Gianni Infantino says Fifa is "completely opposed" to blue cards as football's rule-makers look set to ditch plans.
FIFA is set to block the introduction of blue cards and 'sin bins'.
"We will not introduce temporary concussion subs because, we care about the health of the players and concussion is an important topic for us," he said.
"We have invested a lot of money, £1.5m, in research. We have an expertise in this area now.
I’m sorry, but £1.5 million does not sound like a lot of money for FIFA, especially not for serious medical research.
I think he meant to say:
We have an expert in this area now.
It's just the one expert. But he's damn good. He's been banging his head all day.
£1.5 million does not sound like a lot of money
That's what... Three doctors?
I'd expect that once you count salary, benefits, and other costs like equipment and travel, that £1.5 isn't going to pay for more than three specialists.
Today I feel like an expert
That's too bad. I really liked the idea of sin bins.
