I think the FA need to bring a fair play rule in that says you can't take this kind of corner or the stop start penalty that players always do as it's not fair on the keeper who can no longer come off his line.
I can't see why the officials can't come out after each game and explain decisions. I think it's long overdue for this.
When I listen to 606 on R5, often I hear people say why can't the officials be
allowed to explain their decisions? It would then make sense to us fans why that particular controversial decision was taken. As far as the corner/stop start penalty think, I think the stop/start penalty should be made a automatic yellow card offence and the decision reversed.
On the corner thing, I think there should be either a 30 second time limit on taking of corners or a corner judge should be sit on the corner and only comes into play when there is corner. Any similar infringement like Blackburn's should also warrant as automatic yellow card or maybe a sin bin could be introduced when for that type
of offence that that the player who was responsible should sit in a sin for 2 minutes like they do for ice hockey.

Are all the teams going to start playing in fancy dress
Somehow JT in fancy dress wouldn't be entertaining viewing!

I've argued this many a times, when a manager says something after a game he gets slapped by the FA yet refs & linesmen could stop all this by being made to give interviews themselves.
A manager disagrees with a bad decision, he gets fined or banned, a ref/linesman makes a bad decision he gets payed to ref a Championship game the week after. Hows that fair!!!
I disagree. The officials shouldn't have to come out after a game and explain any decision. They make decisions in a tiny time frame. Yes they do make mistakes like anyone else. Managers rarely explain with honesty their decisions, and don't always admit their mistakes. Instead they are very quick to blame the players or the officials.
Having a ref come out after and say "Yep, I've looked at the replay, he did dive in the box it was never a penalty" just undermines the job he is doing. We can see for ourselves and make our own judgements. I don't need to hear any bullshit from kunts like Jeff Winter.
I've been to games where the ref is being a right prick, but sometimes when your in the stands and you feel you are being wrongly accused it can galvanize the crowd and change a game and lead to you beating 14 men
The less attention given to referee's the better.
its easy to sort out you have video replays in game for penalties, goals and off the ball incidents. people object to this on the grounds has it would spoil the flow of the game, well you have stopages for goalkicks, throw ins, freekicks, corners etc. and these dont spoil the flow of the game. football is about 5yrs behind most sports that use video replays in game. players would stop diving if they know that there is a video ref looking at peanlty area incidents.
with the 2nd decade of the premier league coming up i wonder who would win a match between these 2 teams
1st decade
schmeichel
neville adams hendry
keane
giggs scholes
zola bergkamp
cantona shearer
subs 1.seaman 2.pallister 3.mcmanaman 4.fowler 5.viera 6.andy cole 7.ginola
2nd decade
reina
terry vidic ashley cole
makelele
gerrard lampard
ronaldo henry
van nisterooy drogba
subs 1.cech 2.carragher 3.rooney 4.pires 5.alonso 6.fabregas 7.sagna
Have you just picked those teams or were they voted for in a poll ?
Although the formations are a bit bizarre, I think the 1st team is class.
finally, the fa might have goal-line technology in football next season, here's hopin! that it will happen. but something tell me mr blatter or the other heads at fifa might be once again against it.
. which i don't know why. having goal-line technology will stop such controversy like "was the whole ball over the goal-line" & such! this sort of debate will help the referee out and stop rival mangers blaming the ref after a match

I would agree, I would think Mr Blatter and those at FIFA might be once again come out against it, and it certainly would annoy me too!
I do think that it's time Fifa stopped dragging it heels on this. it is the 2st Centrury and football is lagging behind other sports using technology. Maybe Mr. Pulis' (Stoke manager) piece in the
Star today
might provide another way forward.

That'd be a game mate. Both teams are scary. Couldn't call it...
