 8 Second Goalie Rule.
Topic Originator: GG Riva  
Date:   Sun 17 Aug 11:12

I saw Martin Dubravka was punished for holding onto the ball for more than 8s, with a corner to Spurs on MOTD. Is this being trialled only in English football, or also elsewhere?

Totally unrelated, but Wayne Rooney as a pundit? It`s hard enough to make out what he`s saying half the time, and when I do, I wish I hadn`t made the effort. 🙄

I was wondering the same thing, GG. I also completely agree with you re Wayne Rooney!

It’s a rule change for this season. Keep an eye on the ref at goal kicks, he keeps his hand in the air and counts down from 5 on his fingers for the goalies to see. The ref was doing it during our game against Airdrie.

Yeah, I think especially early in the season referees will be looking out for it. I like the rule change to be honest, forces teams to get the ball back in play quicker. I`ve definitely counted times before where keepers have held the ball for well over 20-25 seconds without penalty

It’s done through grassroots as well.

Yes, it was noticeable at East Kilbride with it being a smaller venue and you could hear the ref (Sean Murdoch) doing the countdown.

Just gives the fud at the back of the Norrie more to dribble in about. Does the pie stand sell aspirin?

The ref was constantly counting down at our game with Airdrie.

Yes, it is a positive change, although the rule did exist before with 6 seconds, except that it was never applied. There seems to be a stricter approach with time wasting in general which is good to see. I find it especially annoying when players are allowed to kick the ball away (even a little bit) after their team has conceded a free-kick.

A goal for Crystal Palace was disallowed by VAR at Chelsea this afternoon by the application of a little-known rule.

Referee Darren England made an announcement to the crowd to explain the decision. He said: "After review, away number six is less than one metre away from the wall as the shot is taken. Therefore, it`s an indirect free-kick and a disallowed goal."

The International Football Association Board`s Law 13 states that when three or more defending team players form a wall, all attacking players must remain at least one metre from the wall until the ball is in play. This rule was introduced to the laws of the game in 2019-20.

I coach a 2011 team and the ref was using it in our game last weekend.
