Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying? If the injury is genuine, they will spend an average of 30 seconds or so stretching out, checking them over, spraying deep heat/freeze etc anyway. If its a genuine injury, there's no difference with this rule. Genuine injuries don't come straight back on to the field if medical staff are required.

If a player is feigning injury to time waste and disrupt the flow of the game then they should spend the same amount of time off the field. It stops players from doing it. Why should a team be penalised by the other team breaking up play when they arent actually injured.

Edit - you are aware the 30 seconds is only a thing if the medical team enter the pitch right? This isn't for someone who has a spot of cramp or goes down for a few seconds

The point I’m making is that some stoppages are for gebuine but minor injuries, are precautionary, and they don’t need 30 seconds on the touch line.

Obviously if they are fake, the 30 secs might be a bit of a deterrent. But if they are genuine minor or passing things, the innocent team gets punished because of the possibility they may have been cheating, without any evidence that they were.

It’s another example of assuming the worst, which is a bad principle, and introducing yet another rule that disrupts play.

Our starting eleven is almost a new team. The only regular starters from last year are Romero, Deki and Sonny. Some job by Ange and the coaches to get them playing such brilliant football.
we need to stick with Richy. You can see his confidence is shot . One goal will get him started .
Ange does us his subs a lot.apparently did that at Celtic as well. Keeps players involved.

One downside was Yesterday’s director; number of times the camera zoomed in on Ange, Bournemouth’s bench and even the crowd at times when play was going on. Frustrates the hell out of me.
They do these shots to allow editing of the game into highlights.

I enjoyed this video for the most part. It's just a bloke standing outside the ground with a mic getting fan reactions - he clearly knew a lot of them but there were no personalities, no catchphrases, just (mostly) praise for us and good/insightful/honest analysis of the match.


It's a pity they didn't get a bit more of Maddison's hijinks on that corner but I do like this fan channel, they seem to be much more level-headed and complimentary about the opposition when it's warranted.

That’s just SO Bournemouth. Nice, sensible, decent people who seem to be just enjoying being part of it all.

Refreshing to see that there are some genuine fan channels, not influenced by the X and YouTube toxicity for interactions
