Player get ten min off for promising attack prevention or dissent toward offish.
One fan on X said the didn't recognise the beautiful game anymore, while another said it would slow the game down even more.
A third added: 'Game is gone. If this comes in football is completely finished.'
It is understood The Football Association is considering introducing sin bin trials in the FA Cup and Women's FA Cup next season.
Blue cards have been used this season during a sin-bin trial in grassroots football in Wales, with the colour chosen to differentiate it clearly from a yellow or red card.
The introduction of new cards has already taken place on a smaller scale on the continent, with Portugal recently adopting a new measure to recognise good sportsmanship.
In October last year, a Portuguese fifth division player was believed to be the first recipient of a white card in the men's game after passing up an opportunity to score after an opposing defender gave the ball away on the edge of his own penalty box and immediately went down injured and in significant pain.
The attacker quickly realised the defender was badly hurt and turned away from goal before kicking the ball out for a throw-in so he could receive treatment.
The sporting gesture was applauded by the fans in attendance, and was swiftly recognised by the referee who walked over to the player and brandished the white card.
Should trials prove successful in curbing the instances of cynical fouls and dissent, the new card could added to the laws of the game.
One example of a good use of the sin bin was seen in then Euro 2020 final when Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini pulled the shirt of England's Bukayo Saka and only received a yellow card.
