Crucially, yellow card bans - unlike reds - no longer carry over into either of the domestic competitions or indeed Europe.
The 19-game mark offers players a slight reprieve, but suspensions then become more severe if 10 yellow cards are racked up.

Premier League rule changes
Automatic yellow card for whenever more than one player approaches the referee
Automatic yellow card whenever a player runs from a distance to speak to officials
Automatic yellow card whenever there is more than one coach in the technical areas
Harsher penalties for managers who leave their technical area and/or show aggressive behaviour towards officials
Bosses who receive a red card will NOT be able to watch the rest of the match from the stands
Referees are now obliged to time game stoppages for goals, celebrations, substitutions and injuries
Yellow cards for time-wasting from the clear and obvious (kicking the ball away), to the more subtle (delaying goal-kicks)
Higher threshold applied to contact between players
