. What is this thread?I remember a clip doing the rounds years ago of I think it was Ronaldinho who was able to hit both posts and then into goals with a single shot(at will obviously). How many points for that?
Should teams be rewarded for hitting the post?

Fun fact: Zlatan publicly said that clip must be fake because it would be impossible to hit the bar that consistently.

Yes, rewarded with "UnluckY" by the commentators.
We hit the post twice in the opening game against United. According to the new rules I just came up with, it cancels out four goals we conceded and makes Chelsea a deserved winner of the match. I'll notify the FA immediately.
I hope you were high when you started the thread.
I'm pretending to be high and I will ask you this: What happens when football will become a "let's hit the bar competition because we're too fecking useless to score?"
The bar is a much smaller target so require more skill to hit. Think about how you get a treble in darts versus a single for hitting the big number.
Fantastic idea! You’ve just flicked a switch here...
Obviously Zlatan is an expert in judging if a player is legitimately aiming for the post. Therefore, he could be the VPA (Virtual Post Analyser) with live footage of his reaction and he could determine how many goals it is worth.
I do think efforts that hit the post/bar should go down on as attempts on target personally (I understand why they don't though)
Not the best idea really. What they should do though is award goals based on from how many yards you scored. So let’s say you score a goal from 7 yards out, that’s 0.7 goals, if you score from 22 yards out, it would count as 2.2 goals and so on. It would add a whole new level of strategy to the game and guys like Rashford and Pogba would thrive.
I want to change the whole thing. Put this one in instead, let the keeper stand on a trampoline so he can get the high shots. Count the numbers after 90 minutes. A bulls eye wins the match like a golden goal.
Delighted to wake up and see the vast, vast majority in favour of the idea.
It's not though, is it? Wait. Is it?
there's people in here biting who should really know betterGreat replies. Shite topic
Doesn't seem the place for a serious post, but I'll make one anyway because I've been thinking about this recently. In football, one goal is a very big deal, and could decide the outcome of an entire game: it makes every attack more exciting, every switch in possession potentially highly consequential, etc... You start adding other stuff to this, and I feel like you run the risk of losing the suspense that the possibility of a single goal brings. 1 goal means less if there's the possibility of, say, 2 goals for a strike from 25 yards, and it possibly shifts the game more towards shooting than dribbling, passing and good build up play. The point was about half goals, but it could open the door to stuff like that.

Yes! And between minutes 40 and 45 and 85 and 90, we should have ‘MULTI-BALL’ where there are 350 balls simultaneously thrown on the pitch.
I like it but a bit kitch.I want to change the whole thing. Put this one in instead, let the keeper stand on a trampoline so he can get the high shots. Count the numbers after 90 minutes. A bulls eye wins the match like a golden goal.
How about we give the Goalkeeper a bungee chord and he is only allowed a certain distance from his goals because Of the bungee chord.
Would make pass backs to the goalie so much more fun.
Jack Grealish is angered by your suggestion.
Over the bar = 1 goal
Actual goal = 3 goals
Actual goal = 3 goals
just go the whole hog and play Gaelic Football.
Its solves the offside and handball controversies too
This still puts us behind American football where you get 6 goals for a goal
2 Goals if it hits both posts and bounces off the keeper.
2 1/2 if if the keeper gets knocked out.
Post + opposite post + crossbar = super jackpot.
If you manage to achieve this feat, a giant 100-foot pez despenser sprouts from the center circle and spits thousands of mini Rachel Riley's out over the lucky winner.
Aaaaaand it’s too late
You still have time to delete this thread before the UK audience wakes up
What a stupid idea.
Instead, give a penalty for it. Give whoever shot a fair second chance.

Add a multi-ball system; with balls of varying values (let's say 1 x multiplier for a red ball and 7 x multiplier black...) and you've got a winner.I want to change the whole thing.

I think if the same player hits the post twice (or maybe thrice) in a match, it should be a goal. That way it'll encourage players who've already hit the post once to basically shoot on site.
Should make the nets bigger and put a third post in the middle to make things more interesting. Would add an element of risk for the goalkeeper when diving.
Low scoring games are killing soccer and it’s about time something innovative was done to improve the sport.

Have VAR watch the highlights and some bloke to analyse xG, then decide the score by the majority vote of experts.
Appreciate your support. I'm not saying my idea is rock solid - but something needs done to get young children off the Fortnite and back playing soccerball
People failing to see the obvious irony here...
Yes, we can have a "moral" table, so these woodwork shots can be counted as a goal, and at the end whichever team tops the "moral" league, gets to be "moral" champions. A great propaganda...
Comedy gold this thread!
Classic thread already
What about rewards for the distance the ball was from the goal?
<1m = 0.5 goals
<5m = 0.25 goals
...
<50m = 0.05 goals
<1m = 0.5 goals
<5m = 0.25 goals
...
<50m = 0.05 goals
