    Summat very fishy going on me thinks.

    If it's not bent, I'm happy they're adding more on with all the time wasting. But I'm pretty sure it'll be something dodgy :D

    Some dogy official type decisions do far.....forgetting the appalling VAR penalties in the England game what about us being down to 10 and Dyer trying to get on for about 5 minutes....effectively playing with 10?

    It ought to happen in our league matches , there is so much time wasting in our game with players feigning injuries , throw ins taken from the wrong place , fake head injuries when teams are under pressure, goalkeepers walking from one side to the other to take kicks , the list is endless & the first thing I would do is to stop towels being used to dry the ball , just ban their use as it just takes time out of the game , there has to be something introduced to monitor added time but sticking more time on for time wasting just to show teams they will not get away with it for a start .

    Most games, the ball is in play less than 60minutes out of the 90.
    Make it a 60 minute game where the clock stops when the ball is dead. Simple. No time wasting ever again.

    no complaints about ref. - rightly clamped down on the physical challenges from the US players early in the game.

    The four longest periods of added time for any single half of a game in the World Cup Finals, since records began in 1966 were all on Monday, with the top 2 being from the same game (England v Iran)!!

    Totally agree. The only problem would be it would slow the game down even more. There would be no incentive for any stoppage to be minimised,; e.g. taking goal kicks. It is funny how keepers on the losing side are much quicker with goal kicks.
