Additional time

[quincunx]

added additional time?
bring it on, i say...

we are incredibly privileged to be watching this city side right now.
every additional minute of being able to do so adds to that privilege.
i'd be happy if games went on for 120 minutes just to watch us playing.

Went to see Mission Impossible last weekend......a couple got up and left 10 mins before the end....I was amazed

To be fair the movie was only reaching halftime. Unless, you were watching the very first Mission Impossible at the Manchester Odeon, before they ripped it down...

This rule should work in our favour and is great for bets for more goals and for both teams to score.

Liverpool and Utd are going to get 15 mins extra, every home match, when not winning

Cricket

Not really "timed", is it.
Crowd know what time play stops.
Public address lets them know at what time play will stop.
After that, it's just a matter of being able to count to 6, or a target being reached

 

[Sky Blue Thinking]

Is the correct answer.

Can see it coming, just look at how quick Eddie is booked for time wasting compared to whichever keeper we were playing against last season.

Usually with Eddie starting taking his time in the last 5mins while some opposing keepers start timewasting in the first 5...Eddie also doesnt seem to get the hurry up arm gestures from officials, its straight to a booking...

If we are winning we will still only get 3 mins.

2 mins if we are getting beat or drawing.

I'll guarantee our games if we only 1 up they'll be more added time if we were 1 down they'll be less minutes added! End of this season those stats will come true!

Tbf, giving him the hurry up gesture 8/9 times & looking at his watch another half a dozen times wouldn't leave any time to book him.

It's also very noticeable that the commentary is very very quick to point out him taking his time but never at the other end of the pitch.

Keep up, no fuker likes us…..

I've got a very radical solution. Get the referees to do their job. There's no need for 11 added minutes if the ref books the keeper early on, refuses to be conned by a pretend injury and doesnt allow Arteta to hold training sessions every 15 minutes.

 

[give it to gordon]

Like any new ruling it will last about 3 or 4 games and than go back to normal. Once the dippers or rags lose in the 10th minute of extra time or when the tv complain about losing advertising time.

Whilst I'm recovering from knee op, I've been re-watching all the Champions League games.

There is hardly any time wasting from both sides. Both teams just trying to play football as how it should be.

I take it you didn't watch any Atletico games then.

No, just the City games. ;-)

It's about time fooking fed up with being robbed by time-wasting, inept officials.
We pay a lot of money to watch 90mins of football not 70.
As earlier post mentions though give it a month as soon as red tops are on receiving end of a injury time winner all will change back

Which our first opponents next Friday can do on one hand

Nine minutes at Leicester v Coventry.

What will the early leavers do if there’s 8 mins each week effectively you be missing nearly 15 min or so of a match
