"If an attacker is standing within one yard (1m) of the wall when the kick is taken, they will be penalised with an indirect free-kick."
So just get someone to enter the wall at the last moment making an opposition player within 1 m and you get the free kick moved forward? Odd.
'Substitutions
A player who is being substituted must leave the pitch by the nearest point on the touchline or byeline - unless the referee says he can leave quickly at the halfway line - or elsewhere for safety or injury reasons.
This change is to stop players time-wasting. Any player who "infringes the spirit of this law" will be booked for unsporting behaviour'
About time too.
Just so long as:-
"Lino lino the balls not in the quadrant"
"Lino can't you see the ball's not in the quadrant"
"Lino do you know the rules, the ball's not in the quadrant"
A part of the ball is always breaking the plane of the 3 pointed quadrant.
Then all will be right in the world, or my little block.
No new rule will ever take the place of 'quadrant abuse'.
No change on the diving law is a complete cop out.
I was hoping for something like this.
(If a player deliberately dives to gain an advantage this will now result in a straight red card.)
Why on earth this hasn't been looked at is beyond me, diving would stop pretty quickly if refs dished a red instead of a yellow, I can only assume the powers that be are quite happy to watch serial cheating every week.
The problem with that is that the refs often get it wrong the other way. Bad enough not being given what was a clear-cut penalty but getting a player sent off as well.
With VAR it's absolutely enforceable surely, I mean the whole point of VAR is to right possible wrongs so it was a perfect opportunity to stamp this ugly part of modern day football out once and for all.

How long will it be before a goal is given offside because the linesman has seen a player on the other side of the field? It's why subs warming up wear bibs.
Can you imagine Birmingham v Villa and Grealish having to walk around half the pitch in front of the Blues fans!

No, the free kick would go to the other team. The kick would not go forward under any circumstances.
