What changes would you make? I'm talking dictator, top down control to do what you like. For me it'd be:
1. Swap football to the Summer. It's only played in the Winter now because people needed something to do when there was no Cricket (everyone else copied the English). A Feb - October season would be great. Most of the season played in warm weather.
2. Champions league should only be for Champions. Have a lesser competition for teams finishing in lower places. Reintroduce the Cup Winners Cup.
3. Remove FFP, but have a Global salary cap which affects teams rather than players. For example, Erling Haaland can be paid £500k per week, but Citeh's total wage bill can't exceed £200m. It'll be a nice battle between total squad strength and keeping star players on board. and should reintroduce a bit more competition.
4. (Might catch pelters for this one) End International football. Give it ten years and nobody would care that countries don't play each other any more. Maybe then a club World Cup would be worthwhile. Plus it would render FIFA completely pointless and that could never be a bad thing. |  |

PSR would have to go. Man Utd have announced that they are close to breaching the PSR rules with a £300m loss. The result is that they are going to have to raise ticket prices again.
Apparently the current price of a ticket is £66 with no concession for kids. That means a family of 4 would cost £264 for 1 game!!
They couldn't pay me to watch United, buy if that is the cost of watching a game then football isn't going to last much longer.
These PSR rules are doing more damage than good |
They're doing that because they're spectacularly badly run.
They paid over £80 million for Antony & they're paying over £300K a week to Rashford & Casemiro.
Upping ticket prices is a p1ss in the ocean in comparison. [Post edited 24 Jan 15:11]

They made 250 people redundant recently. That would barely cover Antonys wages.
Football is in a total mess when 250 families have to lose their livelihood so that a bang average 20 something can Swan around in a Ferrari. | | | |

Give teams an incentive to give the local products a real chance.
Maybe play x games get £xx,000 extra funding.
Its hard for an 18 year old to be better than an experienced 27 year old, so talent waste is too high.
Ban TeamGB.
Ban all seeding at international level. Stop giving easy groups to the big boys.
Remove the 1966 World Cup win from England cos ball was not over the line. Only fair now we live in a VAR world. |
Big boys aren't given easy groups, Their seedlings go on past performance |  |

Knocking England out of the world cup with a brace secures his place in latino football culture.
Pele and Maradona were the top two in most peoples opinion, albeit Messi and Ronaldo have a shout more recently.
He did not play in England so some dont understand how good he was.
There certainly are not many players as good as the great Maradona.
And Maradona was clearly better than any player England has ever produced. Fact. |
I'm not sure the latino football culture cares as much about that as you seem to. This thread is about what rules you;d bring in, its not a chance to show your anti English sentiments.
Sin bins, I'd have sin bins.
Independent time keeping like in rugby league. | | | |

For me:
1) Keepers that time waste when holding the ball - award a corner to the attacking side.
2) Players trying to gain an unfair advantage by not taking a throw-in from the correct spot, i.e. running yards up the pitch from where the ball went out. Change the rules so it's a corner to the opposition if you infringe in your own half. If you infringe in your opponent's half. they are awarded a goal kick. I get fed up seeing yards gained by players persistently trying to run past where the throw-in was awarded.
3) Premier League & Championship Clubs should name an 18-man "FA Cup squad" and only be allowed to select from those players in that tournament. So then it's up to them whether they want to take the competition seriously.
4) Premier League Clubs - limit the total value of the XI on the pitch at any one time. So let's say for example, the maximum value of the players is £750 million. But this limit would only to apply to players bought by the club: there would be no limit on their own home-grown players, so they can have as many of these on the pitch as they want. This would encourage clubs to develop and blood their own talent, but limit the super wealthy sides from just being able to put out on a team of mega stars each week. Also, it would make substitutions more tactical. | | | |

Point 4, inflation would soon take care of that 750 million so how do you value the players?
Just recently, Erling Haaland, what price do you think Man City would want to get him out of that new contract? He is listed at 155 million, I reckon it'll take north of 250 million to get him now. So who sets the value of players for the purpose of your point?
Though I do agree that some way needs to be found to limit the power play spending. Not just in the UK either. | | | |

The 750 million figure was only an example, just for me to to show the workings of the scheme. It would have to be set by the League at the start of each season, taking things like inflation into account.
If City sold Haaland to another club for 250 million, it would then be a matter for the receiving club to work out how to play him in combination with other players they might have purchased. But the value of the players wouldn't be set by anybody, much as it is now.
I think it would help to turn the heat down in terms of costs, and prevent clubs from over-reaching whilst encouraging their own talent. No doubts they'd have whizz-kid legal and financial experts working out how to find way around it, but for me it would be step in the right direction. | | | |

Something like it needs to happen for sure.
I'm not sure anything will stop clubs over reaching though, it's a strange kind of greed that sees them always want more but try to get it by spending ridiculous amounts.

Well I'll let the thread starter decide that...is it about changing things that happened or did you mean rule changes? If I'm wrong I shall apologise to Kilkenny.
Yet again you fail to comprehend, I didn't mean they don't idolise Maradona, I meant they didn't care so much about beating England, there are countries closer to home the Argentines have much more competition with. | | | |

Well then you’d also support ruling his ‘goal’ against England in ‘86 because he punched it into the net.
Don’t then say he scored a magnificent goal after that because the game may have been very different after that.
After all, it’s only fair! |  |
