Will the new 'respect' rule be included in 09?

[Suge]

Players seem to leg it towards the assistant referee when a penalty/offside/red card goes against their team in 08. For those that read the news, the FA has been trying to stop players doing this by implementing a new respect rule which allows only the captain to 'discuss' a decision with the referee. Will this be included in 09?

I mean, it's tricky to implement because I think it's only England that currently has this although it would be interesting to see this work in some form. Maybe we could see players still attempt to confront the ref and the captain, depending on his influence rating, take charge and send them away? I don't know what anyone else thinks but I'd like to see it.

I certainly hope it is and with the new 3D mode you will be able to see it happening more clearly than if it were in 2D.

I think maybe SI should wait to see how it pans out in real life before putting it in the game.

[wardog]

im sure its in play in scotland as well

I think that players disrespecting officials should play a bigger part in the game ie FM - not real life!

It should be done so that if they are swearing directly at the ref/linesmen face they should be yellow carded. Like Distin was in the Charity Shield against Man Ure.

Making generalisations based on where someone comes from is nearly as bad as what he said. Safety wink or no safety wink, makes no difference imo

[Mike7077]

If it is, I'll be implementing it in my squad! Assuming I manage in England, that is..
