Player Suspensions

Cautionable offences

The Scottish FA’s Disciplinary department records cautionable offences reported by referees and confirms to players, via their clubs, the cautionable offences recorded against them and the total number of cautionable offences recorded against them to date.

Sending-off offences

In addition, the Disciplinary department records sending-off offences reported by referees and confirms to players, via their clubs, the sending off offences recorded against them and that they are subject to an automatic suspension under section 4 or 5 of the Disciplinary Procedures. For the avoidance of doubt, an automatic suspension applies immediately and is not dependent on confirmation by the Scottish FA.

Lists of suspensions

As an additional guide, the Disciplinary department produces a weekly List of Suspensions for Men’s Football and a weekly List of Suspensions for Women’s Football. A Cup Cautions List is also produced on a weekly basis for information.

These lists can be found under this section and any queries should be directed to the Disciplinary department on disciplinary@scottishfa.co.uk.
