It’s too much interpretation for the ref. Alftredo Morales could be one on one with Craig Gordon, I wouldn’t consider it a clear goal scoring opportunity. |

I understand the rules, thank you. It's the rules that I'm taking issue with. |

Ok but my original point stands. Why is some minor infingement in the corner of the box equal to a free shot on goal? The punishment does not fit the crime, if you will. |

It's a daft wee one but I wouldn't let keepers collect the ball outside the box and bring it inside to pick it up. It's a bit too 'pass-backy' for me. Make them kick it, encourage attackers to close them down and chase 'lost causes'. It'll lead to a few more goals. |

The ref already does. I've always wanted an indirect FK for those accidental 'ball to hand' handballs that gives the defender an advantage, or breaks up a move. |

Shielding the ball out. Should be obstruction. |

![]() Seen this on Twitter earlier. I'm not a huge fan of xG, but the Spain and Nigeria outliers only had a "<20% chance" of being a goal. They got a pen, and a pen is an 80% chance. I'd like to see some test games with a hockey-style penalty area. |

This one has always ripped ma knittin, if in the middle of the park you made no attempt to play the ball and were pushing someone away with your arse for 10mtrs a foul would be given...but it is allowed when "shepherding" the ball out for a bye kick! |

Red card for this " he's taken one for the team" pish, it normally blatantly stops a counter attack ,spoiling the game. |

Definitely. And pulling a Suarez/Cuellar on the line should be an instant goal and red card too. |

Not so much rules, but I think my biggest bugbear with football is the amount of time wasted and the amount of time actually spent "playing". There have been small "samples" done on this by someone on Twitter, I can't remember who by, basically suggesting we're missing out on up to 30 minutes in a 90-minute game, and "time added" at the end is a joke. Small example being five minutes added on in the England game tonight, which to most fans would appear reasonable. Three subs, the 3+minute penalty fiasco, two goals, the number of fouls, free-kicks, injuries, yellows, time-wasting and breaks in play equates to more than 10 minutes, IMO. |

Giving random fouls when a centreback and striker are battling for space to win a header when the ball has kicked up from a goalkick. Just let them get on with it |

What can really be done though? If you stop the clock each time the game would last for ages and be similar to NFL games. I'm sure advertisers would love that though. |

Stop clock last ten mins. Would lead to more entertaining ends to games. Absolutely hate it when you see a ref add on four minutes, and the ball is only in play for one and he blows. |

In terms of goals scored yes. If you take 40 shots and and can't score but another team managed a goal, whether by penalty or open play, the team that scored deserves their victory. Now if the question is does a team that doesn't try to score and holds out for a shoot out deserve to go through, then I'd say no. |

Maybe stop the clock at free-kicks, penalties, goals, cards, injuries and substitutions. Throw-ins and corners, perhaps leave them as it make it too stop-start, give time-wasters a yellow. Even reducing the game to two 40-minute halves could improve what can become tedious and annoying 'processes' in the modern game. |
