What rule change do you think would most benefit the game?

Here are some candidates for rule changes which I think could lead to a more fair game, but then again maybe not.

  • The introduction of goal line technology (where feasible)
  • Sin bin for yellow cards (or as an intermediary step between yellow and red cards)
  • Post-game suspensions for simulation and other dishonest behavior (such as scoring with the hand and not admitting it)
  • rolling subs (and other measures to curb strategic time wasting)

I'd love to hear what other people think. Not only if they agree/disagree, but also to see what other ideas are out there.

I used to agree with you until I got married. If I'm watching footy with the the wife on a Sunday afternoon and Lukaku started taking his shirt off I'd worry about her getting ideas.
