Five simple ways to improve the game in the field - and one of them is someone to tell time

As rugby fans wake up early every morning to catch the World Cup always seems odd that professional footballers up and down the country are relatively rare in the game. Most players I've met over the last 20 years in the industry does not follow rugby, and although I can not say that my knowledge of rugby is about everything in depth, there are many Football can learn from its egg-shaped cousins.

Although football has always been my first love inspired me to play rugby at school my grandfather, who played fly-half for Wasps. It also meant leaving cello lessons - it was an advantage because they have a cello in the school was not cool. See the World Cup made me think of how football can benefit from some changes in the rules - inspired by rugby. Therefore, if granted five wishes to change the beautiful game that is how it would look:

1. Substitutions flexible

has always bothered me that a manager can introduce three amendments, the loss of a player to injury and will be punished by the rules, to finish with 10 men for the rest of the game. Worse, if the team lost a goalie. I want to see the introduction of flexible substitutions when injured players can always be replaced on the bench - regardless of the replacement of many were used. It may seem a bit radical, but not the spirit to see a specialized game that can be caused by short periods of time. You could hold the title of specialist traders and shooters kick like David Beckham -. Execution and then run after the ball is out of the game

2. Make significant yellow cards

is a huge failure that the player who has a habit of collecting yellow cards - but manage to avoid deportation - is not the appropriate penalty in the game that were recorded in the first place . Why, for example, someone unfairly Osasuna Real Madrid can prevent a goal, and yet it is five games and five yellow cards later - against Barcelona, ??for example - the player is punished? Why should Barcelona, ??enjoy the misfortune of Osasuna? However, soccer could become much more just by entering a rugby-style sin-bin - the offense in the day in favor of those sin against the first place. This would help the referees, too - reducing the huge gap between the consequences of the issuance of a red and a yellow card, decisions often complain about the players and fans

3. Technology of the goal line
