Wasn't there a rule once a keeper had to release the ball on so many seconds after receiving it? Used to only be able to take 4 steps as well before kicking or releasing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpo Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 3 hours ago, Magister said: there is a law of the game ( rarely used) which says he can be penalised with an indirect free kick for holding the ball for longer than 6 seconds. Was taken out of the rule book after it was controversially applied in the 2012 women's Olympic tournament semi finals. It's now "referee's discretion".

I hate all time wasting, but it seems acceptable now and time is supposedly added on to compensate. It's the time wasting that frustrates fans and it should be stamped out of the game. If I were a ref I would go into each dressing room before the game and give them a warning. Players walking off slowly would be booked and if they continued to walk slowly, or run slower than they walk, they would receive a red card and no sub would be allowed on. Goalkeepers should be booked on their first attempt to waste time and sent off if they do it again. Yes we all hate time wasting but if we. Are winning 1-0 with a minute to go on Saturday I will be furious if one of our players runs off upon being substututed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 We see it in cricket too, batsmen stalling for time in the days final over, tapping the pitch, picking up tiny bits of debris. They never get booked though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh_latics Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Yeah, I think the 6 second rule is still in existence. Mignolet got caught out a couple of seasons ago - 22 seconds! http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/simon-mignolet-explaining-six-second-10513022 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Nepomuceno arrived he looked like a player with a decent amount of skill but lacking in match fitness and awareness of the English (League 1) game. He has definitely come on hugely in the latter two areas - and looks like he might be a good ‘un. If we see similar progress with our other imports that will do for me ?

He's not as exciting as wingers can be but does & will have his moments. Decent delivery, should have a few goals in him over time and our shape seems better with him in the side. He's clearly been well coached where he's played previously. Edited November 23, 2017 by HarryBosch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exciting but can’t cross are the normal wingers. This guy can cross! I’d take that over a pacy run down the wing and no end product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counting to 6 might be beyond the ability of some of the refs we get.... or maybe they just can't be arsed The ref we had vs Scunthorpe didn't have the ability to count the 10 yards for free kicks.... or maybe he couldn't be arsed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just my type of Winger Harry, defensively sound! Joking aside he's very industrious too and isn't too bad going forward. Rightly ahead of Menig for me.

Lee Sinnott Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 He sometimes looks like he's never played football in his life and he looks like he needs to shift a few pounds. But he can dig out a fantastic cross and is quite important to the shape we have in the side... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 The danger with this is that you assume the creature would have all the best attributes. I remember when the Beckhams had their first son my mate saying what a good footballer he would be. I pointed out he might become a really shit singer.
