Things I'd like to see abolished next season...

[Westbrook Blade]

Players surrounding the ref like a pack of wolves - how about just the captain being able to speak to the ref, any other players within 5 yards gets a yellow!

South Yorkshire Police
Stop dictating and whining and just do your fucking job.......
PROPERLY

 

[norfolkblade]

Point one - agree entirely. This was usually confined to International matches or the FA Cup final. Totally unnecessary and there only for the cameras

Not quite. I played a few games in the Anglian Combination League (a local league down here) and we had those stupid fucking handshakes in that as well - not a camera in sight!

How that of all things has made it's way to grassroots football is beyond my level of intellect.

 

[carthesis]

Steve Claridge.

Never have truer words been spoken.

 

[Rodders]

Other people sitting in the Westfield Corner.

 

[Harry's Game]

Tossing for “Ends” at the kick off should go.

It’s meant to be Home advantage, let the home side kick whichever way they want to, as a Kop fan it spoils the experience somewhat when we are kicking towards the Lane end second half.

 

[TJB.]

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

Gary Lineker.

 

[bromtom]

Gary Lineker.

Nowt wrong with Big Ears.

ITV having any football should be abolished though. Poo 'tasche and the men with no chemistry have been bleeding awful this world cup.

 

[Sharrow Snuff Mill]

The Pig band.

 

[SUFC Guy]

There's only one for me:

The award of a free kick for pathetic diving and falling to the floor the moment a player is touched while shielding the ball.

Some of it is disgusting and so blatantly obvious but the ref gives it anyway. It never used to be like this and it wouldn't be difficult to revert back.

God knows what the egg chasers think of it when they see it happening.

 

[Blades80]

Football agents!!!

1. The smell of the botulism burgers outside the ground.
2. Gary Sinclair. Please shut up for two minutes and give your fucking arse a chance.
3. Turn down the fucking PA system. It’s been scientifically proven that standing next to Apollo 11 at lift off was quieter than the loudspeakers at the Lane.
4. Cheaper ale prices in the ground. It’s lager not fucking Cristal champagne you cunts.
5. Those shit facts they’ve painted on the girders on the south stand. It just reminds everybody that we’ve won fuck all of any significance for ninety years.
6. The beagles who have to have a fag or 12 at half time. Its like Stars in Your Eyes with all the bastard smoke in the concourse.
7. Sheffield Wednesday. Bell ends.

Our fans cheering raucously every time our CF wins a header that goes straight to the oppositions feet .

[Billyblade]

The attempted mowing down of pedestrians at the corner of Cherry Street and Shoreham Street. Put your fucking Volvo back in the car park and wait ten fucking minutes, there's quite a few people about
E-cigs that smell like someone's boiling Fruit Shoots. I've never smoked but miss the smell of fags
Cold water in the shit-houses
Every other row of seats in the Kop so I can go home with my cartilages intact
Opposition players celebrating a goal "at" us.

On that last point, why do some opposing players run up to the crowd when they score and give it that "silent" pose with finger on lips? Nobody said owt did they?

 

[Jon Bon II]

Crossbars. And posts to be replaced by a full housebrick with a tracksuit top or discarded shirt behind them. Then get VAR to determine if a shot was 'in', 'over' or 'ovver t'post'. Fun for all...

Depends who it is.
Quite a few people had said summat to Madine

3. Players going off the pitch to come back on again.

It's about time they stopped this little ritual as well isn't it? This is another stupid time-waster. Making a player, who's gone down injured, go off the pitch, and be re-introduced again before he can resume. It's really this simple, if a player is injured, then gerroff the pitch. If a player isn't injured, then gerrup and gerron we it. Let play carry on around 'em whilst they are sprawled out on the pitch with their fake injuries - it won't matter. They'll soon get up again when they realise that the game is carrying on without them.

Totally agree. In fact I'd go as far as introducing a rule where players who are so badly 'injured' as they make out should face a mandatory five minutes off the pitch in which they can get as much care as they need.

We'd all play like Columbia then to get the other team down to 8 or 9 on the pitch

Ahem...... see post #26.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

People looking at their phones all the time then proceeding to shout out Stevenage are winning 2-0. Believe it or not i don't give a F#$k about Stevenage, Chelsea, Mansfield or any of the other 88 league sides.
If you are that intrested in scores stay at home and watch Soccer Saturday.

 

[DaveBassettsgoneonholiday]

Coloured boots, other than black.

Carpet slipper boots.Boots should actually be bloody boots and afford some protection to the general foot area.

Players having their socks pulled up under their shorts so it looks like they're wearing stockings.Anyone found doing this should be made to wear fishnets until they're suitably embarrassed in to never doing it again.

Names on shirts. Seriously, can anyone actually read these unless you're sat on the front row and a player's taking a throw right in front of you ?

 

[The Crab]

[Addison]

Shirts with plain backs. Sponsors logos that aren't red white and black. Stick on sponsor logos. In short whoever signed off this seasons Home Shirt.

 

[Steve Mackan]

2. Gary Sinclair. Please shut up for two minutes and give your fucking arse a chance.

Especial when G-Sync gives them his own special nickname; Duff, Bill, Couttsy. Hope Henderson never gets subbed - Hendersonny

 

[Carlton Blade]

Intentional fouls that stop counter attacks. It's applauded as 'professional'. I hate it (personally annoys me more than diving) and I think it should be a red card

 

[Bladeloyal]

Bell ends being bell ends on the concourse .

 

[ourbob]

Magic sponge.

What narcotics are in that thing?

 

[Bellypork]

The abolition of financial (un)fair play.
