Don’t Allow time for Corners

[originaltrueblade]

But refs do. It should only be allowed for a penalty but refs have been ignoring this law for many a season

Manure and Brighton a big example today

It should be down to tge 4th official to stop the clock at set pieces. It should also be stopped whilst the ball is airborne and at any other given time during the game. Supporters pay for 90 minutes not 50 mins and 40 minutes of "Air time"

Timing is getting worse with VAR. I can't for the life of me figure out why they don't stop the clock for VAR reviews. Knowing how long certain calls take, I think it's a joke that there's not better time management from referees.

With all the interuptions from VAR, we still get the token 4/5 minutes at the end of each game. I'm not advocating it that the time is stopped every time the ball goes out of play but certainly for major incidents such as goals and VAR referrals it should be. If they did it for subs as well it would also cut down on all this taking half an hour to walk off shite.

Did Man U bring on Van der Beek during injury time? If they did the ref will add at least 30 seconds over the extra time allowed at 90mins.

EDIT. he came on at 90+1 so additional time would have been added to extra time for the substitution. Did it in my referee exams.

There's nothing in the rules that says the ball has to be in a neutral area for the game to end but we all know that's what refs do. It's standard practice. Occasionally the ref blows full-time on a throw or something but mostly he'll let a keeper clear it and blow when it hits the half-way line. As ever, the frustration is that all you'll ever see said is that refs aren't instructed to do it even though they very clear are.

Time keeping is always terrible when it works against you.

Never understood why they need to let a team have one last attack before blowing up. I find it infuriating. Even more so when they allow a corner to be taken.

When time is up it should be up like every other sport manages. An independent time keeper would be far better than the ref adding “about 5 mins” on no matter what’s happened.

Average time the ball is in play in a Prem game is something like 55 minutes (can't remember exactly). So we'd see more football by reducing a match to 60 minutes with a stop clock.

You mean like rugby union and rugby league where play can go on for unlimited amount of time while the ball is still live?

It’s just another one of those things that football does that doesn’t make any sense to me. It’s as if for some reason the rules makers have a huge arrogance that it’s a far superior sport which can’t learn from any other sport.

It would be so simple to implement, have an official time keeper to stop the clock and move it back if required. As soon as hits 90 minutes, the match is over when the ball nexts goes out of play.

A multi billion pound sport and we’ve got a bloke keeping time with his old Casio watch.

Pisses me off when time's up and the ball goes out for a goal kick. Everybody knows that's the end of the game, but we're then treated to an additional 30+ seconds of the keeper slowly getting the ball, ambling about, eventually taking the kick and the ref blowing for time when it's in the air. Just blow when the ball first goes out man

All you self righteous posters on this thread will be all delighted that that abject w@nksock Paul Tierney blew up bang on time today (+1s) even though we had the ball in an advanced position and Leeds had subbed Alioski on in added time. Summary: refs cheat with timekeeping to benefit 'media' loved teams. You know it and you need to embrace the confirmation bias. Any one who says anything else is dreaming.

He played over in first half when we was attacking, almost wanting us to shoot or put a cross in but we didn't.

Just like diving is rewarded, so is time wasting. It is a joke.

The Rotherham v Wycombe game this season was apparently a record low, the ball was in play for less than 36 minutes!!
