If matches are level after ninety minutes, aĀ penalty shootoutĀ will be held with the winning team gaining a bonus point ' Ffs the sfa are a joke. A penalty shoot out if its still a draw after 90. Ā Sounds like settings for a computer game (fifa/pes) Ā Does this mean the winner gets 4 points? OrĀ does it count as a draw and one team gets a point but the penalty winners get 2?

CooperSF 5,792 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Win = 3 points Draw (and win the penalty shoot-out) = 2 points Loss = 0 points What's stopping teams just holding out for 90 mins and winning the shoot-out? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Windass and Crooks are 10 levels above anything they have, big Clint and Gilks aren't the most glamourous names but they are 10 levels above them as well.

Popular Post RFC55 108,862 Posted July 14, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2016 Lads was anyone else really impressed by forester like I was last season before injury? He kinda gave us our own version of a commons. Picks the ball up and if nothing is on he's not afraid to hit it. Hes got a bit of pace a good finisher and with a full pre season I think he will be a real asset. I've been taken by surprise by him. I actually think he's a technically good player.Ā Bears, Skyson1872, TheMotor and 6 others 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
