For those of you who don't like sport - there's SPORT!

I wrote to FIFA about this and got a reply. Who'd have guessed?

Sorry there's been so little this month. Putting my back out again while mending my bike didn't help. Lots more next month!

The end of penalty shootouts! An alternative has been found

Here I propose an alternative to replace the near-universally-hated penalty shootouts to decide football matches in major competitions. I also discuss why low-scoring games are good. I contacted FIFA and got a reply - so is change coming?

I tried something similar when I was coaching kids football. Near the end of the game I started to have anyone making a mistake like failing to keep the ball in the game sent off. It was remarkable how quick the game ended. They had free substitutes so in theory they could have "fresh" players in, but it never occured to them. The game never lasted more than five more minutes anyway. For some reason the kids opted for a penalty shootout.
