A game last night one of our player taking a corner, placed the ball outside the circle, the ref. said nothing, a couple of minutes later he done the same thing and the ref. booked him, do not think that is a bookable offence.
If the corner kick had not been taken, he can change his decision. if the corner kick was taken, he can't changes his decision. Although we had a referee, the ball went into our net but went out of the goal through a hole in the net, quick thinking by our keeper got the ball and kicked it out, we went up and scored, the opposition questioned the ref. about the goal they had scored. The ref. disallowed our goal and allowed the other goal, the original goal was a goal but once the ball was kicked out and allowed to continue he could not bring the game back and allowed the first goal.

Is their a referee on here any more, what is your view on the first Barcelona. penalty tonight
Someone said to me recently that the six second rule for keepers is gone, is that true
Still there, anything over that is considered time wasting. It's meant to keep the game flowing, it's why kicking the ball away is delaying the restart of a game and time wasting. Delaying the restart of a free kick by standing over the ball, time wasting - Yellow Card. Keeper controlling the ball with his hands a second time - parries the ball down to his feet, waits for an attacker to challenge for the ball and picks it up and then waits another 6 seconds to deliver it out - unfair advantage to the keeper and time wasting.

Yeah was wondering about holding the ball, it's at the refs discretion I've been told. But it still rattles some keepers to kick quick and give bad balls when fellas start shouting out 1 2 3 4 ..... just wondering if it's still a thing cause I've never seen a ref in recent years give a free for it outside of mingolet as round tower said
I think more refs would look at the time wasting by the keeper when he is gone to retrieve the ball when it goes wide and is just strolling along on his way back and then thinks he is practising his Johnny Sexton method of placing the ball for the kick out and he is not satisfied and goes to place it again. I see most opponents pointing to that time wasting to the ref, than a kick out from a ball in play scenario. I have seen refs in local play, and on the telly, give a keeper a Yellow Card for the goal kick time wasting.
The law does state " controls the ball with the hands for more than six seconds before releasing it".
What do you think of the new "sin bin" rule for the coming season? 10 mins for a Yellow Card.
