That's not how time added works.

I'm pretty sure I alluded to the fact that injuries treated on the pitch contributed to added time, and once an injured player is removed from the pitch for further treatment, added time is no longer accruing(at least not for a crampy leg).

I was fairly "refreshed" when I got home from the game, so maybe my prose wasn't as eloquent as it normally is, and my point became muddied.


How referees calculate stoppage time​

Stoppage time, also called added time or injury time, is the period added to the end of each half to compensate for time lost during play. The referee is responsible for tracking that lost time throughout the half and communicating the total to the fourth official, who displays it on the board as the 45 or 90 minute mark approaches.



The events that contribute to stoppage time are clearly defined. Substitutions, injuries and the time taken to treat or remove players from the pitch, goal celebrations, VAR checks, disciplinary stoppages, and any other delays to play all count towards the total. The referee tracks each stoppage, adds them up, and the fourth official's board reflects that figure.



The number on the board is a minimum, not a fixed endpoint. If further stoppages occur during added time itself, the referee can play beyond the indicated figure. A penalty awarded in the 93rd minute of a match with three minutes indicated will be taken and completed before the whistle goes, regardless of how long it takes.

From the 2024/25 season, the Premier League introduced a 30-second rule following each goal. Referees now allow a standard 30 seconds for teams to reposition after a goal before adding any additional time for celebrations or VAR checks on top of that. The aim was to reduce overall match length, which had crept up to an average of over 101 minutes in

Probably got the results of the scan and his head has gone so he removed all his posts, wouldn't surprise me if it's another ACL

It’s a shocker .

Premier League players are turning into F1 cars ; tuned and trained to perfection but the margins for error are so tight . Their bodies get maxed out and therefore are brittle.

Add time-load / repetition into the equation and things get even worse .

Bodies simply weren’t designed for this sort of thing ..

You see it in all elite sports these days .

But elite football ( and especially the EPL) is the worst imo . It’s the downside of
“ sports science “ when you think about it .

It’s literally not natural .

We are beyond jinxed. I don't think anyone can really doubt it.

Quite past the point of being in question.

Nothing can explain it other than karma if people belief in such stuff or the most perverse bad luck any team can have im respect of their key players.

Mind blowing.

I'm just sick of it.
