grazza Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Vast majority of games I see that go to extra time go to penalties without a goal or clear cut chance and is a borefest. Teams just play far too defensive. Either scrap it and go straight to pens or change it up a bit. The golden goal was quite good but I guess it would mean teams would still be uber defensive to not risk losing. They should try reducing the amount of players on the pitch in extra time perhaps making teams play a player less. So down to 10 men in first half then 9 men in the second half of ET and open play up a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they should do is let all of the subs play in extra time making it 22(?) a side and next goal is the winner. Utter carnage and entertaining as f**k.

placidcasual Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Hardly the worst idea ever. Force teams to take a man off every 5 minutes in extra time. I'm in mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So down to 10 men in first half then 9 men in the second half of ET and open play up a bit more. The golden goal and its brief successor, the silver goal, sounded like good ideas, but were counter intuitive. Instead of encouraging attacking play to seal victory, the height of the stakes created a terror of losing that led to more defensive play. I agree though that extra time in most cases, just seems to be a stalling exercise before penalties. The idea of reducing numbers on the field for it has been touted before. I like the sound of it, but I'm not sure how it would pan out in practice. I'd also like the penalties to be replaced by shots from the eighteen yard line. Scoring would therefore be notable in such shoot out, as opposed to missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellbhoy Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Scrap the off-side rule after 90 minutes and offer a PURGE type anarchy were no red or yellow cards are shown and all challenges are legal, should be fun IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeyboy edwards Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Hardly the worst idea ever. Force teams to take a man off every 5 minutes in extra time. I'm in mate. I'm with you on this one. One man off after the 90, then a man off every 5 mins in extra time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Straight to penalties after 90 minutes. I like the idea of going straight to pens after 90mins but then playing extra time after that. Basically one team knows they have to win in extra time as they lost the shootout. The other team know that a draw is good enough. It means you'd have a 30 minute period where one team is always needing to score. It also takes away some of the lottery of penalties as you still have the chance to win using more conventional methods. And for any poor c**t that missed they have the ultimate chance to make amends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stair Park Stafford Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I agree extra time is shite. I have stood on the terraces a few years back watching my local team SRFC on a freezing night. 90 minutes level then extra time, in the last minute the away team missed a sitter which resulted in booing from the home fans because it meant penalties we just wanted to get home and out of the freezing conditions, but the fans stayed and endured penalties and the away team won. No grumbling from the home fans just a swift exit to get out of the freezing conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any downsides to this penalties first then ET idea? I've given it a bit of thought and can't think of anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itzdrk Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Why don't they just do away with it and have an 11 man penalty shootout. Sudden death after the 11th man (current sending off rules apply). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insideinfo Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The Yanks had the right idea with no draws. Instead of penalties, player ran from the half way line, one on one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
