In the lancashire womens league the standard ban for a red card was 35 days, no matter what the offence. Extra time can be added on dependant on the severity of the matter. One of the girls that played for stanely the year before last got a 42 day ban for getting 2 yellows in a game one for a late challenge and the other for advising a fellow player not to give the ref there name when he wanted to book them. She had 7 days extra added on for it being referee directed dissent, even thought at no point was there any foul langauge or abuse!!! Funny things suspensions at lower league level!!
I was also previously in a team where one of the players was given a 67 day ban for foul and abusive language which supposedly included racially aggrevated words directed towards a match official (I was stood close to the girl at the time and I heard nothing racist but that was the charge!). She contested this but as she had no sound recording of the incident, the fa dismissed her protest at the ban and she was forced to sit out the final 2 and a half months of the season. I'm not quite sure where she was supposed to put an on record dictaphone about her person whilst playing football, any ideas?!!! Ridiculous!!
