[Help] New Rules

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Pedant Alert:

Aren't these "laws" not "rules"?

 

[trueblue]

The penalty thing is confusing. From what I've read it seems that at a penalty in normal play, once taken play stops. No rebounds.
From marca-
1. There will be no rebounds from penalties
Play will stop for a restart if a penalty is saved or hits the post, meaning there will be no chance to follow up and score from rebounds, meaning players will no longer need to line up on the edge of the area.
So how do they restart the game?

If this one is not a wind-up, it sounds very odd. The scramble for a rebound is a great dramatic moment in any game - why lose it? I can only assume it's because refs can't cope with the melee which probably quite often should result in another penalty, but never does. With VAR though, they should be able to handle that.

No, the laws of the game are made up of rules. These are individual rules.

4. Substituted players must leave by the nearest touchline or goal line or face a yellow card

That just seems to be inviting the next Cantona moment or a player to get hurt by something thrown from the crowd.

 

[beorhthelm]

all seem rather pointless tinkering, apart from dissent. need to be fixing flawed offside rule, doing something about diving, and why several rules being ignored by refs, such as encrouchment at penalties, Strictly Dance auditions at corners and free kicks.

I suspect it is more to do with the fact that the simpletons in black can't control encroachment.

Best one

7. At set pieces one player from both sides must be outside of the attacking penalty box

Not sure what this one is on about

For two reasons, firstly to encourage attacking play and secondly to help the referee keep control of jostling in the penalty area at set pieces.

With a goal kick.

What a nonsense rule. Basically, if the penalty isn't scored, then whatever happens its immediately a goal kick. No more dramatic chaotic scrambles from a parried save, or from the ball coming back off the woodwork. Nope, if its not in the net, then its a goal kick.

So instantly less goals. Less drama. Brilliant.

I thought football was supposed to be about....entertainment ? I must have it all wrong,

I am the only one that thinks (7) is a wind up

 

[Baldseagull]

Murray was penalised for a handball last season where he brought his hand in front of his face to stop himself getting a busted nose, would that now be within his natural silhouette and not be a hand ball?

 

[Postman Pat]

No way that can be right.

Isn't that more to do with penalty shoot outs?

It is nonsense. I suppose it also means that if a penalty hits the post, then rebounds in off the keeper, that won't count either

With that rule in place - Watford wouldn’t have had one of the best moments of their recent history... (and one of Le Petit Magicien’s worst)

One of the best 'non-Albion' moments in football. Without being involved in any way, it still seems to give me goosebumps of excitement!

Did you choose that link purely as the main photo is of the lovely Wilf getting a yellow card (followed by red)? Top work if so!

Sorry if fixturers but there was a big announcement from Scotland over the weekend, accompied by the excellent Dua Lipa track of the same name IFAB announced new rules to be implemented from next season.

https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/11652949/handball-rules-among-those-amended-by-international-fa-board

1. Accidental handball goals will be disallowed regardless of intent
2. Handball will be given if it strikes an arm beyond the body's natural silhouette
3. Attackers banned from walls at free kicks
4. Substituted players must leave by the nearest touchline or goal line or face a yellow card
5. Goalkeepers need only have one foot on the goal line at penalties, their other foot can be in a place of their choosing
6. Red and yellow cards to be shown to dissenting team officials depending on seriousness of dissent and who it is directed at.
7. At set pieces one player from both sides must be outside of the attacking penalty box

Crodo, I thought this was a wind up, Crodostylee. How wrong I was.

Or.....was I?

The substitution one is a good idea but if Bruno stays another year how are we going to give him a standing ovation in his last game when he is subbed off ?

He stands on the centre circle, as far away from any touchline as possible.

Does anyone actually like or see the merit in the changes to penalties.

You will never see this again
