The FA has produced a handbook covering the Disciplinary Procedures for teams
dealt with by County Associations under Match Based and Time Based Discipline
Regulations.
From the start of the 2011/2012 season all open aged football will receive
Match Based suspensions, i.e. Saturday, Sunday, Midweek & Veterans. All
discipline in Youth & Small Sided football will remain time based.
In 2009/2010 season five leagues outside of the National League System operated
under the Match Based Disciplinary procedures as a pilot, they were Kershaw,
West Riding Amateur, Suburban, Bedfordshire & District Sunday and
Herefordshire Saturday Leagues.
Last season The FA included the Cambridge & District Sunday League and the
St. Neots Sunday League who, along with the above Leagues piloted the system.
The FA Council agreed that all open aged football from the start of 2011/2012
would operate under Match Based Discipline regulations which will improve the
consistency of sanctions across the Country and ensure suspensions that are
imposed on Players are fair and in proportion to the offence they have been
charged with.

In simple terms players sent off on a Saturday will miss ‘x’ number of games. Those games will only apply to the players Saturday League team, his Sunday league team will be unaffected. From page 31 onwards it all gets complicated as Youth and Small Sided Football have a different set of rules.
