       New Eight Second Law For Goalkeepers

       Thoughts and comments on the new rule/law? Good or bad? Will it
       cause more problems for Referees? How will it be decided from
       which side the corner kick will be taken?

       Just another complication for referees to remember. If this is
       applied then something similar should be in place for throw ins.
       It wont solve any issue of time wasting (if that is its
       purpose).
       Add on the correct amount of time or do a rugby and have the
       time stop (or dedicated time keeper)

       It will be easier for referees to apply and therefore actually
       applied.  There isn't much a referee dislikes more than trying
       to manage an IDFK in the penalty area, whereas corners happen
       routinely throughout games.  Plus the visual / audio countdown
       from 5 to 0 make it more obvious.

       It’s a joke rule. We have a rule already. Try enforcing that one
       first

       It will only work if PGMOL want it to work, and judging by the
       six second rule it will not happen in domestic matches.

       else

       1 match if one of the big 6 concedes a goal from a corner given
       for it and whip the shareholders into a screeching frenzy of we
       don’t like it!

       Its good to be cynical about the implementation but apparently
       it has been trialled but according to what I heard, only 4
       occasions led to corner kick.

       I’m always suspicious of the various tests and trials. It’s a
       bit like getting people to run a dummy stocks and shares account
       - it has zero correlation with the real world. It doesn’t matter
       until it’s your own money on the line.
       In this instance, the trials have nothing like the same jeopardy
       as a Champions League or Premier League match. I can’t wait for
       the moaning when the first goalkeeper is shown to hold the ball
       for 9 seconds without releasing it… or when a goalkeeper
       basically cannot release it quick enough because of attackers in
       the penalty area.
       It’s a blunt instrument and my prediction is that it becomes the
       exact same thing as the current Law. Irrelevant.

       We will still have goalkeepers wasting time on goal kicks moving
       the ball from one side of the goal to the other, going to take a
       short kick but then waving defenders upfield etc. We should go
       back to the goal kick being taken on the side the ball goes out
       and no defenders allowed in the box.
