Fuck off top-flight football.
Is this a rule throughout the leagues or just the top divisions?

It'll apply to every league if they want it, and they tend to copy the top ones, although non-league will probably stick with however many they have now.

Don't mind the five subs rule but only on condition that you have to make two of them before kick off.

It’s such a stupid decision. Football is so simple but they do their very best to ruin it.

It's not a small advantage.  City can afford to quality throughout their bench and theoretically bring on 5 game changing players.  The fact that players are more likely to get gametime helps them retain players who may have otherwise looked for a move.  Clubs like Villa will have 1 or 2 decent options on the bench and the rest full of average squad fillers like Jota and Lansbury.

It will need 14 clubs to vote for it to be adopted by the Premier League.

That's right, so on that basis can't see it being approved, fingers crossed.

I'm up for it on the condition that at half time, rather than The Prize Where It Lies, the crowd get to nominate two subs (from either side) to be executed pitch-side. The Prize Where it Dies, if you like.

So long as we don't rely on Samatta and Davis to form the firing squad, or it could take days.

Even bloody Everton were able to benefit from making 5 changes.
