If we are going to go with completely out the box not a chance of ever happening ideas here's mine:

In cup comps do away with pens and re-introduce golden goal, but with a difference. After every 5 minutes of extra time each team has to take a player off, so by half time in extra time the game would be 8 a side In the unlikely event of a game reaching the end of the usual extra time period it would be 5 a side! Would be a real tactical test for Managers deciding who to take off and when.

Let’s get stuck into the mad ideas then.

League format still applies but if you beat a team you can opt to switch places in the table. Would be great to see Nottingham Forest escaping relegation on the final day to become champions thanks to a 2-1 win over Man City, who are consigned to relegation.

If we're going for mad ones can I suggest instead of penalties extra time becomes multi-ball.

Every 5 minutes another ball is introduced and you play until you're two goals ahead.

And each one of a differing colour. It would make it much more exciting trying to guess which colour would be coming next.

Not a rule change more protection for skilled players ie.COH,de Bruyne,Salah ,players of their ilk.Where they get clobbered by a player who gets booked .Then they rotate the 1 marking them until they get booked and so on the referee should be able to tell the captain the next 1 to get abookable offence against him is off.

Goals should be celebrated with just a firm handshake rather than all this effeminate European nonsense.

Signals from corner takers should involve more complex hand semaphore, fists, finger raised etc to intimidate the opposition and entertain the crowd.

Stop players from their latest fad, making holes in their socks. Scruffy

No spitting. They should be made to swallow it. Red card offence if they don't.

Are you still talking about football?

Whatever floats your boat.

Teams can introduce one of a set rule once per rule per season.

The rules could be:
Nothing over head height
Rush keeper
Half pitch
Replace throw ins with kick ins

oakey · Sep 28, 2022

Long sleeve shirts OR
Short sleeve shirts with bare arms.
Refs should sort this out before the game. Anyone who sneaks on incorrectly dressed returns to changing room and can only return at next stoppage.

Barbados 4–2 Grenada - Wikipedia

Stumbled across this earlier.... completely mad but sounds very entertaining trying to defend both goals at the same time.

Ha ha, not heard that before, sounds incredible!

I think, to alleviate trouble at football matches, a new rule should be brought in to protect certain groups.

It would be much better and safer if we make all women sit together, all gays, all black people and then split them further by Tory/Labour.

It would make stadiums much happier environments.

Someone could be all of those things?? Where do they sit? Although Tory/labour is more unlikely, Tony Blair managed it….

A serious one from me.....

I've said similar before somewhere on this forum, but the whole ethos of punishing fouls/cheating is totally arse-about-face and needs turning on its head...

Professional fouls should be a straight red card, and by "professional" i mean any player deliberately cheating to gain an advantage...
Deliberate handball
Diving
Kicking the ball away
"cynical" fouls ie pulling someone back on a counter-attack and "taking one for the team".... its not clever play or game management, its blatant cheating, and football as an industry won't call it out because the game is riddled with it.

Non-professional fouls ie missing a tackle by a split-second shouldn't be straight red cards because they are deemed "dangerous", if they are genuine attempts to get the ball.
Neither should any form of non-deliberate handball be penalised.

On a more broader level, i'd scrap VAR, it has done nothing to take controversy or shit decisions out of the game.
I'd also give a champions league place to the FA Cup winners and not 4th in the league... in fact i'd be massively in favour of reverting back to the European competition format before the champions league, ie European Cup, UEFA Cup, ECWC.

Definitely agree on the fouls and cynical stuff.

Easy. One half in each designated area.

If you are all things, you obviously wouldn't be let in.

Any racist scumbag that throws a banana on the pitch is dragged into the centre circle and made to swallow it whole

Personally I don't like the format of the 'Champions League'. For me the detail is in the name 'Champions'. I know it's all about sponsership and ultimately money, but I think it should be exclusivly for the winners of a league and not a team who finished fourth. So often the team that wins the 'Champions League' is not even the champion of their own domestic league.

Yeah definitely. The Champions League is essentially the super league with the same teams most seasons.

Would be great to see it just as Champions then bring back the proper Uefa Cup and Cup Winners Cup.

And an end to the 'Race for 4th place' nonsense.
2 legged knock out ties until the final, No group crap. 32 teams, A total of 61 games. Then all the managers could stop moaning about fixture congestion.

Very quietly at the back.
