Benny Harvey posted:Well in basketball it changes when the other team gets possession but in football that would lead to teams just booting it out so I figure it'd be better if the clock only went onto the other team after a shot on target has been made. Also, the time would have to be a lot longer, maybe 5 minutes or more? If the clock runs out before they've had a shot on target then the "defending" team (ie. the one without the shot clock) would get a penalty. I'm all for improving the game if there's a reasonable suggestion, but giving a penalty for the other team not having a shot on target every few minutes is a really, really bad idea. Since penalties are a virtually guaranteed goal, this would likely lead to at least some teams parking eleven men behind the ball, defending like their lives depended on it, and giving the ball back to the other team if they somehow won it, just because if they can block every shot for five minutes they get a free goal. Mourinho would win every game 10-0 with 0% possession. Why bother attacking when if you defend long enough you get handed a golden scoring opportunity?

Give retroactive yellow cards for simulation based on video evidence after the fact and retroactively give players red cards if they get two in a match. Then make the teams replay the game from when the first player would have been sent off, with other players leaving the match when their time comes.

Goals start every match twice as big as they are now and every time a goal is scored they get smaller.

Have 32 seeded teams filtered into four brackets, and another 96 teams filling in the bracket's empty spaces, chosen by a mixture of world rankings (with a revamped world rankings system) and qualifying rounds for the worse nations. Then a straight knockout seven-round tournament.

I would make a change so that if a substitution happens in injury time the commentators don't go insane when the time ticks one second past the final added minute and the referee doesn't immediately end the match.

Yellow cards for players who pick up the ball and run away from fouls to prevent the opposition from taking quick free kicks.

Establish an objective transfer system based on that one guy's FM-style stat pentagons, where every player has a fixed price and fixed wages based on how big their pentagon is.

Well, it's pretty harsh to judge a Russian salary cap in USD right now given the state of the ruble.

Shrapnig posted:I thought the only allure of playing in Russia was ridiculous salaries. Why else would anyone go play in that third world wasteland? iirc a lot of RPL contracts for foreigners are paid in foreign currency so I imagine that if you're one of the overpaid players at an oligarch club in Moscow or St Petersburg getting paid more euros per week than the entire rest of the team makes each year it's probably still pretty nice.

Just regular football only with two balls. All the other rules stay the same. Two refs to watch each ball. If a foul is committed near one ball, the ref watching that ball calls it but you can keep playing with the other ball while you set up the free kick or whatever. Goalkeepers will have to really be on their toes because while you're watching a free kick or penalty, someone else could be trying to score with the second ball.

mackintosh posted:We used to have this in the 80s. 1 point for a draw, 2 for a win and 3 for a win by 3 goals or more. If you were going to do this properly it should be a bonus point for scoring three goals whether you win, lose, or draw though, like in rugby. 0 for a loss, 1 for a draw, 3 for a win, 1 for a loss scoring 3 goals, 2 for a draw scoring 3 goals, 4 for a win scoring three goals. So if it's an exciting 4-3 both teams benefit more than a poo poo 1-0.

Hmmm, there could also be an issue with gentleman's agreements where if teams were tied 2-2 they would both mysteriously score extra goals in stoppage time. But hopefully the game theory problem of cheating (i.e. scoring a cheat goal but then preventing the opposition from scoring their own cheat goal) would be enough to stop that, since teams would rather take the 4 points for a win once they went ahead than settle for the 2 points of a draw.

sweek0 posted:It still seems like a good rule, regardless of whether it's going to be effective 100%. If the independent doctor suspects a concussion, take the player off. If it's confirmed, the player can't play for X amount of time. This is all well and good until Italian teams start bribing doctors to substitute all the other team's best players.
