       Time Keepers do not have any power - they stop and start the
       clock on the referees say so. What it does do, however, is take
       pressure off the referee
       In rugby union there are set guidelines to when a game can
       finish, time keeper makes ref aware and at the next suitable
       stoppage the game ends
       If the clock in this match has reached zero, the game ends,
       regardless of ball position, who is attacking etc
       If football wants to allow final attacks, then this would have
       to be written into Law.
       Independent time keepers would only work if referees stopped the
       clock and then the concept of added time disappears

       during this game.  In the five minutes and ten seconds that was
       played, after five had been indicated, the ball was in play for
       one minute and 59 seconds.  During stoppage time there were two
       VAR checks, one lasting 21 seconds, the other 54, One minute and
       ten seconds passed with no action while Newcastle set up a free
       kick on the edge of the Liverpool penalty area.

       Which is completely unsupportable. Plainly obvious that, if you
       originally say 5 minutes need to be added, over half of that
       can’t then be wasted by yet more stoppages. Otherwise, it
       encourages time wasting, as you know it never realistically gets
       close to being added on, so you may as well endlessly waste
       time. Yes, a stadium clock might work, but I really never
       understand why referees find it so hard to manage - just add
       more time on ….

       I note the rumours that FIFA will extend the experiment in U21
       games whereby referees will award a corner if the keeper fails
       to play the ball within 8 seconds. The official will count down
       five, four, three etc. My view is what the heck are referees
       doing now? Not enforcing the Law? Bizarre. Referees appear to be
       not enforcing adequate laws regarding time keeping as if there
       is another agenda which is to not upset clubs!

       It’s the most ludicrous proposed rule change I’ve ever heard.
       They can’t enforce 6 seconds now so what evidence do they have
       they see going to enforce 8? And what’s the point in giving a
       corner ?

       Because the law makers realise what a dogs dinner is usually
       created when you have an IDFK in the area
       At least this way the corner can be played, ref finds a push and
       GK can waste time with a place kick 😉
