If it's being used in those competitions then it should be used across the European leagues.

Can't start having different rules for certain competitions, stupid.

We’ve got different rules for different clubs in our own league…

:agree:

I actually don’t love the idea of the rule as much as a lot of other folk seem to. If it’s being implemented in European competitions though then we should adopt it here.

What about it are you not keen on?

In all my years watching football, I've never seen a ref change a decision because they are surrounded by players. However, I think referees can be heavily influenced about future decisions they make if they have been surrounded.

about damn time, i've harped on about this for years it's cringe watching a gang surrounding a referee, rugby has done this for as long as i can remember, the players are well aware any backchat and the ref can move them back 10 yards.

Fergie wouldn't have been happy with this when he was a boss.
