It would be an interesting experiment just to see what an offside-free game looked like. I saw a game in a kids tournament about u9s or 10s I'd guess, small pitches , no offsides, where a team had a keeper who could kick the call the length of the pitch. Their tactic was to stand their biggest player next to our short keeper and aim every goal kick(which were all out of the keepers hands) to the big lad.

One of the teams, Lincoln I think, had a beanpole striker, who just stood in front of the keeper from every set piece. They got promoted. Rule was scrapped.

handsofclay Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 6G pitches that are super intelligent and can indicate immediately if a player is offside, doing away with VAR. Also will be able to know if a player is feigning injury and if he is can administer an electric shock through the pitch to the precise point where the guilty party is, the strength of the shock being determined by how much the player had exaggerated their affliction. When free kicks are awarded the pitch will indicate the precise blade of grass from which it should be taken and create a ten yard electrified buffer zone which electrocutes any opposing players who encroach before the kick is taken. If a player goes down genuinely injured the pitch isolates him by a subterranean cubicle suddenly emerging from under the player, allowing play to continue while he receives treatment. Inside the cubicle will be an emergency medical team complete with all the latest medical lifesaving equipment, monitors, drips, blood transfusion stuff etc., etc. This will be a massive upgrade on the magic sponge. The pitch can also change colour so that if a team is playing in green or a bluish green and blending in with the grass too much, the pitch will change to a light orange colour. Indeed, the pitch will be so intelligent it will figure out the best colour to be within seconds of the kick-off having studied all the kits on view as well as background colours to ascertain the most outstanding canvas it can provide. If a player is taking a free-kick he can pick up a blade of grass and instead of letting it go to see what direction any wind is blowing, he Dan just ask the grass and receive an answer as well as getting answers on how far away from goal they are and whether it's best to go for goal or play it into the box etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

handsofclay Posted July 20, 2019 Report Share Posted July 20, 2019 If a substitution is made in the last minute of injury time in the 2nd half, the oncoming substitute has to do something to entertain the crowd at the end of the match to justify his very late addition to the game. Maybe a few card tricks, sawing a woman in half, belting out a few numbers, doing a stand up routine etc, etc. If at the conclusion of his act he doesn't obtain a very decent level of applause, then the club are reported to the FA/EFL and lose the opportunity to use substitutes in injury time for the next 50 matches.
