Trav Le Bleu Posted 27 July 2016 Posted 27 July 2016 Quote As seen at Euro 2016, the ball no longer has to go forward at kick-off. The previous law stated the ball had to go into the opposition half at the restart, but it has been changed to allow it to move in any direction, as long as it "clearly moves". This change has paved the way for one-man kick-offs, as seen at Euro 2016. I'd love to see the game where the ball stays stationary from kick-off! Who writes this stuff? Quote Among several minor changes to the laws regarding penalties, potentially the most interesting is the amendment to yellow card a penalty taker who "illegally feints" once his run-up is complete. This means slowing to a stop immediately before shooting is not allowed, with a yellow card and an indirect free-kick to the opposition the result. The law does stress feinting during a run-up is still permitted That's just confusing... define complete and during - I'd define complete as when the toe strikes the ball... by which time this rule is too late.
m4DD0gg Posted 27 July 2016 Posted 27 July 2016 Rule 12 in that list will depend on who you play for. Cant see rooney being dismissed for effin at the Ref.
Fox92 Posted 27 July 2016 Posted 27 July 2016 I swear they want to take everything out of the game. Rule 2, for example, getting sent off in the tunnel. What the hell. I like to see players getting up for it pre match. Keane and Vieira wouldn't have even started whenever Arsenal played Manchester United.
Dan Posted 27 July 2016 Posted 27 July 2016 Football is obsessed with grey areas and rules that the referee can dictate without reprieve. It does no-one any favours.

This amendment is part of a renewed emphasis on what constitutes sporting behaviour "within the spirit of the game". the thing that got me was Change 9 A couple of minor clarifications to the offside rule. The law now states the halfway line is neutral, meaning a player must have part of the body (excluding arms or hands) in the opponents' half to be flagged offside. i always thought that was the ruling anyway that you couldn't be offside in your own half i can't see this going down well if this ever happened To address what was threatening to become a growing trend, the law has been changed so that if play is stopped due to interference from a team official or substitute, rather than the award of an indirect free-kick or drop ball, the referee will now award a free-kick or penalty kick to the opposition.

And always thought any part of your body in the opposition half meant you're offside (excl arms/hands).

The interesting bit from that rule is that doing so means the ref awards a free kick to the other team! Surely if you're booking the player, getting him to take it again is enough?
