It’s was 30 something minutes. Even funnier that we ran out 3-1 winner. They got what they deserved.I'm sure the Motherwell was less than one half long that the ball was in play. Still no punishment from or for the ref as it was against Rangers.
Yes.Thought this would make for decent discussion.
Should we take the responsibility of time keeping out of the hands of the referee?
With all the time wasting that went on with the ball boys and the ball in the crowd would it be an idea to have a time keeper who stopped the clock when the ball isn’t in play. Stop the clock when making substitutes etc and ensure that the 90mins are played on the pitch. You would be able to see the clock in the stadium and you would know a definite end time which may help increase the tension and drama a bit as it counts down to final whistle
Would make time wasting pointless and needlessly long physio breaks
yes, have an official timekeeper in the stand.Thought this would make for decent discussion.

There's also the problem of how to stop teams disrupting the flow of the game deliberately, but dealing with the timekeeping issue would be a great first step.Thought this would make for decent discussion.
