    New rules

    https://tinyurl.com/3nstvsmp

    I thought they'd already decided to clamp down on players going to ground for nothing.

    Every team is guilty of it but I remember Chelsea and Liverpool being particularly bad. If they do as promised, it'll improve games.

    Wonder which teams the added time rule will benefit the most...

    And as for that ridiculous 'one coach at a time in the technical area' bollocks??? The fuck is all that about?? Of course, Sky have chosen to illustrate it with clips of Eddie and Jason...

    Thoughts?

    These new rules are mostly awful.

    Why is more than one coach in the technical area a problem? The problem is coaches showing aggression towards the officials, not sure why coaches in a technical area is going to solve that. It's just penalising coaches for no reason.I'd get rid of the technical area altogether. It's a joke. Why on earth can Howe and Tindall not discuss the match whilst stood together in the technical area?? I hope they change this, I bet Howe is fuming!

    Dissent towards refs is a problem yes, but show show zero tolerance for it. No need for this more than one player approaching the ref business.

    Leniency towards physical challenges? Yeah not vague and subjective at all.

    And why the hell do fans want to be watching games with crazy amounts of stoppage time! It's the wrong solution to a real problem.Just stop the clock like they do in other sports. Players will still waste time under the nerw proposals, but will stop doing it if the clock stops as it's obvious there is no advantage to be gained.

    We need as much objectivity in the rules as possible.

    That coaches in the technical area one has really wound me up. Treating the coaches like kids. Who the **** comes up with this crap? It will disproportionately effect us when the real problem is ****s like Klopp throwing a tantrum.

    We need less rules in football, not more.
