Default Time wasting from the start ?!

Whats with all these teams that start time wasting from the first minute of the game?

It just so stupid to see a gk take more than 10 seconds to take a goalkick or a players thowing in the ball after more or less than 20 seconds. IRL you get yellow cards for these kind of lame actions. You dont see teams do this from the start!! Ofcourse a minor team use timewasting tactics but not like this and most certainly not from the first kick-off.

They should at least get some yellow cards for these kind of tactics, it removes a lot of fun from the game and makes it really borring to watch the 2d action.

the whole time wasting thing is a joke, as you say some teams adopt the tactic from the start and if you want to start wasting time near the end of the game you might end up waiting 2 game minutes for the tactics option to be enabled and implemented.

by which time its probably too late.


A good idea poorly implemented.

If the SWFC v Colchester game was anything to go by, timewasting is never punished. Colchester scored in the first minute and their keeper would take a long time with the ball before kicking it. It didn't get punished once, although the ref was a complete tool.

If really wish they implement getting yellow cards from time wasting.

I like the idea of wingers run to corner flag and stay there but not keeper taking more than 1 min to take his goal kick and not getting yellow card.
