Players who wave imaginary cards at referees can now expect to be booked themselves.
European football's governing body Uefa, has issued new directives to officials and says they should come in with immediate effect.
UEFA also want referees to punish players who crowd around officials and show dissent through gestures or by running at the those in charge of the game.
A statement read: "UEFA is determined to stop dissent and the harassment of referees and wishes to make players and team officials aware that referees in all UEFA competitions will punish such on-field confrontations appropriately.
"These additional instructions for referees should be applied immediately, starting with Saturday's Euro 2008 qualifiers."

A good idea, as some of the teams / players need sorting out ;)

If they bring that rule into the UK League Matches, then Man U will not be playing many more
