10 minute substitution of an outfield player for the backup goalie, what if he gets a yellow then?

It realistically couldn't replace cautions altogether, and frankly I have doubts that anyone currently involved in running the game could implement (or oversee the implementation of) such a rule in an adequate manner. Doesn't make it a bad idea though.

Red card and penalty is a harsh punishment. Should only be red if its a reckless/dangerous challenge as well

Turn the yellow card into a sin bin card as suggested, but also add an orange card which functions like the current yellow. In addition each team's manager gets a joker card they can play for 15 minutes each match. In that 15 minute period every ref's decision is doubled: score a goal? Two goals! Every foul becomes a yellow card offence, yellow counts as orange, orange counts as red and red gets an extra player of the aggrieved team's choice sent off. But be wary: the joker affects both teams equally: take down an opposing player in the box and you could be down two men and facing two penalties!

This sounds like a great element and I think it will add a lot to the game's strategy.

Anything that leads to more chances is good, teams can just suck the life out of a game now and its fuckass boring to watch. Especially internationals.

If the joker card overlaps into half time the teams have to have a dance off, winning team gets to select a player on the other team who has to play the rest of the match with his boots on the wrong feet.

Yeah well in hockey they have more gradual punishment: minors (your average penalty like tripping, cross-checking, etc) is 2 minutes and if the other team scores the penalty ends, more nasty stuff is 5 and doesn't end on a goal, and if a guy gets injured off a penalty it's usually a 5 min major plus the offender gets sent off.

(Plus there's subtle differences between leagues/sanctioning bodies in regards to what is a penalty/how long you sit for, but you get that anywhere.)

If a winning teams goes a match without using the joker card, they get a Double Joker Card in their next game and they may force one player from the other club to switch sides for 15 minutes. If the other team uses a Double Joker Card during the same minute, however, a Reversal of Fortune is played and two players must defect from the original team for 30 minutes. If a team goes without usage of a Double Joker Card for the entire match, in their next home game the club must declare a "house law" that will function as a normal Law of the Game so long as it affects both sides equally.

Most of them are so old they know that they either won't be around by 2022 or by then they would have sacrificed enough pure vigins to ensure they spend the rest of their days living in luxury on a tropical island somewhere. they are just leaving it for the next lot to deal with which probably means a decision will be made some time in 2021.

Yes, it hit like 40 degrees in Aus with the tennis and they had reports of players vomiting and passing out. Of course in tennis they play for 4 or 5 minutes followed by a rest, so letting football players play non stop for 45 minutes I guess there will be a few on pitch deaths occurring.

They are going to somehow air-condition the stadiums while at the same time having them be open-air with no roofing. That's what was put in their proposal.

Bills come in big plastic-wrapped stacks of plastic-wrapped wads to individual banks, in print order obviously, and if you take out a large amount of money it'll just be paid in those wads for convenience sake, instead of counting out used notes in the till (likely not enough in branch tills for bribery amounts anyway), so they'll be sequential. If you get a big chunk of sequential bills paid to you it's obvious those bills were exclusively used for that transaction and taken from the bank for that specific transaction, and they can work out roughly what timeframe it was taken from the bank from when and where those notes where delivered, and thus find the actual account it was taken from. Non sequential could be accumulated from any number of things from any number of people or places.
