What if...? - The Questions Nobody Asked

[RadcliffeRick]

What if games were 75 mins instead of 90.

Three periods of 25 mins each, so 2 breaks of 10 mins.

People would still leave early!!

How about treating free kicks same as a tap penalty at rugby, it would speed the game up.

A slight side-track.
What if Rugby matches were won by the side which scores the most tries?
(Kicked points only significant if tries are equal)

Of course, originally it was the complete opposite.

Tries counted for nothing other than a try at kicking a goal.

Hi blues, looking for your help!

People who have seen me posting on here might know I do a lot of 'data stuff'. That is my day job as it happens. So I've started a bit of a hobby blog (it is not monetized in any way, so this isn't a sales pitch).

If I'm honest, I started it more for my own amusement and a place to put my thoughts. It is all about looking at ridiculous hypothetical situations in football, and using data and analytics (which is normally for serious things) to try and spin some outlandish scenarios. The first one is about what would happen if City stopped passing and just started bombing shots from anywhere:

So the reason I'm here is basically to look for suggestions on what I can look at next. Ideas I've had:

- What if Guardiola managed Bromley?
- What if the ball was never allowed to leave the ground?
- What if you got rid of the offside rule overnight?

Would love to hear more ridiculous ideas along these lines, what would people here like to see? Doesn't have to be City related (hence the general forum). Or you can just call me a rag and tell me to fuck off. I'm expecting a mix of both of these responses!

By the way, there's this really bizarre new feature Google has where they will make a podcast out of your article - it's a bit unnerving but quite cool - you can listen to it at the top of the page.

How many goals from corners would we concede if when the opposition had a corner we left 5 on the half way line?
