I mentioned similar in an early thread about feigning injury. If it's a head injury then 5 minutes off the pitch will give the medical team time to complete the concussion protocols while the game can carry's on. They're going to need more space for the 'medical assessment' time out players to sit..perhaps they could line 'em up on stretchers along the touchline..bit like in the NHS hospital corridors...? |

Countdown clocks around the ground. I mentioned this on another thread. Allow a certain time for each type of dead ball situation and set it off at the appropriate time

Don't stop play for injuries. Do it Rugby style and play around the player and physio.
It would soon get them up if they were feigning.
Another one someone mentioned which I like is a 5 minute assessment of a player is injured.
There are so many ways in which something could be enforced. Those at the top just don't have the bollocks to do it.
Carvajal the other night for example, Hrealish never even touched him, and he lay on the floor for 2 minutes holding his face. 5 minutes off the field for that and it would soon stop.

I think the answer is fairly simple. 60 minute games with the clock stopped whenever the ball is not in play. Everyone plays the same amount of time. Time wasting becomes a waste of time. No guessing about the whims of the referees. You’ve just described the NFL Clock keeps going in NFL a lot of the time! |

I’ve said this before, but I hate the way pundits legitimise the cheating. “He’s been clever there”, “he’s waited for the contact and gone down”, “he’s got every right to go down there when he’s felt a touch”, “game management”, “taken one for the team”, “slowing down the play”, blah blah blah. Then as a result, you see little kids doing it. If it was called out, if refs got the cards out, they could soon put a stop to it. They’ve got VAR ruining the game with t-shirt lines and yet someone blatantly cheating is ok.

Imagine if the game stopped the clock with every stoppage some games would be over 2/3 hours 🤣

60 minute games, stop the clock when ball out of play. You have 5 seconds to take a throw-in or it goes to the other team. That’ll probably stop the time wasting.

So if a home player puts the ball out of play, the home fans hold onto it for more than 5 seconds, then the away team don't get the throw in, it reverts to the home team that put it out of play. Seems fair to me! |

Seems fair to me! You’ll soon find out after about three throwins that each player takes them very quickly and you get very few turnovers. |

Any rule change regarding throw ins can only help us seeing as we must be the worst team taking throw ins & have been for years.

I certainly don’t want some yank style clock stopping. A game goes on for 90 mins. The amount the ball is in play changes every week.
Two things that affect it are refs who are whistle happy and players cheating, rolling around and time wasting.
All part of the game. Better standard of refs would probably improve the in time play. But in general I oppose most suggestions

Allow a certain time for each type of dead ball situation and set it off at the appropriate time And then when someone is off getting treatment (using someone else's timed "assessment" suggestion) for an "injury", the last ten seconds of "assessment" has the Bu Du, Du Du, Der Der Der Der, followed by a klaxon. |

What about handicapping the cheats, like they do in horse racing..by adding lead weights in ever increasing amounts strapped round their chests...they'll soon be wilting when carrying an extra 3 stone weight... radical ? yes...Fun ? yes....

I wonder how many fouls per game there are nowadays, compared with the 70’s & 80’s?
The amount of niggly and cynical fouls seems to be off the scale and disrupts the spectacle.
If the Refs were to give the obviously cynical ones a yellow card, we might end up watching 64 minutes in play. Doesn’t sound a lot, but 10 mins would suggest there’s a good chance you’d see a couple more opportunities on goal.

It's even worse if you're watching a live game on Sky as they've now decided that any 'exciting event' needs to be given the full 5 different camera angles replay treatment...gone are the days when the 'live action' was sacrocant. By the time they've done the 5 replays, then a close up of the players, a fan and the manager and returned to 'live action', that dead ball, or kick off, or free kick .....whatever.. has been taken, the ball is at the other end of the pitch and we've no idea what happened in between apart from you can hear the ooohs and ahhhs from the crowd.Sky have had a few near misses too when another 'exciting incident' occurs while they're still showing replays from the last one. I find it totally f***ing annoying tbh.
So that 54 minutes you can shave another 10 minutes off if watching on Sky...and see basically half a game...

Bloody hell. Nicholls would look like the Michelin Man. Yeah, but the space they'd take up would fill the goal. And much of the penalty area if we're honest. |

A system like this, but say you have the first 10 seconds after getting a throw in to take it, and then afterwards every additional second goes onto the added time clock. Can give say 20 seconds for a goal kick or 30 seconds for a free kick. |
