Them there noo rules.... doesn’t this one essentially bring back the possibility of

Liverpooling a game right off? (80s Liverpool, not the current lot).

“There is also a fresh tweak for keepers, who can now handle the ball in their area if they have unsuccessfully kicked or tried to kick the ball after a pass or throw-in.”

I mean who judges whether a kick or attempt to kick is unsuccessful? Doesn’t that just mean Tim could do a bit of a Oscar winning swing at a back pass (from day the half way line) and then pick it up, thereby wasting even more time than before the back pass rule?

It’s probably a good rule for us though.
