rednotblue Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 For example a player doing the fake jog when getting substituted. Be a man and WALK. The ref should have stopped his watch anyhow whilst the substitution is completed. However he should book the player for simulation.

Nibor Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Shielding the ball out of play - should be allowed to go through the back of their knees with both feet. Or it should be obstruction if you don't play it. Injured players having to leave the pitch when a foul is given in their favour - why penalise the victim? Not contesting drop balls - pansies, get at it. Kicking the ball out of play for an injury - let the ref stop it if it's serious, if not play on.
A Horse With No Name Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 When a team at the bottom of the league needs to win a tricky away game on the last day of the season to have a chance of staying up, and do so because the home team just couldn't be bothered to try.
Midlands Robin Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 When Sky try and pretend that three middle of the road Premier League fixtures are a 'Super Sunday' When finishing 4th and qualifying for the Champions League is deemed a major success and more important than winning the FA or League cups.
WTFiGO!?! Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 The geeky scrutiny of it and people thinking their opinions actually matter.

Davefevs Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 The loan system. It is far too rigid now, although accept it was too flexible previously. You should not be allowed to loan to a club in the same division. However I'd relax that if the club paid the full extent of the player's contract, e.g. 100% of wages, win bonus, appearance fee etc etc. The Joe Hart loan is a farce!
Guest Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 The offside rule.....why? if an attacker gets goalside of a defender that's the defenders fault, so why give a free kick to the defending side ?. Defenders are supposed to defend the goal not the refs ?

reddoh Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 No sliding tackles from behind players no longer trying too hide ouch that hurts keepers taking more than four steps the excitement I had as a kid watching the game.
Floatn Over Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Parachute payments. Relegated ? Get used to it and adjust I say. Would make Championship a lot leveller.
The Dolman Pragmatist Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 The complete inability to recognise that the opposite of the word 'loan' is 'borrow'. We didn't loan Tammy Abraham from Chelsea, we borrowed him. Oh, and players making loud shrieking noises when subject to the minimum of physical contact. Pathetic and embarrassing.
Red Grovesy Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Controversial. People who turn up ten mins after kick off and can't find their seats, standing in front of you and blocking your view of the game. It wasn't like it in the old days............. there were no seats!
Rossendale Red Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 So many to choose from, as mentioned above parachute payments (basically rewarding failure), pre match handshakes. Its a wonder why we all bother eh?! Thing that grates me most though is the amount of grappling that goes on at corners and the ref pausing play to warn the offending players. Just give a bloody decision when the ball comes in...if there's 5 penalties per game so be it!

Admin Maesknoll Posted July 28, 2017 Admin Posted July 28, 2017 The sanitisation of football, people who complain about bad language because there are kids sat near, fans who have no grasp that a home ground should feel hostile to the opposition and on occasion, the officials. Not being able to pay on the turnstile - could easily have a contactless card reader there. The Gas, they annoy me, real shame they bounced back from non league obscurity.

That would require un-allocated seating in whichever stands it was used in and as we all know, for our own comfort and safety, the club need to know exactly who is sitting where. Which brings me onto.... allocated seating. It slows down everything from buying a ticket to finding your seat. I hate it.

Is it not within the ability of a software designer to allocate a spare seat when the contactless payment is made? Totally agree with you on allocated seating and big brother knowing all.......
Kodjias Wrist Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 When Man Utd fans say they have had a terrible time over the last five years because they havent won the title. When Arsenal fans moan after finishing top four for over a decade. When sky sports repeats the same news story three times in an hour about meaningless premier league news. In summary I hate what the prem has become.
Welcome To The Jungle Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Agents, Owners and Sky/BT. Get rid of these three and it'd be so much better again. Bonus: Red Bull. Disgraceful scum
ColeCiderRed Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Nelson Mandela House always getting a mention whenever we play. Followed by sleeping giant Bristol City. Every live game no matter if it's Sky or the Beeb. It's like it's scripted. Find it quite irritating.

Lack of Action Man Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 1) The number of tin-pot clubs in the PL these days, when you have historically larger clubs in the lower leagues. 2) Transfer fees and wages 3) No more indirect free kicks for obstruction 4) The lack of uncontested drop balls, and when a contested drop ball is awarded how no one seems to realise that there is no law which states it has to be a 1v1 - you can have as many players contesting the drop ball as you like!

Offside Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 That new-ish rule where goalkeepers get to choose which side to take goal kicks from really annoys me - it gives teams another opportunity for time wasting (another bugbear of mine). My list goes on: diving; players pulling their socks up above their knees; refs not dealing with blatant shirt pulling in the penalty area during corners; parachute payments; players taking the ball into the corner to time waste... I'd better stop before I work myself up into a rage.
New Dazzler Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Fans who assume that a player has dived just because he has ended up on the floor, and the ref has not given a free kick/penalty.
