I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the injury time added by the ref 08:43 - Aug 17 with 1858 views | The_Flashing_Smile | Almost 7 minutes by the time he blew. The 6 mins that went up on the board was bad enough... but 6 and a half had passed when he awarded the corner. Yes we made a sub, so technically you're supposed to add on 30 secs for that (but how many actually do?) Even so, that had passed before they won the corner. I'd have been livid if they'd scored from it. Still seems like the time wasting tactics of the rest of this league work better than when we attempt it. And why is it never a massively long injury time when we're comfortably in front? My nails have gone! |  |

I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the injury time added by the ref on 11:30 - Aug 17 by ITFC_Forever | Burgess coming on was during injury time as well. So that's 30 additional seconds to be added on right there, in addition to Leigh's booking and kicking the ball away. |
I mentioned the sub in the OP! I've included that. Whatever, seems I'm in the minority but I was screaming at the telly at Dolly Towers. |  |

I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the injury time added by the ref on 11:33 - Aug 17 by N2_Blue | Great if refs are actually now applying the right amount of time. I think in the long run it will help us. We've comfortably seen out games with lots of added time and there are going to be games where we need to find a winner. With our squad depth and the 5 subs it will be an advantage I'm certain we will score more gaols and win more points after 90 minutes s than we lose so more injury time over the whole season may be a good thing. |
As you say, as long as they're consistent! |  |

I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the injury time added by the ref on 11:38 - Aug 17 by The_Flashing_Smile | So do I. I don't want them adding on a bit more just to let the oppo have a corner though! |
I was curious so I checked the replay. Edmundson goes down with cramp and the referee stops the game for 29 seconds, the Burgess sub takes 34 seconds, Leigh kicks the ball away and gets a yellow card (although doesn't manage to waste much time, it only takes 5 seconds or so for Burton to get the ball back). The ball goes out for their corner on 96.23 and the ref blows up immediately after they take it (96.50). More than enough there to justify Burton being allowed to take their corner. Overall the ball is out of play for 3 minutes and 38 seconds during extra time, which is pretty decent game management by us! |  |

Fair enough. I don't even remember the Edmundson cramp and 34 secs seems a lot for the Burgess sub, but I don't doubt you're right. Seems like the ref played it to the letter (or rather number) which the don't always do. So some consistency would be nice. My Ipswich bias may have affected the timings in my head as well! |  |

I'm amazed no-one's mentioned the injury time added by the ref on 12:11 - Aug 17 with 291 views | Sharkey | 7 minutes is quite normal these days. Tom Eastman scored in the 97th minute last night (on his 400th league appearance for the U's) , and Bradford still had time to hit the post afterwards. I don't know about Town's last night, but at least in League 2 goal celebrations seem to be getting longer and longer and longer. Hopefully it's just the hot weather. Bringing on two subs 'at the same time' seems to take at least twice as long as bringing on one sub. The days of going to the pub after an evening game seem to be over. I was going to moan that kick-off should be 7.30 not 7.45, then I noticed I should be glad it's 7.45 as many clubs seem to favour 8. I think it makes them feel like they're playing European football.

You could probably discount a few seconds from the Burgess sub. The ball goes out for a Burton goal kick and that's the time it takes from ball going out to play resuming. But Burton would've taken 5-10 seconds to set up their goal kick anyway. The Edmundson cramp is a double whammy for Burton. Walton has the ball in hand for a few seconds, Edmundson goes down, ref stops play, Edmundson sorts himself out after 29 seconds (not long enough to get a physio on or mean he has to leave the pitch), then the ref does a drop ball into Walton's hands, at which point he takes another 15 seconds to take his goal kick! Plus when the ball goes out on 6.23, even if you're only adding 30 additional seconds, I guess the convention is you let them take it and then blow up? Refs don't generally blow up with the ball out of play. |  |

I have to agree, it was always going to be closer to seven, if the ref books a player for time wasting during the six, he has to add some more time on. The additional substitution added 30 seconds, and the booking appears to have added an additional 15 seconds - not that controversial. |  | |  |
