Sanguine A surprising proposal is expected to be put up for discussion which would mean that penalties are “one shot” – and that there will be no rebounds if the kick is saved or strikes the goal-frame and bounces back into play.
It would mean that goals such as the one scored by Paul Pogba for Manchester United against Everton in the Premier League last Sunday would be ruled out. In that match Pogba’s penalty was saved by goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, but the midfielder scored from the rebound.
If such a change was made it would mean that the ball would be deemed “dead” once the keeper had blocked the penalty and a goal-kick would be awarded. It would be the same as in a shoot-out and would do away with the problem of players encroaching..

windermereROYALHendowindermereROYAL The way to solve the substitute problem is for the ref to add on the appropriate time, Christ it`s not rocket science is it? also do away with injury time subs, fcuking hate it when they do that.
Doing away with rebounds from pens as well I hear,
What about if a player is injured or the 'keeper gets sent off and you need to sub one on?
Hard luck, it rarely happens, mostly its just to run the clock down.

Sanguine Another new rule will no longer allow an attacking player to stand in the wall next to defenders at free-kicks after a one-metre 'exclusion zone' around the wall was also approved.
I don't like this one either.
I'm not a fan of pushing or shoving in the wall, but if an attacking team wants to put a player on the end of it who moves out of the way, then I don't see that as unfair play. And again, this is about officiating properly - if the attacking player creates a gap by pushing someone in the wall, then award a free kick against him.

6ft Kerplunk Why have they decided on a 1m exclusion when everything in football is measured in yards? Don't really have a problem with that change, having the attacking player stood 1m in front or behind still allows them to block the keeper's view and takes away any of the pushing incidents.

As I said though, why are we creating a new rule to prevent the breaking of an old one? If an attacker fouls whilst stood on the end of a wall, give a free kick.
There are some fundamental rules in football that are being changed by this fiddling. Defensive players must be 10 yards from the attacking free-kick - now, unless there is a wall in place, in which case they can't stand on a certain part of that arc.
As per my comment on the (thankfully dropped) change on penalties; referees just need to officiate encroachment properly.

Also all players should be forced into celebrating goals. None of this not celebrating against a club I was on loan at for a month 10 years ago crap

This reminds me that Balotelli (of all people) never celebrates his goals, as he feels he is just 'doing his job'.

Jack Celliers All of these rule changes seem needless. This fiddling reminds of some of the reasons why rugby isn't very good.
The worst one I heard was that handball no longer has to deliberate if it leads to a goal.

LWJWinston BiscuitLWJ They can and do, do it.
never seen it (aside from Sunday league etc)
Can you give me an example I could look up?
Off the top of my head, no.
Generic example if a player is injured and treated on one side of the pitch/leaves via stretcher they don't have to do it at the half way line. The player coming on always has to go on from the halfway though.
