I know it isn't a 'rule' but the current perception that contact is a foul baffles me. The slightest touch in the penalty area is a foul but anywhere else on the pitch is OK. To me, a foul has to have some intent.
Going back to the original change mentioned in this thread, the back pass rule.
There was a direct link between this rule being introduced and the end of Liverpools footballing dominance. I remembered the constant, anti-football, Hansen to Grobbelaar time-wasting when they were 1-0 up. As soon as they were unable to rely on this tactic they went into footballing decline.
I like the back pass rule.
Killing football, shite support trying to drown out away days making noise... same to you mate.
Bloody nerve.
