I think ref's should try and use some common sense, that if it is obvious the that players from the side taking the throw in are trying to make themselves available for the ball then, no booking is necessary.
Last season we could have done with the new time wasting rules versus Boreham Wood and Bromley at home to name 2 and probably every team in the EFL could have named a number of games.
It’s good that the FA have taken action and refs seemed to implemented it to the letter with enthusiasm,last week I heard a player got booked for time wasting when they were 2.1 down.
So I think it’s better but hopefully they will use a little bit of common sense when they have got the message across(how were there 8 bookings yesterday &#128563
Regarding Nemane he had the problem of taking so long over throws last season but seemed to improve near the end of the season so hopefully he can quicken up again - I’m sure it will be addressed in team meetings and possibly on the training ground
