Oh what about foul throws?

Dont they exist anymore?

Divers/injury feigners to be shot.

'Shepherding the ball out' = obstruction.

Referees have to explain their decisions post match.

Playing for chelsea negates any protection you may have under either F.A. rules or the Geneva Convention.

Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
Always makes me laugh when a player gets a slight shove and goes over with a gentle bump, then has to have treatment and grimaces like he's had a leg amputated with a rusty vegetable peeler.

Same player goes for the ball in the penalty area and tangles with a defender, going over with a clump BUT scores, then he's off like a fucking greyhound to celebrate.

As for rule changes, any celebration that includes pointing to a made up deity in the sky, or a dead relative. Ban them till they come out publicly and say they accept they've been a twat.

Get 10 yards from free kicks in 5 seconds or move the bloody ball up 15 yards (at attacking side's discretion), penalty if it reaches the box.

heh heh, nice

I completely agree with your view on free kicks around the box and allowing the defending team as long as they like to set up a wall.

This doesn't happen anywhere else on the pitch, so why does the team that's been fouled end up being disadvantaged. Why the hell shouldn't they be able to take the free kick as soon as they're ready, and if one of the opposition hasn't retreated 10 yards in a timely manner then take the kick 10 yards closer to goal (if the attacking team choose to).
What's doubly frustrating is that on the very rare occasions a team tries to take it quickly the ref blows up and makes them play it again, but not until the defending side have finished lining up the wall etc.

the stretcher bearers should all be girls from For Your Eyes Only wearing all the gear and doing lines off each others arses ;-)

I don't think it needs new rules, just the ones that exist to be more consistently applied.

Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
Stop all this shovey bollox at set plays - drives me wild.

All in wrestling then once the ball is in play fart and the player goes down as if shot with a blunderbus

Offside is offside, none of this not interfering bollocks.

Get 10 yards from free kicks in 5 seconds or move the bloody ball up 15 yards (at attacking side's discretion), penalty if it reaches the box.

Video review to hammer divers and other underhand behaviour.

Keepers to release ball in the stated 6 seconds, some of them think it's a minute and 6 seconds.

Socks over knees - yellow card

Zero points for a 0-0



Extra point for every 10 goals scored

Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
bugger.....retrospective review of all diving. Yellows at least, and if it's Suarez, Young, Long, Ahgbonlahor, Janusaz, or anyone foreign then red and 6 month ban. Cunty behaviour by the likes of Costa = requirement to eat Meat Phaal.

Chico Flores has work permit removed.

Separate time keeper in charge of the clock.

None of this "let the last play of the game finish it's course" bullshit.

Goals scored outside the 18 yard box is an automatic win.

VirginiaHam 7:51 Thu Feb 4
Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
Shirt removal should be allowed when scoring a goal. Why on earth not?

Arms around waist at corners should be penalty and at least yellow. Why not? Power to refer for video adjudication....or get the wanker refs that stand on the line and do nothing to take control.

Jethro Q Walrustitty 7:42 Thu Feb 4
Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
Diving- straight red
Wearing gloves- red
Not putting the ball in the fecking quadrant at corners- red
Defenders should be arrested for molestation at set pieces
Managers having a go at the 4th official every time they don't like a decision- it's not his fault!- straight to the stands
allowed 2 more subs if the game goes to extra time
Players should be sent off for being one-footed.
100 grand a week plus and can't play a simple through ball with the other foot
Replays instead of penalty shoot-outs
Players with stupid haircuts- straight red ( card, not the hair)

Full Claret Jacket 7:41 Thu Feb 4
Re: If you could enforce one new rule to professional football...
Any grabbing of the shirt or hugging of the player to purposely block or impede him is a penalty and straight red card.
It's something that annoys me immensely and is getting worse. I cannot understand why refs continue to ignore it.
This would sort out the good defenders who position themselves well and anticipate from the shit ones who get away with it every week by not even looking at the ball and obstructing attacking players at set plays.
