Hands up who fucking hates Sepp Blatter...
BERLIN (Reuters) - FIFA president Sepp Blatter has proposed scrapping draws in soccer, saying every game should have a winner.
In an idea which would revolutionise the world's most popular sport if adopted, Blatter suggested that games could be decided by a penalty shoot-out in the case of a draw.
"Every game should have a winner," Blatter, president of soccer's ruling body, told German sports news agency SID.
"When you play cards or any other game, there's always a winner and a loser. We should have the courage to introduce a final decision in every game of football."
Blatter said the best way would be penalties but added he would study any other proposal.
Football has never been more popular than it currently is now, why the need to tinker with it all the time?
This is just the lastest in a long line of lame ideas, e.g. golden goals, silver goals, enlarging the goalposts, the non-interfering off-side player, quarters instead of halfs, etc.
Opinions?
