New rule being trialled in Premier League 2, if a goalkeeper has hold of the ball for 8 seconds then a corner is awarded to the opposition.

Should be a lot of penalty action then with corners.

Didn’t think refs could count to eight?

Why 8? Do people actually sit around tables discussing this and then come up with 8? Also people count at different speeds, how can they possibly enforce this.

Maybe VAR could assist. Then in the interests of sportsmanship, deduct 4-5 seconds if one of the top 6 clubs, and add 4-5 seconds for all other clubs.

I’m willing to give it some time if it does what it’s designed to do and stop time wasting. He’ll have to drop the ball and then we will see who the organised pressers are.

I would simply just stop watching football altogether forever if they continue to fook about with the game anymore.

Well with pickford in our goal we will be facing 100 corners a game lol.

Wasn’t there a 6 second rule at one stage that didn’t really do much. Not sure why 8 is the new number. If a keeper is taking the mick, let the ref just talk to them and book them second time. Strange why people mess about with changing stuff like this when there are more pressing issues that corps be sorted (like VAR)

It remember a 3 step rule but not a 6 second one.
