And would keep the ball for an age...the 6 second rule is still there and you could tell when the North was shouting 9...10....11...12 I'd love a ref to make an example of someone and just give the indirect free kick they are meant too, like I would happily book players who take their time going off the pitch (to an extent) you're a pro footballer you play twice a week, work on the training ground at least 3 hours a day, you can run for 80 minutes and then jog to the touchline to be subbed, that is pathetic when they walk it does my head in.
When this happens it always seems to be a player who is furthest from the dugout, so he takes an age to walk slowly off. All part of disrupting the other team's rhythm. And has anyone ever seen the 6-second rule enforced?
The Twitswich no 27 saw the board being prepared with his number on and ran 50 yards to the far touch line by the east stand Sao that he could be as far away as possible before his number went up. He obviously got a signal from the bench too. They all do it. I'd ban it but until they do......
I saw it once involving Bolton and Newcastle and that was because ALAN SHEARER!!!! was blocking the keeper's chance to kick it but the ref thought the keeper was wasting time so gave the free kick to Newcastle, but yeah it's never enforced
