Rules they should bring back (8 Viewers)

[Calista]

Despite some people thinking it’s a new rule, I think the “whole of the ball must be over the whole of the line” has always applied. We can (usually) just measure it better now.

In researching this, I came across some gems from the early days of the game in the 19th Century. “If the ball crossed the sideline, the player that first got the ball was rewarded the throw-in”. It would be brilliant to reintroduce that, can you imagine the fights

Old fashioned off side

Penalties needing more than “contact”

 

[Greggs]

3 subs

 

[Calista]

Not sure Nick would like this one - "Kicks must be aimed only at the ball"

 

[eastwoodsdustman]

Gets rid of timewasting, all for it.

A goalkeeper can handle the ball anywhere on the pitch. That way Blackburn will stop complaining about Wilson.

5 subs and bigger benches is one of the few things I actually like recently. Gives players more opportunities.

Yeah and I’d rather watch games won because someone has come on fresh and played well than because players are tired. I’d honestly have as many subs as you want within limits on stoppages, if it didn’t hand such an advantage to rich clubs.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Throws to be taken where the ball left the field. (And taken properly) although the second part might disqualify Lati from throw ins.

2. Bring back the slide tackle from behind

Beat you to it, Pete.

Would be interesting to see how modern players would cope. No subs in in 1966 World Cup Final.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Love the throw in rule
Would b good at grassroots when no one can be arsed to get the ball
I’d like the 6 second rule brought back in for keepers
New rules sin bin for dissent and take throws from where you like behind where the ball went out

 

[Cally Fedora]

Raising the flag when offside rather than 3 minutes after. Being able to tackle.

 

[ceetee]

I'd like to see the existing throw in rules applied

 

[Sbarcher]

Good old fashioned shoulder charges. Nothing wrong with bundling keeper and ball into the net. Used to be a man's game!

 

[cov_george]

for corners, ball actually inside the corner

Is the 6 second rule not a rule any more, or is it a rule that just isn’t being enforced?

I’d change a few things. Get rid of the throw in rule. Let the player throw it however they like. Saying they have to have two feet on the floor and having to throw it a certain way is like telling the corner taker they can only use the inside of their foot. Wastes so much time too.

Also in a much bigger shake up when a team scores a goal they have to take a player off and bring someone on from the crowd. Every fan is breathalysed at the turnstile and the one with highest level gets to go on first.

 

[Nick]

The one where you could just beat the keeper.

Obstruction followed by indirect free kicks

Food for thought.

It’s absolutely still part of law 12 point 2 indirect free kicks


An indirect free kick is awarded if a goalkeeper, inside their penalty area, commits any of the following offences:
• controls the ball with the hand/arm for more than six seconds before releasing it

it’s absolutely not enforced

Such a great idea

 

[oakey]

Bring back a proper contested drop ball.
Only penalise handball if deliberate OR ball is goalbound.
Offside - only if you PIG. Play the ball. Interfere with play or gain a clear advantage. All at the moment you are offside.

Did you see Barnsley’s winner against Wycombe?

It was never enforced when it was a rule

 

[Flying Fokker]

The rule hasn’t changed has it. Just that the players push the boundaries.

It is in the laws has been for a while

Just has to overhang the quadrant

Nothing has changed with the shoulder barge

Consistency of what constitutes a foul, at all levels wherever it happens in the pitch and who it happens too.

"You can't get away with that in the PL", "that's always a foul at international level"

There are one set of rules that cover grassroots right through to international football. The same offence shouldn't be ok at one level but a foul at another level.

Similarly, if something would be given a foul on the halfway line then it should be given a foul in the penalty area.

And also, got can't touch a keeper, but you can wrestle a player to the ground from a corner. The Man City disallowed goal against Liverpool would never had been disallowed if the same minimal contact was on a defender.

3 overseas players (it was something like that) it’s daft that we sit here in England watching a team representing a City with players from all over the world just because we have rich clubs. Kills off youth development unless you’re Jude B and it’s decimated the unearthing of a Scottish or Northern Ireland gem. I can’t imagine a life without Sandy Robertson in it. Bosman has a lot to answer for!!!!
