Tonight's relegation tussle

[The Lone Gunman]

We’ve seen goalies booked for time wasting at goal kicks, forwards grabbing the ball and placing it in the six yard box for the opposing ‘keeper to take goal kicks. The Liverpool players would have ran with the ball and placed it on the centre spot in the same way. Players are very often booked for time wasting at throw ins. Players from the losing team very often run after a ball when it’s out of play and retrieve it and place it on the restart spot when it’s evidently not their kick.

None of that answers my question, though.

Apologies, but this has been a bugbear of mine for years. I just don't get it at all. It's my kick-off, but it's apparently fine for you to wrestle the ball off me and run away with it. Utter nonsense.

Just stop clock when goal scored. Time on doesn’t begin til the kick off. Sorted.
