Anyone read them? Bigger World Cup, original offside rule, potential for sin bins etc. and more punishment for referee abuse.

No, got a link or something? Don't like the idea of the sin bin. Name is gay and it's far too rugby.

I like the idea of a sin bin, as long as it actually is a sin bin, so any player guilty of lying, false prophecy, adultery or murder, for example, is literally put in a bin.

Name is gay and it's far too rugby. could be worse they could call it a time out or naughty step. the sin bin will never work in footy but I still think he could be the guy to shake up the dodgy fuckers at FIFA house. Hope ole sepp gets shipped out to the old folks home and is heavily sedated so we never hear from the corrupt bastard again.

We need a Football man in charge. Not some ancient fossil looking to make a few quid. I can imagine Figo getting a big backing from a lot of European nations.

It will be interesting to see what the other candidates proposals are. You'd have to say if Sepp wins it this year then there is really no hope in Football.

Good luck to Figo, seems like a smart fella and I'd love to see him in charge

link from the BBCYes to sin bins especially for swearing, lipping the ref, diving and being an Arsenal player. Offside, hmm, maybe a bit radical but why have offside unless closer to the defending penalty area. Bigger World Cup, definitely. I can here Arsene crying already. But best of all BLATTER OUT

Anything's got to be better than a rule under that fat old corrupt cunt. I actually like these ideas so it's a win win.

The bigger World Cup plan refers to more teams from outside Europe, so is definitely a play for global support for his bid.
I hope he wins - a world class ex-footballer who comes across as an intelligent man, a force for change trying to shake up FIFA or an old bureaucratic dictator feathering his nest and that of his odious cronies who has been dragging the name of football through the mud for years? Not a tough choice!!

A 48 team World Cup? No thanks. His plan is for two 24 team tournaments at two different venues, with a certain number (16?) qualifying for the final knockout stages. It could work. |

As far as i am concerned Figo could have plans to play matches on the moon, it would still be btter than having Blatter in charge!  Seriously, if any countries vote to keep Blatter then they get what they deserve and football is finished!  |

That is one enormous bin, but I second your excellent idea. The bin should in addition accommodate any player who: - has a tattoo - wears an alice band - with hair gel (Bryl-Cream excepted) - has a flashy car - brings his kids and/or extended family on to the pitch at the end of the last match of the season - alights from the team bus wearing big earphones - kisses a badge (unless they are a lifelong supporter) - brings out an autobiography with an awful unfunny title (for example, Raheem S's might be "a Sterling Effort"; Joe H's might be "Hart of Gold" - and so on). |

I'd love to see some harsher punishment for abusing referees I hate to see players gobbing off at them. Fair enough they get a lot of shit wrong but it still it undermines the refs authority.
On a side note did anybody watch the PSG v Chelsea game and notice that in the first half PSG had a ferric and the ref bought out the spray for where the freekick is supposed to be taken. Zlatan was talking to Luiz about it and Luiz wiped the spray away and moved the ball to a different angle. What was that about? I'm assuming that's within the laws?

God fucking help us
Ithe other three candidates seem decent enough and if figo or the Jordanian prince win it could scupper those plans.
Anyone but septic blatter please

Oh yes, I was thinking it needs to be the size of a wheelie bin at least. What about players who take selfies in the dressing room or on the team bus? That would be one surefire way of ensuring Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain would stop getting injured. He'd be forever in a wheelie bin with Per Mertesacker, waiting for Islington Council to come and collect them. |

I had read his plan, I still don't like it. if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Like the Euros, it just makes it easier for the bigger teams to qualify, poorer sides now qualify, and its only to get the support of smaller nations. Fifa may like it however, more £££ |

OK, tin hat on.
Personally, I'm undecided on sin bins. For me it would depend on how it was implemented. Perhaps a two/three step process like
Yellow Card-->10 minute dismissal-->Red Card
Three steps for non-violent offences (dissent, time wasting, professional foul) with violence or dangerous play counting as at least two steps. If that makes sense
As for reverting the offside rule. Put me in the camp of definitely no. I don't tune in on Saturdays to watch strikers ply their "staying onside" skills. We need less stoppages for offside, not more (as long as it doesn't fundamentally change the game). I've mentioned before that I think the offside rule should be abandoned once an attacking team has a ball within six yards of the end line. I find it picayune to call a player offside by a half-step when the ball has been whipped in from the corner. Just my opinion. I'm sure I'm not in the majority.
Larger World Cup, from the view of this CONCACAF fan, I think it is the right thing to do. For many countries, just making the World Cup is a big deal and by extending to 48 teams, berths would be attainable by the 'fat middle' teams (statistically speaking).
I would start off with 16 groups of three. Top two from each group move on to 8 groups of four (just like today). Teams would move together and thus would not have to play each other again in the second round (result from first round would apply).
One other change I would love to see (and I think I first saw this mentioned here on the oatie) is having penalties before extra time. I would prefer to see penalties used to put one team in a position where they must chase the game rather than used as the ultimate decider of a match.
