On subject of time wasting/keeping, what happened to that initiative that saw 10 minutes being added to every half of football for stoppages. Seemed to be for one season and world cup and then went back to normal.

They're still doing it in the Premier League. Source: playing fantasy football and having defenders hanging on to a clean sheet at 90 mins and knowing I'm fucked

It won't last long , they brought time wasting rules in the EFL changes last season, remember first few games loads of extra time etc ? , then to me all went back to as before.

I see Revell has had a moan about keepers feigning injury after their team have a player sent off too

The Wigan one was the worst, they effectively got a 5-7 minute time out to reorganise with the manager due to their team cheating. Something should be done about that too

As I said to a middle aged man giving the Wigan keeper the full HOLD ME BACK to the Wigan keeper in front of his kids “you don’t complain when our keeper time wastes”. He looked bemused that anyone would challenge him

Did our keeper go down and then amazingly recover completely yesterday?
Players should all move to and be held in the centre circle while a keeper is treated. Anyone who leaves it, yellow card.
It'd stop fake keeper injuries immediately.
At least when an outfield player is treated they are held for 30 seconds.

Yeah not sure we’re a club that can ever moan about faking injuries to talk tactics.

To be fair, Neil Metcalfe has clearly led him down that path as he has been moaning about it like mad the past couple of weeks, and written multiple articles about it.
And we did exactly that yesterday, with Cooper pretending to have a thigh/hamstring issue after Huddersfield's second goal so our players could all go over to the bench for a chat. You cannot complain about something you yourself engage in.

Now we know refs and the authorities say its acceptable behaviour we have now joined in with it. Like diving, if it doesn't get stamped out you have to join them

In 20 years time football matches will be 80 mins of keepers lying on their belly clutching the ball at their chest, and 10 minutes of players faking head injuries.

Plus 15 minutes added time for VAR stoppages.

I’d go more severe. A penalty.
