RichWednesday Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Time wasting being punished earlier on in games, good, sure this will be tested regularly again in home matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tylluan Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) "Officials have been instructed to adopt a higher threshold for penalising contact in challenges, taking into account how much contact there was, the consequences of it and what the attacking player’s motivation was. They will also be more vigilant of sustained holding at set-pieces." Massively open to interpretation and will change game by game and ref by ref. If this has been done to make players stay on their feet then it's bollocks. Players will still go down and the ref will still be left to make the decision.

mkowlthesexynewversion Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Watching players at corner kicks is as embarrassing to watch as the circus tricks in the lineout in rugby union or the scrum in rugby league. The one rule football needs is independent time keepers and more transparency on how added time is determined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes it comes with the caveat of properly defining how it works Though if the current alternative is getting home and er indoors is watching Shittly then a 8pm finish does have its benefits as that crap will be finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
