    Laws of the game changing again

    Leagues free to decide whether to use new handball rule when season resumes

    http://bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52208435

    Not sure we’ll ever like certain rules no matter what they do

    I think it’s a good move. It needed to be more defined and from the elbow to the wrist is more acceptable. After all, it is defined as ‘hand’ ball.

    I missed game out of title.

    I know that Brin but when are the rules in live games that simple? We will still be moaning

    IF and it's a big IF this season ever re-starts then rules from Match 1 should remain in force

    Whenever NEXT season starts THEN new rule to be implemented not halfway through the season (IMO)

    So the elbow is the new shoulder?

    Been saying it for ages. It's why I've only been to 5 games in 20 years

    Fully agree but ............

    results have been decided this season on the existing rules so they should stay in place until next season (whenever that is)

    Totally agree, they shouldn't change them half way through the season. How many teams have lost games this season because it caught a 'shoulder' before a goal was ruled out? Let it run it's course, if at all this season.

    Agree, why they would want to do this is just silly.
    We can hope the clubs don’t agree and just carry on but I doubt that will happen
