Is it only when a goal is scored? There was talk about accidental hand ball going and any contact with the arm to be deemed handball.Which i thought would have been disastrous, for what its worth.
Not sure mate but I'm sure it is worth at least 10-15 pages of debate when it happens next season.
If it does, i wonder who the first team/player to deliberately kick the ball at another players arm will be..
Mo Salah.
Is var taking care of All these changes..If so we may as well go to 4 quarters the time it's going to take.
These are the new rules as I understand it.
1. No more rebound goals on penalties. If the goalie manages to punch the ball away or the ball hits the bar/posts the game stops.
2. Players that are subbed off can leave the field at any pitch line now. To prevent time wasting on subs.
3. No more attacking players in the wall during free kicks.
4. Coaches/managers will also be able to receive cards instead of just verbal warnings for their behavior on the sideline.
5. Goals scored by hand ball (intentional or not) will no longer stand.
All effective June 1st.

Changes 1 and 3 are fucking wank. I doubt a single fan has ever thought for a second that needed looking at. Review the handball law to get rid of the ridiculous "deliberate" wording by all means but there's nothing at all wrong with penalties
Wasn't that the rule years back, or is my memory playing tricks on me?
3. I can at least see the reason as attackers are pushing the wall out of the way / it causes bust ups but surely it is easier to enforce current rules rather than add new ones. Also if the wall is the furthest back and you need to be a meter away it give the defending players a meter start when going for rebounds.
It's always been the rule on penalty shoot-outs (rightly so) but not on penalties during the game. How do you restart the game, with a goal kick? Pick the ball up and put it in the goalie's hands?
Penalties have always been considered to be a direct free kick, you can pass if you really want to, as Messi did famously. If a free kick is parried the ball is obviously still in play...
not disagreeing with your general point but not quite - ball needs to be played forward
I thought it was Cruyff that famously did it.
...however, the most famous is surely the Terry Henry / Pires penalty...
You could as long as it was accidental - same as any handball - I have vague recollections of Portsmouth scoring one against us and the same season having one disallowed by Ade, both accidental. Its been changed completely now.
Surely it's more of a case that the referee just hadn't seen the handball as to why it was given? If not, that's a joke. Who's to say what's deliberate or not?
Seems to be the only rule change that makes sense.
No it is the rules, the ref is meant to decide if its deliberate in every handball attacking or not. In reality they were more harsh on Attackers scoring but a fair few have been given. Think Aguero vs Woolwich.
1. Stupid. Does the same apply to direct free-kicks?
2. Like it
3. Stupid.
4. Like it.
5. Stupid
Everywhere was reporting that rule change - that's terrible reporting.
