Easy Changes to Improve the game.

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Triangle shaped goals and penalty circles instead of Penalty box. Make the balls 3 times bigger. Get rid of any club that plays in a red home kit

And fill them with Helium so that goalies and thrower inners won't be able to waste time they will be allowed to kick the ball as high as they want and it takes twenty minutes to come down again. It's a good idea 'cos there'll be no need to play a 'back seven' any more!

Shouldn't have to wait for the referees whistle to take a free-kick.

You don’t now.

Can you imagine listening to half the refs blowing out of their arses, panting like fuck trying to discuss things

True, the amount of times you see em taking a break themselves after a decision is incredible, it’s what the white spray was brought in for! People talk about shithousery time wasters feigning injury as the biggest culprits, but referees often slow the game down to a crawl (see Saturday) imagine if that happened in the Villa game last season in between one of our goals, no title

You do when there's a wall being set up etc and the ref points to his whistle. Should just let them get on with it if they want.

Should be much stronger on swarming the ref. Its ridiculous that it's an automatic yellow for being a bit annoyed and bouncing the ball angrily (which I think is a much healthier release of anger than verbally abusing the ref), but half the team can surround the ref and nothing happens. Probably unrealistic to give out mass bookings and red cards during the match, so I think should be a citing system. If the ref feels they cross a line, anyone he cites can get retrospective punishment, from a warning to yellows or reds.

Rather than a player having to be in line, or behind a defender to be stay on-side, there should need to be a gap/space between them to be off-side....so as long as there is an over-lap when VAR draw their lines, they remain on-side

Kind of hard to explain...but the attacking player must be completely passed the defender to be offside

I know what i mean anyway :-)

the best and easy way to improve football would be to stop pundits, guest, know it alls, 2 hours before and after the game loaded with stats and bollocks ? far too many people make a very good living out of knowing fuck all about the game because they were an ex football player ?

also another improvement would be bringing back standing in all the lower levels

Media trained referees doing post-match interviews, I'm alright ta. We know what referees are thinking, we just disagree sometimes because decisions go against us or because most of us don't know the nuances of the laws.

I have spent many an hour thinking about the offside laws, most of my ideas are crazy like scrapping it all together or zones like 40 yards from the goal or if he was facing the goal ? I know crazy

but this one idea makes it more crazy than the others ? if the defender touches you when you're in on goal
