60 Min Games?

http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/40311889

Not sure what leagues get impacted if this goes through. But would be huge if it does. One thing I'd hope happens if they do make 60 Min games is to stop clock during breaks in play like ball went out, goal scored, free kick and so on.

Re: 60 Min Games?

i don't think it would be a bad change. probably would allow the players to play a bit more aggressive being that they would have to conserve their stamina a bit less.

personally, i would rather see substitutions changed. either let there be 3 subs per half or let subbed out players return to pitch, essentially giving them a breather.

I think I would be for the 60 minute clock with time stopping for stoppages.

I know in college soccer, they are allowed limited substitutions, but players who are subbed off are allowed one re-entry, provided it occurs in the second half.

Re: 60 Min Games?

File the time thing under "if it ain't broke don't fix it" for me.

Same thing with subs unless you're talking about making some kind of change so players can be properly checked when they have a head injury.

The beautiful game is turning into the artificial game. Please stop messing with traditions!

No. Just no. There is nothing wrong with it.

Re: 60 Min Games?

That would be like changing nine inning baseball games to six innings.

Who comes up with these ideas?

The only change I support is the one about not blowing the final whistle as long as the ball is in play.
