The Football Association has no plans to change its stance over yellow card appeals after Harry Redknapp dubbed the system "crazy", BBC Sport understands.
Spurs boss Redknapp is unhappy Fifa rules do not allow him to appeal the second yellow card that led to Wilson Palacios' recent sending-off.
Redknapp was furious with the second booking for a foul on David Dunn in last weekend's defeat at Blackburn.
But the FA supports Fifa rules that do not allow reviews of yellow cards.
Authorities are worried if such a system was introduced it could cause bureaucratic chaos.
"It's a flawed system that you cannot appeal against a yellow card and get it rescinded if it was blatantly wrong," said Redknapp.
"It's crazy really, they surely could look at that and say it was a wrong decision. He hasn't made contact with the player so it shouldn't count."
Palacios was booked twice against Blackburn on 4 April in the space of a few minutes leading to his dismissal in the 80th minute.
The decision opened the door for Blackburn to score two late goals through Benni McCarthy and Andre Ooijer, to overturn Robbie Keane's first-half penalty.
Palacios will be now be suspended for Spurs' clash against West Ham at White Hart Lane, a vital game in their quest to qualify for the Europa League next season.
