The board also called for an improvement in player behaviour towards referees and officials, and to reduce instances of diving and time-wasting.
“The behaviour of players and coaches towards match officials in several recent instances has become a critical issue and does not contribute positively to the good image of the game,” the statement said.
“The Board concluded that it is important for coaches to set the example for their teams and for the mobbing of officials to be eliminated.”
They also called for a player-led campaign to discourage “situations of players faking injuries to gain an unfair advantage, waste time and disrupt the flow of the game”.
*Yeah that’ll happen!*
Changing the bar during a season on what constitutes a foul, or a handball before VAR consider telling the referee he needs to go to the monitor, is really frustrating.
That’s why it’s so inconsistent.
