Making the game a bit more exciting when the ball is in play would be far better than this messing about with playing time. Sometimes the opposition keeper time wasting gets more crowd reaction than tthe game itself. Its not the ball being out of play and the lack of speed in taking set pieces that will eventually pee me off with watching the game but the game itself and the posession for posessions sake football we now see on a weekly basis.

Just another stupid old git coming out with stuff that ceased to be even slightly humouress twelve months after someone first said it. Society has never wanted people of his ilk now or at any other time of our history.

The best thing would be giving it a seasons trial in the glue league or the southern version of it. With smaller grounds and less balls around for the multi ball thing, if it worked there it would in the league. Ben Tozer is going to love the multi ball system, no need for a towel if you can just swap it for a dry one! I watch a lot of ice hockey and the clock is stopped at every whistle. It does stop time wasting and means that any player receiving treatment is 99% of the time genuinely injured. (odd exception if its "icing" and the defending team are trying to get extra time to catch their breath before the restart). The biggest issue this year is the consistency between officials of how strict they are with the added time. Also, if you're having 12 minutes added on, there will definitely be added time to added time and everyone will lose track of how long is left. The biggest bugbear for me is the time keepers take to release the ball after catching it, the six second rule is never applied and I'd like to see it enforced much more strictly. I've seen keepers take over 30 seconds to get the ball back in play and the best the ref does is wave his arm furiously. Ice Hockey also gives assists to 2nd assisters, which is something I'd be in favour of football tracking in some capacity.

Floodlights halfway down the pitch is just wrong and an offence to the universe. #justsaying

Crawley banning a supporter for life after they reposted a picture of their yet to be revealed kit, that one of their own players had already posted online. is one of the most Vanarama things I’ve ever seen outside of the Vanarama.

James norward won't be joining Wrexham.
He's dropping down another level as he's been spotted wearing a Oldham shirt

Cracking signing for Oldham, with Chesterfield and Oldham favourites for promotion, the NL does look a lot weaker than previous years.
It's a difficult one for me, although both are traditional league clubs with strong fanbases (and much more palatable than FGR, Crawley, MK Dons) I still feel they haven't served their time in purgatory. We had 11 years out of the FL, and over half of that time in NLN, 2 seasons for Oldham seems tame!.

Oldham have suffered enough, but maybe a playoff final defeat this time round, then they can come back after that. Seems fair to me.
