Seriously, I think the points system should be changed to encourage attacking football. 1 point for a no-score draw, 2 points for a score draw and 3 points for a win

I remember someone (a manager or pundit, maybe a chairman, can't remember) suggested 4 points for an away win, 3 for a home win, 2 for an away draw, 1 for a home draw.
It would be interesting to see if the league tables are much different either way.

Good one.
I'd introduce a barbilliards style mushroom (but bigger - mansized) that if you knocked it over with the ball reset the opposition's score to zero. You could be 5-0 down with a minute to go and win one nil. It'd work against us obviously.
Cracking idea although on that basis Parky and most of our first team squad would be potless and living on the streets by now. And Weaver would have been forced to moonlight in the occupation we used to associate with him.
Referees do not have to explain their decisions although I agree in certain circumstances they don't help themselves when they say nothing (esp the awful Rob Styles). Football is the only sport where refs just aren't trusted and are continually dissented against by players, managers and the media. In cricket the umpire's decision is final as it is in rugby and any dissent is quickly and harshly dealt with on the pitch and after the match. I do agree that football refs do need the use of technology which is making lives easier for 21st century cricket umpires and rugby referees, it's about time football came up to date!!!
If I could change one rule I would say no teams in red and white can be relegated apart from Forest, Doncaster and Southampton lol...
If a ref makes a mistake that costs one team a victory and this is established on video then said official should be placed in stocks and fans of the wronged side can hurl piss soaked sponges at him. The fans have to make a charitable donation of ten pounds, so it would be doing a lot of good.
Bookings and sendings off should result in points deductions not suspensions.
For example what good is it to Charlton when a bloke picking his fifth yellow of the season playing against us is then suspended for his club's next game against Doncaster. Our relegation rivals have the advantage of playing a weakened team because of an offence commited against Charlton.

Very european. I went to see FC Copenhagen and not only can you drink beer in the stands they sell you them in natty cardboard carry handles which means you can transport 8 at once without spillage fear.
Ref only sees said situation once at normal speed. Sky slow things down and use 10 different angles so there's no doubt top flight refs still make goofs. As said before with the right use of video technology it can only help with the right decision in the end. I do not believe with the 'refs on trial' vein that most footy fans persue. Referees are going to make decisions that will upset one side or the other and just because that decision may go against CAFC don't thnk that ref is bias in any way, shape or form. I go to games now supporting Charlton 100% but seeing the game from the refs point of view. Quite bizarre!!!

That's the one we need, Ads. Quality!

Or failing that I would retrospectively deduct points for diving. One point if you get an opponent booked, 2 for a red card or penalty.
Which the fans get to vote for? I'm sure that would mean we'd have Dickson or Shelvey on at half time every game.
