In other sports, the time left on the clock is just that- down to the hundredth of a second and subject to careful review and outright debate. In footie, it's like, "Right, well, that's full-time. But not really. Let's play another, I dunno, 8 minutes sound good? Perhaps a shade more? I'll call the missus, let her know. Right. Have at it, then."

Aye, but if they did that in football then it would require stopping the clock when the ball goes out of play. Currently, the ball is only in play for about 55 minutes per 90 played. So essentially, players would be breaking down left, right and centre, and we would all be leaving games at about 6pm or later.

Perhaps 30 minute halves are needed.

As has been stated in several ther threads, time is added on to added time for goal celebrations. There were 4 yesterday. If no goals had been scored then, the ref would have blown his whistle after 6 minutes.

In the good old days goal celebrations were a quick shake of the hand and a cursory nod.

Now if you don't have a pre-planned dance/mime routine involving half the team, you're letting the side down

You would imagine if the rule on stopping the clock every time the ball went out of play came in that the game would actually speed up as there would be no advantage from delaying the game.

Rugby seems to manage this well in so much as the referees call for the clock to be stopped at injuries etc but not when the ball goes out over the sidelines

I think there needs to be something, as otherwise it just seems at the whim of one man with absolutely no accountability or transparacy

That's not to say what happened on Saturday was wrong, I was at game not watching the clock - but it is a big issue in football

Only point is about speeding the game up, it wouldn't do so as teams will still timewaste to stop the momentum and slow it down - you'd end up needing to have a clock to get the game started again!

I was amazed that there was still another 90 seconds after they got their fourth. It makes me think that had we scored then, there might have been enough time for Charlton to make it 5-5 given our inevitable goal celebration.

Do they do the same for goal celebrations during normal time? The fact there is sometimes little or no added time in the first half of many games suggests not.

I think the system is OK, i.e. 90 minutes + stoppages, I just think how much time they decide to add needs to be more reliably measured. It seems like regardless of the amount of stoppages they just add somewhere around 5-7 minutes to a second half. I also think refs need to be quicker to punish time wasting. Charlton played the game in the right spirit and fair play, they never gave up and snatched a point, but some teams we've played this season have been ridiculous with it. The refs let goalkeepers take an age to take kicks for example, and if they book them they generally only do it in about the 95th minute, thus wasting even more time, despite having watched it happen for half an hour prior.

The tech is there to stop the clock when the ref wants to, they do it very well in rugby and have for a while now.

I’ve often believed when a physio comes on, the player who goes off should be made to stay off for a minimum of a minute. Nothing worse in my book than a player going down as if they’ve been taken out by a sniper, have the physio on for what feels like 25 mins, then hobble off, to then run on again seconds later. If the player was made to stay off until for a minute or until the next break in play, that would soon stop players going down.

I also never understand when there is a break in play, why do they wait till right at the end to make a sub. Soon as the game is stopped, get the sub on. Nothing worse than a 4 min wait whilst a player gets treatment, they get off the pitch and suddenly a sub is getting ready to come on.
