Change Two Football Rules


Marka Ragnos

Recommended Posts

I'd like how players speak to the ref to be handled basically just like Rugby. Only the captain and they address him with respect or they get yellows.

But my 2 rules changes would be:

1. Scrap all the silliness about whether a player is "in play" or not. If you're within 30m of the ball, you're offside.

2. Penalties should be like those MLS penalties from the 90s where you start 35 yards out and have 5 seconds to shoot, but you can dribble first.

They tried that before in the US back in the day and it doesn't work as you can just goal hang. Offside is essential to the game.

Tye one thing i would like to see is some punnishment for players who fake head injuries just to stop the game or stop the opposition from scoring. It must be easy to work out who is faking and who isn't.

Its not infalliable but mostly would make for some great seasons haha

It's literally completely unworkable: the main impact would be to make it so every team, as soon as they realise they can't win the league, would be incentivised to lose every game for the rest of the season.

The rule change I wanted to post, but couldn't remember when this thread was started has just popped into my head (slow work day), and it doesn't look as though anyone else has suggested it so I'll revive the thread.

A penalty kick should be just that - one direct shot on goal from the penalty spot. If the keeper saves it, the ball is automatically out of play and the game restarts with a goal kick. The odds are already massively stacked against the keeper and IMO its unfair that a keeper can save a penalty and then concede if the ball rebounds to an attacking player

A penalty kick consists of a player running with the ball from the half way line and he has 8 seconds to shoot on Goal. I know it's been done before but bring it back!

I also like the idea of replacing shootouts. It's an awful way to lose a knockout game.

I've always liked the idea that after 120 mins, each side loses an outfield player every 5 minutes until a golden goal is scored.
