    Ever noticed that refs normally add 1-2 mins in the first half, but always a minimum of 4 in the second. It seems to have little bearing on what has actually happened during the game.

    A pet hate of mine is goalkeepers time-wasting throughout a game, but refs always waiting until right at the end to book them. Book them early and give them something to think about.

    Good examples, both correct and proving there is no accurate timekeeping or code to follow - just make it up as you go along

    I think the extra minutes second half are increased because they add 30 seconds for every substitution?
