#6 & #8 will bewilder some,,,, my dad still can't get around the changes made to offside about 10 years ago!

[BoomtownHibees]

Could be fun when players have to walk off at the nearest point of the pitch at a derby etc

[Hibernian32]

Like the quick free kick one can us using that alot with intelligent players like Mallan and Allan

[PaulSmith]

Rangers at home, we are a goal to the good. They have a succession of corners any everytime one is taken the fans throw tennis balls into the box..the game will always be restarted back safely in Rocky's hands.

There's also one now where the goal kick is simply chipped into a defenders head from a yard away, the GK catches the ball and then sprints to the edge of his penalty box to kick the ball from hand

[Carheenlea]

Shame to see that the drop-ball is effectively consigned to history. Was still pretty rare to see a properly contested drop ball in recent years but now they’re no more.
The quick free kick even if an offending player is to be booked could be an interesting change - seen a lot of such efforts to take quickly but called back by ref as he does his paperwork and issue a card.

This will be the rule that is almost always broken, our refs are so dumb they will stop play.

So is it a metre or a yard?
Us pedantics need to know

[jacomo]

12. Walls at free kicks
Attackers are not allowed to be within 1m (1yd) of a defensive wall of three or more. An offence from the attacker will result in an indirect free kick.


Now, correct me if I’m wrong, but is the game here to line up a 2 man wall, entice an opposing player to join it, then quickly make it a 3 man wall and steal the free kick?

I’m in shame. Went mental at the shed side 2nd half Lino when the left back scooped the shortie out the box under pressure. Sorry Lino. You Tory Hun ****.

It's a very interesting one. So it means a free kick can be taken as soon as it's given, like a throw in or a corner?

Wonder if this will just lead to teams kicking the ball away when a free kick is given against them so that it can't be taken quickly

If I remember correctly you can’t manipulate a ball so that it’s not a passback (ie chip the ball up to your own knee/head so that the keeper can pick it up, or intentionally chip it to your own player so he can play it back to you. Used to be the rule but not sure if that’s still in place)

Too late quite a few at Elgin fell foul of the one where the ball doesn't need to come out the box at a bye and from what I can hear the vast majority at ER don't understand you can take an offside free kick in either half depending on where the offence took place.

should also be an automatic yellow if you try to block the free kick from being taken quickly.

It already is, is it not? Just most refs allow it unless it's us who do it, or so it seems.

Have they come into force yet, the rules? I'm sure someone at E.R said it was only in the league / when the league started when folk were questioning the subs not leaving at nearest byline against alloa

The kick off always puzzles me at ER. We cant win all the tosses . How then do we always play up the slope first half. You would expect the other team to make play down the slope first half unless they want play towards their fans in the 2nd half.

I can foresee a few disasters with that trick.

Can't help thinking this will cause confusion sooner or later with linesmen at the opposite side of the pitch flagging for onside/offside involving players who've been substituted.

There are a few games where teams have turned us round from the traditional down the slope second half. I think it has just become convention to shoot towards your own fans second half but I'm surprised more teams don't try to upset the home team by changing the direction at kick off
