Remember the days when keepers could pick up a back-pass? Teams would go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to  go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to go marauding forwards to about the half way line then turn and kick it back to the keeper who’d pick it up, take three steps and roll or throw it to a defender to 

Get the idea? It certainly used to kill a game.

I get the idea thanks Micky.

That’s 1 rule with a lot of effort put in. Hence me saying most of em are shite. That one wasn’t.

Why is there this need to constantly fuck about with the game?

Leave it the fuck alone.

I get the clock stop one, it would end time wasting, like when they changed back passes to the keeper, but it would take a lot of getting used to 

The rest are shite and don't offer much in the way of improvement

Works for rugby. Both codes. Ref would be able to signal the timekeeper to stop the clock as often as he feels necessary.

What the actual fuck?!

Surely that’s for soccer, not football.

Sounds like a Yank  idea, playing 3 thirds, and 5 points for a goal and 2 for a corner. Same as they tried when the World Cup was over there.

That has kind of crept in anyway - or at least four quarters - with drinks breaks midweek in winter at Hartlepool
