Probably no longer under surveillance
In the interest of allowing more goals in the game, if goalkeepers were not allowed to wear gloves then surely that would let more goals in?
How about slippy gloves then?Keeper hands would also break.
I've made this argument before on a thread here and it's geniusI’m pretty sure goalposts were created by a Scottish team in the late 1800s. I remember an argument saying the average male was around 4 to 5 inches shorter then than it is now.
So the idea of increasing the size of the goal is not actually that far out.
If your purpose is to have more goals, then removing GK gloves isn’t the one. You might as well just make bigger goals.In the interest of allowing more goals in the game, if goalkeepers were not allowed to wear gloves then surely that would let more goals in?
You want less goals? Make the goal smaller.Why do you need more goals? There are way too many goals already.
why do we need more goals?In the interest of allowing more goals in the game, if goalkeepers were not allowed to wear gloves then surely that would let more goals in?
The question is Why??I’m pretty sure goalposts were created by a Scottish team in the late 1800s. I remember an argument saying the average male was around 4 to 5 inches shorter then than it is now.

I'd watch thatWhy not make the goals extend all the way between the cornerflags, double the height, and equip goalkeepers with pogostick stilts.
I wrote a letter in 1995 to the FA saying the same thing. The goals should be increased to 9ft x 9yds because how much bigger goalies are now since the 1800s. Never even got a reply.I’m pretty sure goalposts were created by a Scottish team in the late 1800s.

You just caused me to remember this April Fools prank that appeared in the press some time in the 90s. They wrote articles as though they were seriously going to release goalie gloves of this size. Fooled a younger me for a few minutes.One of these days a keeper should wear gloves that are the size of the entire goal. Easiest clean sheet ever!
I don’t think gloves would have made a difference mate. You shattered your wrist. Someone probably stamped and twisted his studs on it.I'm someone who shattered their wrist joint last year playing in goal, I was off work for 2 months with no pay.
Gloves all the way!
Remove goalkeepers.If your purpose is to have more goals, then removing GK gloves isn’t the one. You might as well just make bigger goals.
No, the goal should constantly be moving, and not from side to side, but a little to the left, the right, erratic.We should make the goal oval shaped too, to increase the chances if the ball going in from random directions
No ass shit please, there are children watchingAdd an area behind the net like in hockey. Would allow for some fun ass shit
Same, saved a shot with no gloves on a few years ago, hurt like feck. Went for a scan the next day and I’d broken my wrist in 2 placesI'm someone who shattered their wrist joint last year playing in goal, I was off work for 2 months with no pay.
