New Football Rules from next season

You are talking to Devonshire there.

And, yes, as suspected you are trying to define why the penalty box exists but, as said, it is a simple definition that makes the rest of your comment look clumsy and hard to follow.
We all know why the penalty box is there, but that doesn't justify your reasoning for no penalty rebounds.

Accepting that it is just the keepers area (by the way, is the 6 yard box just there to place the ball at GKs...i see little other purpose, seems pointless!) then if normal rules followed you could have a foul 2 yards out, how then is that scenario allowed for, it would be chaos. SO its just a blanket penalty in the keepers area to avoid the chaos. It is also logical that it is a dangerous area of the pitch and therefore a stricter punishment should be applied otherwise the fouling in this dangerous part would become very cynical.

No DJ, I'm defining why all fouls in the box are punished the more harsh penalty. The box is there to define the area in which a foul becomes considered to be obstructing a goal. Albeit, despite many fouls not doing so. Basically because they had to put a line somewhere.

As I said its a very generalised ideal but the overarching spirit behind it is "fouls in box obstruct goal attempts" hence any foul in there is a penalty.

If true, that first one is long, long, overdue.

In a sport that requires a range of skills combining fitness, strength, balance, coordination, athleticism and control of both mind and body etc., - and in a sport that specifically requires only ball control by the foot/feet and NOT hands (there is a clue in the name of the sport) then not getting ones hand out of the way should be penalised.

And subjectivity has no place in pure sport.

This idea of 'deliberate' and 'accidental' - or the even greater nonsense that is labelled "ball to hand" - in relation to this are ridiculous.

And before some pseudo wise-ass suggests some of the more skillful players will take advantage of that by deliberately directing the ball to an opponent's hand. So what. It's a skill in a game of skills.

Some websites including Marca + Sky reporting that IFAB has changed penalty law so that play stops if it is saved or hits post. Not true - that idea was dropped in November.

This one isn't happening apparently just the other 4

Am I missing something ?
Whats the point of the new rule re no rebounds from penalties, if refs do their job properly then there should be any encroachment etc. Appreciate that they do this on penalty shoot outs , but rebounds from penalty saves or hitting posts are a big part of the excitement of football

2. No rebounds from penalties

Arguably the worst-enforced rule. Encroachments by both teams invariably happen every time a pen is taken. Good riddance.

Seems a bit weird the attacking players in the wall thing..

What if a team has 2 players sent off or they're chasing the game and they're not allowed to have attacking players in the wall

You joker

No attacking players in the wall is a great idea, will eliminate a lot of pushing and shoving with the inevitable stopping of play by the official in charge. This should speed up the game.

How about eliminating the 2 yellow card rule with the offending team playing a player short for 15-20 mins.?
