Now they're coming for our penalties.

The sooner we're out of Europe and we can get back to proper British rules up the better.
Re: Now they're coming for our penalties.
I like it
Personally I'd do away with pens and go back to extra time golden goal with a twist. Take 2 players off at the end of 90 then 1 every 10 minutes until someone scores.
Involves more skill and tactics than a penalty shoot out

What happens when it's just the 2 keepers on the pitch?

You play with 7 minimum to 30 mins max then go to a penalty shoot out

What if one of the teams has previously had a man sent off?
Re: Now they're coming for our penalties.
Let's just scrap the penalties and toss a coin like they used to.
John Terry would still be allowed to put on his kit for the toss up if he wasn't in the squad.

They play with 1 less obviously

Yeah, but do they only then have a maximum of 10 minutes of extra time because they'd be down to 7 men sooner? Not sure your idea is a goer TBH

It's not rocket science you take 2 men off after 90 mins so if someone is sent off and it's 11 v 10 it then it becomes 9 v 8, 8v 7, 7 v 6. 3 x 10 min periods. If after 30 mins maximum still can't separate you go to pens.
Or 15 mins per 2 extra time periods as now and go 9v9 first period then if no golden goal then 7v7.
No more extra time than now and more likely to get a winner especially if golden goal.

Nah, all sounds a bit convoluted to me. Keep thinking up the ideas though, something will stick sooner or later. :thumbup:
Re: Now they're coming for our penalties.
Better to adopt the hockey-style shoot-out.
One player takes ball from eg, centre spot, has a fixed time to beat keeper.
Re: Now they're coming for our penalties.
Mad as hatter me, what about taking the penalties "FIRST" :wave:
Just putting it out there.
ie:---- Before KO.

Undue pressure on one side to win, the other side to 'park the bus' ?

But, (NSASWB:hehe:), if the park the bus side conceded, then game on.
What about the FIRST side to score wins if tied after 120mins.
What about "CORNER COUNT"

They trialled that in a cup comp in the 70s (can't recall which one.. Intertoto or some crap, probably.

All of these ideas are worse than a pelanty shootout, and pelanties are hardly perfect.

This.
Re: Now they're coming for our penalties.
If the scores remain level after extra time simply let the teams share the spoils, trophies for everyone!

it's like left wing politics but in football.

Alternatively, nobody wins.
If you're not good enough to win the game after two hours then you don't deserve the trophy.
Next time, make more effort.
