It's a start though. And imo is the biggest one. They have already started with throwing where several balls are located around the pitch.Originally posted by RU66 View PostIf I've read it right says if a keeper breaks the new rules a corner is given to the opposition. Taking it too far. There's other areas of a game were there's time wasting.
A common one starting to come into the game is. a goalkeeper takes a goal kick then sits down. Players then make the ref aware who stops play.
Keeper gets treatment for about 1 minute, usually on his wrist/shoulder before play continues.
Keeper is always fine.
Teams know the game won't restart without a keeper

It needs addressing though. I've often glanced at the time when we're chasing a game and seen 40-50 seconds idle by as the keeper messes about with a slow goal kick or 30 seconds to stroll around holding the ball before playing out. It's not the only issue but it's a repeat problem and can slow a decent game right down for fans.Originally posted by RU66 View PostIf I've read it right says if a keeper breaks the new rules a corner is given to the opposition.

Not sure if goal kicks and offside/free kicks are part of this rule.Originally posted by UlleyMiller View PostIt needs addressing though.

Anyone notice Dawson nearly got caught out with this new law first half?
Ref clearly held his hand up show 5 down to 1 with his hand and got to two before Dawson hastily launched it. He then had the nerve to shout towards the bench waving his arms about like no one had reminded him from the bench what the Ref was doing and why?
Doh!
