I'm confused. In the rule they described it says nothing about a subjective decision, but then they talk about subjective decision. What am I missing?
@
Why they dont keep the goalkeeper box just for the keeper during corners
@
Is it that my speaker isn't working well or this video just has low volume
@
whats up with the sound in one ear phone only

Idk
But id rather have them properly implement the rules they've already got before adding more rules that they can't implement anyways😂
@
How can someone know if the injury is fake?
@
They were saying on Talksport, you will just find a Striker going down instead

Just have a sub goal keeper come on, while the original keeper is dragged off the pitch crying and treated behind the goal. Also, if the issue is preventing a tactical team talk on the sideline, just make it a red card offence.
@
wouldn't it just be better to say no teams going over to the touchline while an injured player is being attended to?
@
my left ear enjoyed this
@
Should be if goalkeeper has to be subbed also. No punishment I mean
@
While they are at it, they need to stop unforced added time subs.
@
more convolution of existing rules to make it harder for the refs and harder for everyone to understand. They should have just made it that he must immediately leave the filed and the reserve keeper comes on until the first keeper is "fixed".
@
Well managers will happily nominate the striker or a player who is visibly knackered plus they'll probably prepare for when defending with 10 men in training
@
Yes Please
@
these officials are the problem, give em an itch they'll take a mile
@
👂🏾
@
It's good but it's not good
@
As Chelsea / Exeter fan I saw is happened far to much in league one so I’m kinda glad is finally getting sorted
@
The problem with all new rules (which is the same with VAR) is that they still have a grey area.😂The only consistent thing ive seen is the goal tech.😂😂😂😂
