Best MOTD in a long while. Goals galore, key incidents shown and
absolutely no commentary or punditry. And I stayed awake
throughout the 20 minutes. Keep it coming I say!

I am all for free speech and I sympathise with lineker in that
regard. However, motd has been a dismal, tedious watch for many
years, in fact it must be around 5 years since I watched an
episode in full

The programme did not cater for the blind, which maybe against
bbc regulations.
The bbc are today showing wsl with world feed commentary so it
could have been done, hope the national institute for the blind
take action against the bbc.

This was a mandatory caution when it was introduced and referees
(certainly at Contrib Level) were hammered by Assessors for not
enforcing it. Another case of lack of back-bone in the face of
whinging clubs.

WSL is different. BBC are not licensed to use any other
commentary feeds for MoTD on Premier League games, including
those that are used by their BBC World broadcasts. An outlier
in the broadcast contract perhaps, but if they can't use their
own commentators on EPL games they cannot use any other feeds.

Have to say I'm not convinced by Collina's arguments in the
article.
Players waste time to break up the flow of play and give their
team time or get a breather & reorganise as much as waste time
in my opinion. Adding additional time on will not stop that
element of it.
I think the best solution would be for referee's and authorities
to take a much stricter line on time wasting and book players
much earlier when it happens and then have the back bone to
actually send players off if/when it continues. Too often I feel
officials leave it too late in games to issue cautions to have
an impact. I also feel referee's are so unlikely to give a
player a second caution for timewasting that players continue to
time waste even after a yellow in that knowledge. There would a
short term uplift in dismissals for timewasting - but I feel it
would have the greater long term impact rather than adding 10+
minutes of stoppage time, in which players will still run the
clock down and disrupt the flow of the game.

I think both are possible.
Adding on more additional time shouldn't be a substitute for not
taking action against clear timewasting.
But equally there are a lot of stoppages where either no one is
to blame or blame is difficult to prove - VAR reviews, subs,
injuries. I think accurately recording these and adding on the
time lost would certainly be a move in the right direction and
is long overdue.
