The people in charge just love to spoil the game, which although it had its faults, was still as about as perfect as it could be.
The blue cards are fine if it's just for dissent, that's fairly black and white and we can get around that with good coaching/discipline. If they use it for anything else then it's just another tool to manage a result. For instance when VVD tries his usual leg breaker in the derby, he may get a blue card and everyone in the papers will bemoan the decision, when our player tries it he'll get a straight red. Let's wait until the referees have mastered two cards before introducing a third.
