Proposed changes to the rules of football.
Apparently the organising bodies are trialing some fundamental changes to the game including;
Two 30 minute halves.
Unlimited substitutes
Throw ins replaced with kick ins
5/10 minute yellow cards.
I have not seen anything , officially, on this but three different people have been messaging me about them.
Assuming there is an element of truth on this what are people’s thoughts on the proposed changes?

If true the football authorities are hell bent on ruining the game.

Three 30 minute halves, surely.

Throw ins replaced by kick ins reduces City’s attacking options by fifty per cent at a stroke :hehe:.

Bar the 30 minute half, it is ridiculous. That has some sense but I'm still against it.
Unlimited subs is a farce and the other rules just aren't needed. You've got the best game in the world, stop messing with it.

Heard something about the 30 minute halves recently, not sure where.
Wouldn't be a fan of any of those listed really.

I did think you might be too astute to have made such a faux pas but I thought it needed saying as it was a bit too subtle for some :thumbup:
I've mentioned before about these clowns messing with the beautiful game.
It ain't broke so why try and fix it :frown:

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
Isn't 30 minutes the average time the ball is in play so I assume that rule would be combined with a time-keeper?

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
Unlimited subs is a dreadful idea, more advantages to the larger teams
"Kick ins" will just see you getting the ball smashed into the box all the time. That and unlimited subs probably ends up with "special teams" where the tall lads all get chucked on at set pieces
Sin bins is a bad idea, particularly with some of the ridiculous yellows you see

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
5/10 minute cards only works if they get VAR working (personally I don't want VAR at all)

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
I’m sure I heard of 30 minute halves a long time ago but on the premise that the clock was stopped every time it was out of play akin to other sports.
Throw ins goal kicks etc would all be clock stopped and would work out about the same

I heard as well that from now all players have to hold on to a bar that's is the width of the pitch. The bonus is that will be permitted to do back/forward flips to pass the ball.

the 30 minute "ball in play" halves would mean that most of not all Cardiff games would have more actual football played and it would cut out a lot of the timewasting

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
Professional football at the highest levels is predominately a sport for the media. That's where the money comes from, the actual 'crowd' in attendance are just a studio audience akin to Strictly - just adding a bit of atmosphere. If the changes were to bring in even more money, then it'll happen, no doubt..
-
Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
not keen on unlimited subs, as it'll benefit the best tes more.
don't mind kick ins instead of throw ins but only in your own half.
the 30 minute ball in play I quite like, the only downside is if they start sneaking in tv ads to the stoppages

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
No worries, as the football associations of England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales permanently control changes in the global rules of the game, and those paragons of common sense would never authorise anything silly. Would they?

always seems ridiculous to me that Wales has more of a say in the laws of the game than Italy or Brazil

Re: Proposed changes to the rules of football.
I heard this a few years ago. The clock would stop at any stop in play. apparently it allows for more play time overall but it would also lead to an annoying countdown at the end of every game

I don't think that would be annoying - it would just be a hooter like in rugby league wouldn't it?

Probably be a section of annoying fans that do the count down from 10 every game.

Is that more or less annoying than fans whistling from the 90th minute onwards to try to get the ref to blow up in games their team is clinging on?
