If players know that deliberately stopping a free kick being taken quickly will get you booked then they have no right to complain.  Players not getting booked for fouls is a separate issue and should not be used to defend what is a deliberate attempt to gain an unfair advantage

Quoted from mimma
I have been saying for a long time,the best solution is for the clock to stop when the ref signals for an injury and it restarts when the ball is back in play. It works very well in rugby, no need to reinvent the wheel, just copy rugby. The ball has to go out of play to end the game, simple.

Totally agree with this, I would give the ref the ability to stop the match clock and get rid of injury time. Only problem is about 30 minutes of the 90 is wasted on average, so it would have to be used sparingly.

heavens forbid we actually get 90 minutes playing time!

Once the penny has dropped, then it will only be genuine injuries that stop play since players won't gain anything from stopping play.

.

Wish refs would clamp down on players stopping free kick from been taken quickly. How many times do you see players deliberately stand in front of the ball to stop kicks been taken quickly.  They actually gave the refs instructions to book players for it and it worked well, but it died a death. They soon retreat when cards get flashed.[/quote]

Happened against Leyton Orient.  McAtee tried to push him away.  He returned and tried the kick the ball out of his hands. .  Ref did sweet FA
