Apologies if posted, but he was a guest on a recent under the cosh podcast which I listened to today. At the very end he openly admits about his time wasting and how much he loves it. He said that even if you waste a few mins, it kills all momentum which is impossible for teams to get back. He gave an example of recently throwing his bottle into the net. The ref noticed and wouldn’t let play continue, so he ended up wasting about 7 mins walking around with this bottle. 3 mins was added to the half.
I can’t believe more isn’t being done to stop this. Even if you gave the benefit of the doubt, surely admitting to it and how you’ll do it all season is worth at least a talking to. |  |

I’m appalled that this was posted over an hour ago and I’m the first to do this:

Why wouldn't he love it? I'd love it to if I was a keeper and getting away with it. |  |

And why shouldn't he gat away with it? Timewasting is an accepted part of the modern game and refs do little to crack down (tho things have improved a bit this season, with greater added time). |  |

The greater added time is purely from substitutions. They have a set amount of time they add per goal scored and per substitution (or appear to have) and the only bit that is variable is if the game is stopped for an injury/major interruption.
It would be better to have an external timekeeper where the clock gets stopped when the ball goes dead and reduce the half to 30 minutes. It still wouldn't stop it happening in order to break up momentum, but it would stop the taking forever over a free kick/throw in/goal kick/corner/etc. |  |

The text on that website has very strong "Written by his wife the morning after the first time she found him sat on the sofa next to the Au Pair/Nanny" vibes.
Just a few too many "family man" and "loving husband" tags dropped in there. | | | |

Brings to mind a bloke at work who came to me once with a genuinely pained expression on his face and said "Why does nobody do any decent skiving any more? It used to be an art-form." |  |

Also something needs doing about players leaping in front of the ball to stop a quick free kick, thought that was an automatic yellow ! | |

Surely this is the sort of thing that, in other sports, would warrant a charge of 'bringing the game into disrepute'?
Where else but football would you ever get away with declaring that you regularly cheat, and love doing it? | |

On Tuesday, Barrow were 3-0 up against Colchester with about 10 minutes left and the keeper got booked for time-wasting, and a few minutes later was really pushing his luck not to get a second yellow for the same thing. Seems keepers just can't not do it!
(Curiously, the ref was Darren Bond, whose brother Andy played 160 games for Barrow directly followed by 120 or so for Colchester ) [Post edited 3 Nov 2022 10:39]

Not sure we're in much of a position to clutch our pearls over this. We've done our fair share of deliberate dawdling in tight games we're winning. Unfortunate that we didn't do about 30 seconds more of it on Saturday. |  |
