You're correct.

>>156676298
I didn’t know until today that’s literally how the time rules work. They LITERALLY just randomly determine how long the game will go

>>156676298
This is what it seems like

it WAS like this but now sometimes somebody makes a decision and then we have a "review" :)

One small fix that would immediately makes games better: red cards are just an ejection and suspension for next 1-2 games but the ongoing game you don’t go down 1 man; the ejected player is just replaced like in literally all other sports.

>>156676298
NFL rules change every season and nobody can say for sure what a "football move" is to determine if a catch has occurred. Stop pretending your sports are less random

>>156676298
>I honestly believe that soccer doesn't actually have any real rules and it's just refs giving out penalties whenever they feel like it
It's the same with all of Europe's governments.

>>156676755
football also sucks but red cards dont exist

How do they get away with just letting refs end the game whenever they want and arbitrarily keeping track of time in their head

You're describing hockey.

>>156676699
So you get a free substitution when you're out of subs

>>156677437
This world cup has the most accurate added time ever.

>>156677437
Right? Just stop the clock while the game isn't running. It's not that complicated.
And none of that "let the last move play out" bullshit. The second 45 minutes have been played, it's over.

>>156676298
so its the sporting equivalent of dungeons and dragons

>>156677572
No, don’t be difficult. You’d be penalized a sub

>>156677437
How else could they easily rig games?

>>156677648
This is why you lost. You don't understand the soul of football

>>156676298
same is true for basketball

You just don't understand the rules. Hockey, basketball, and american football are all significantly more retarded in their arbitrary application of the rules.

>>156677744
>soul just means it sucks
Once you realize this a lot of posts on this website make more sense.

>>156677840
That’s fine but there’s never a ref decision mid game that can take away an entire player for the rest of the game

>>156677873
give an nba player two quick fouls and they sit him for a quarter.

>>156677933
Good point

>tfw soccer referee
its tough to see people constantly criticize your job/hobby saying stuff like this :(

>>156677933
but you can put in a sub for him

>>156677744
I don't understand the soul of football. Our team, who was abusing the system to buy time, apparently does, so I don't think that was the problem.

I don't really understand when you're allowed to push someone over and when you're not allowed to over my time watching or when someone is knocked down after contact and the signal is given that it's a foul or to play-on.

>>156676298
>it's just refs giving out penalties whenever they feel like it
How is that any different from NHL NBA and NFL

>>156677437
ref clicks the stopclock on his wrist for specific bullshit like injuries and goal celebrations

>>156678140
its situational and the rules are basicly impossible to enforce in the current state of the game
thats why so many controversial decisions can happen
the game started as an almost no contact sport, the only thing allowed was shoulder to shoulder
none of these gay wrestling matches

>>156678173
Well in the NFL at least they stop the clock and each side has a chance to present opening and closing arguments and call witnesses and read evidence into the record before the referee makes a final decision.

>>156676610
No. Now Fifa uses it as a tool against unfavorable teams especially if it's advantage for Argentina.

>>156678252
Yeah it doesn't feel consistent at all to me, especially when apparently it's known that referees have different "styles of refereeing" so it's blatantly inconsistent and you could be shit on if you play a more physical style with someone who feels that way

>>156677840
Wrong

>>156677840
Thry actually tend to be a lot less arbitrary since the lack of an international aspect means less national loyalty contributing to a ref's decisions

>WUAAAAHHHH ITS RIGGED SHIT WUAAAH
It is truly the mark of a low IQ man to think that everything around him must be a conspiracy. ‘Pandemic fake, moon landing fake, elections fake, sports fake’’ on and on the retard goes projecting his ignorance on the world because he is too stupid to comprehend reality and that there must be a convenient explanation where he is also the victim. Sorry this ain’t the WWE or the bible, this is the real world. The fact is football has become less rigged than it ever was, this World Cup has had most if not all decision correct and anyone saying rigged is a recently discharged mentally ill patient.

>>156678541
I don't think it's rigged necessarily, I think refs are just given way too much free reign to do whatever they want

>>156678554
>refs can’t be trusted to follow the laws of the game
Hey dumb retard, literally every ref gets a performance review after each game. In no universe are they ‘given free rein’ they could lose their job if they keep fucking up. It’s so funny that we get shit for brains like you who on one hand say that technology is rigged and on the other say human refereeing is rigged. The problem is you being ignorant. Apply yourself retard.

>>156678820
So do you think every ref is perfect?

>>156678541
uhhh the plandemic WAS fake you faggot

>>156676298
I've referee'd over 500 matches and you're right, 90% of being a good ref is being confident and the dominant authority figure

>>156679172
what happens with that if you have var following your decisions

>>156678965
No, but you think every ref or decision should be perfect. The world isn’t discretely mechanistic, it is fluid and there are obviously grey areas which is why even with technology to reduce doubt it is still up to the judgment of a seasoned expert. One man’s foul is another man’s dive. Grow a brain moron.

>>156678820
>literally every ref gets a performance review after each game.
>”we’ve investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong”

The only thing worse than conspiratards are simpletons who get bamboozled by a little PR and a little theater.

Whatever happened to that god damn ball sensor?

>>156679525
But I believe the refs in soccer are given too large of a grey area

>>156677648
>>156677744

The leaf's post is why soccer doesn't implement basic shit, cause it's a sport run by mouthbreathers who think that any change to the game, even in a positive direction = destroying its 'soul'
