Unbelievable response from efl regarding 6 second GK Law

whilst I am aware that Krull is an expert at this, I would wish to see it stamped out at all games, so sent an email to EFL.

this is the response I recived
Thank you for your e-mail.

Having liaised with the Referees’ Manager in relation to the 6 second rule, we would advise that officials manage this area of the game at their discretion, taking action when infringements become very apparent and/or persistent. There has to be some degree of flexibility and understanding from officials, and in turn, players themselves, in relation to ongoing management of any perceived ‘time-wasting’.

Referees can of course take action by speaking to or cautioning the goalkeeper, as well as adding time allowed at the end of 90minutes.

We hope that this outlines the procedures in place relating to this particular rule.

Thank you for contacting the EFL.

Kindest regards,

Niamh
