What works in rugby though ? You don't/can't have time wasting in rugby, not like the keeper walking from one side of his goal to the other to take a goal kick, or a player being replaced taking a minute to leave the pitch, yes you can add that time on, but if the time wasting team then go behind, why should they then benefit from it, and be given extra time to find an equaliser ?

just have an independent time keeper who stops the clock whenever the balls out of play
 
What about yaya getting taken out in the box when the ball had already gone clear penalty the cnunt

You miss my point though, if we did that time wasting could increase, and the team wasting time could still benefit at the end if they found themselves behind.

Rugby, as an example, doesn't have the same issue, as there aren't opportunities to time waste like in football. Replacements are made whilst "in play", minor injuries are often treated whilst "in play".

I agree that the ball needs to be in play more, but there would still have to be some protocol as to how it was done, when do you add time on, and when not ? We can't add "all" time on, as games would last hours.

You stop the clock for injuries and after a goal has been scored.

As for nailing time wasting down...easy, its a cautionable offence so the laws of the game already have it covered.

We just need the ref to do his/her job thats all.

We have had the odd ref who has stumped up at The Etihad and the ensuing 'performance' clearly indicated that, as he was shit for both teams, he wasn't bent just effin' useless. But it is a remarkable thing that opposition hackers are allowed two or three bites at our players' shins before the ref decides the number's rung a bell. I have counted numerous examples over the last two or three seasons where our players are carded for the first indiscretion. It'g getting to the point at the Etihad these days where this scenario is every cuffin' match! The one who cops for a first foul booking is Fernandinho. I bet he's right pissed off with the treatment he gets from referees. Sterling is another one who seems to land bizarre sanctions. The ball hits his back OUTSIDE the area and it's a pen; he's upended INSIDE the area and he's booked for diving. I bet the lad wonders when he goes to the barber's whether or not he's come for a shit or a haircut.

Nothing pisses me off more these days at a football match where a referee constantly ignores blatant time wasting. Do they not understand what is written in the Laws of the Game and that it is cautionable, or have I misinterpreted the Law and that a player has to run onto CBL2 and sit with the ball in his lap before he decides it's time for a card? Players should know the Laws of the Game before they enter the pitch and there should be NO reason whatsoever for a referee to TALK to a player and EXPLAIN anything! Waste time, booked. Simple! If they can't hack that part of the job then my advice would be to fuck off and give the whistle to someone who will!
 
Giant plastic screens round the pitch. No corners, throw ins or goal kicks. Keeps the fans off as well. Trainers and ambulance men dangling from overhead cranes. Spare crane for sending offs. Its the future.
 
McInally on my feed yesterday was screaming for dihno to be booked after about 45 seconds for fuck all and then was actually laughing at us not getting an even break of decisions around the 30 min mark.

Its obvious we're getting shafted and is laughed about.

In a league where physicality has almost been wiped out over the last few years by the FA and PGMOL, it never ceases to amaze me just how easy it is to blow for any contact by one of us and invariably issue a card whilst completely ignoring what the other side is doing.

Yesterday, palace where guilty of nothing more than and i quote, "getting in our faces" and its all fine and dandy yet Nolito on the half way line makes the most innocuous challenge and boom, yellow card and its a naughty challenge for which he can have no complaints?

How many fouls did Cabaye get away with yesterday with not even a word in his ear?

The game is bent, end of and its looking like we will have to do more than just outplay opponents again if we are to lift the title.

correct.

anyone remember the flak going about when the agenda was ever mentioned.

it was as clear as day then as it is today.

I'm not saying it doesn't need adapting for football, but it's a system that could be tweaked and be more transparent

That will never work. Or would lead to games going on far too long.
A couple of years ago the average ball in play time was about 63 minutes. There isn't a cat in hell's chance of getting 90 minutes.
What we need is an independent time keeper as you say, but adding time according to guidelines. For example a team could have up to ten seconds to take a throw-in or goal kick and perhaps twenty for a corner or free kick as the wall has to be arranged or defenders moved upfield etc. Thirty seconds for a penalty as there's always an argument however clear it is. Perhaps ten seconds to get players on and off at a substitution. Time would also be stopped for treatment to injured players.
Cards would be automatically handed out if players deliberately slowed the game down by swapping sides for goal kicks or lining up a free kick and then calling someone else across the pitch to take it at the last minute.
Done, dusted and dead easy to implement at the top few divisions in each country.
Perhaps we could force 70 minutes playing time?
 
We won and we are complaining about the ref, tells me how sh*te he was. First half i thought he had left his card at home; the Zabba incident should see the Linner sent to spec savers and have a a dog and white stick allocated.

You know that isn't the daftest suggestion, if everyone knew that the ball would be in play for the same amount of time regardless, and could see how long remained, there would no point time wasting, probably less "going down" to waste a few seconds, no point walking across the box for a keeper, or calling someone 50 yards away to take a late throw in.
I agree with some of the other suggestions, but for subs, like rugby, I'd allow them "in play", so no time wasting subs, we have a 4th official so they could easily enforce only 11 on the pitch at one moment.

@andyhinch I can see how it might work thinking down these lines.
 
I like the idea of subs "on the fly", will give the 4th official (wonder how much he gets paid?)something to do apart from looking all important when he's holding up his board or checking the coaches dont put a foot over the tech line......he could check studs etc and send the sub on as soon as the the player coming off crosses the white line....might even stop the walk of death by the subbed player if he knows play will continue during the substitution.
 
Had a quick nosy on a palace forum earlier and astonishingly they think we're cheating, time wasting scum who conned the ref, who was totally biased in our favour

Speaking to a rag recently about numerous situations in football, & he couldn't get his head around the fact that I was slagging off the way football is run, & has been run, & the amount of corruption involved & how I want it stopped, when we (according to him) 'are going to storm away with everything & beat everybody for years to come & what the fuck are you moaning about ?'.

Which is how rags think, & how the 'traditional' clubs with 'history' all have all been operating for decades & maybe over a century.

i'm not comfortable with becoming part of that, no matter how much we win. I hope we use our increasing influence in the right way & try to keep some kind of honesty about us & don't just sign up to it.

But they have a drum, and goal music, and sing shite generic Euro team crap, and think Pardew isn't a ****. So their opinions aren't exactly those of the educated.
