    Two Burnley Players Walking The Yellow Card Tightrope, Before Yellow Card Rule Change

    Two Burnley players Josh Brownhill & Taylor Harwood-Bellis, both on 4 yellows, so walking the
    tightrope against the Millers on Wednesday night, before the yellow card rule change.
    If either or both get a yellow against the Millers, they will be suspended for the weekend
    game against Sheffield United, so we could do the Blades a favour by helping them get booked.

    After the midweek games the yellow card rule changes -
    Players who collect 10 yellows before the 37th league game, will serve a 2 match ban, while
    those who pick up 15 yellows before the final day, will be hit with a 3 game ban.

    Their manager has probably already decided to rest them on Wednesday for the 'easy game' in order to save them for Saturday.

    CAM, I was thinking the same. Such is their strength in depth they can afford to leave them out. Have to be honest, I feel a walloping coming soon and it's not us giving it out.

    Both players in the starting line up, so Burnley manager Kompany risking a yellow for both players, which
    would mean a ban. Kompany turning out his best team to face the Millers.

    Brownhill gets his 5th yellow card, misses Sheffield United game.
