Why bring in the back pass rule then ? Attacking football is I’d say more common now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opinions I receive now are from a Premiership club scout. One young centre forward currently with a progressive rival L2 club, but not established in their first team has been recommended by him. He thinks he will come good at another club and score plenty of goals. Not sure he will be coming here, but I'll be watching JBs progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignoring that when a team went one nil up they’d just keep passing it back to the keeper to roll it out and receive it back again ? This was a rule change, alongside a change in the offside rule to allow games to be more attacking ? Some things were probably better in the good olds days. But not EVERYTHING!! I’m also sceptical that you could leave your door unlocked back then too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time wasting is common today despite rule changes. It really annoys me when a ref. watches a player walk off slowly from as far away as possible when being substituted if that team is either winning or holding out for a draw. The ref. just looks at his watch and adds time on at the end. The ref. should warn both teams before the game, that any player walking off slowly will be booked, and if he has already been booked he will be sent off and the sub. will not be allowed on.
