sibster Posted 13 June, 2022 Share Posted 13 June, 2022 The moment you get to out-MLG the man himself and remind him that it would be a change to the laws of association football rather than the rules....... 😁 As for the mooted law change itself I'm really not a fan if I'm honest; throw ins have worked just fine since the 1880s so why change it now?

I remember watching a game or two at Bognor in the 90s where they tried it for a season. Bloody pointless, slowed down the play and you could see the poor player's having a panic attack while struggling with the decision to 'kick or throw'.

nta786 Posted 13 June, 2022 Share Posted 13 June, 2022 Silly idea, personally think it would slow the game down more as players try to get into position akin to a corner. Also if I was a defender I’d actively try to give a corner away than for a “kick-in”. Having said that, I’m willing to bet this idea won’t come to fruition and will remain as that - just an idea.

niceandfriendly Posted 14 June, 2022 Share Posted 14 June, 2022 Think they're looking at it with a time restriction, for example a maximum of 5 seconds allowed to take the kick-in. The amount of time lost in the game to throw ins is a farce. Good that they're trying to fix that. Let's see if time restricted kick-ins do the trick. Time restricted throw ins could work also though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skintsaint Posted 14 June, 2022 Share Posted 14 June, 2022 If its about time lost, then just have a third party look after the clock and stop it when the ball is out of play etc. Will stop time wasting etc too. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cat Posted 14 June, 2022 Share Posted 14 June, 2022 Just enforce a time limit like they did with keepers holding the ball (is it still even a law as I haven't seen it enforced for ages?) and start carding people if they take the piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Give it to Ron Posted 14 June, 2022 Share Posted 14 June, 2022 (edited) How far does a defender have to retreat more ref’s magic spray? We do this in walking football and it’s 3 metres same I guess. Edited 14 June, 2022 by Give it to Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else remember the tweaking of the offside rule in the 1970’s ? I think it was in the Watneys Cup, or early Texaco Cup. The 18 yard line on the penalty area was extended the full width of the pitch and the player could only be offside on the goalside of this line. In other words couldn’t be offside for about two-thirds of the opposition half. No idea the impact, other than it was rapidly discontinued. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwsaint Posted 15 June, 2022 Share Posted 15 June, 2022 It's a stupid idea. Would have hoped that Arsene Wenger would have known better. When it was trialled it slowed the game down. Had to wait for players to get into the opposition box before lumping the ball forward. They are just flying a kite.

adrian lord Posted 15 June, 2022 Share Posted 15 June, 2022 (edited) Would change the game very significantly. Rather like Rugby League is in relation to Union regarding scrums.

Under the current system the tendency would be to get his head down and bomb up the wing or look to play it forward quickly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan The Flames Posted 16 June, 2022 Share Posted 16 June, 2022 The rule change I would like to see is the ball has to be dead still before a free kick can be taken. It's annoying when the ball is hardly moving and the kick is taken quickly, and the ref stops the game, pulls the play back for the geezer to play the same ball again. Pointless.
