Unbelieveable! What the hell are they thinking??? The games Americanised enough with music after goals, cheerleaders etc. So why do we want to get rid of draws?! It seems harsh on the team who fighting against relegation sneaks a draw at the league leaders only to get shafted by penalties!

That would be such a load of crap if that were to happen! 2 teams who matched each other evenly over 90 mins and both deserved a draw (1 point for their efforts) end up having to enter themselves into the very unpredictable lottery that is penalty shoot outs. Be very harsh on the losing teams imo.

It's just stupid. The away team would just defend for the whole 90 mins and wait for the penalty shoot-out and it would make the game more boring than it is now. People obviously don't think this stuff through do they.

And within the day the idea is ridiculed!

Absolutely ridiculous if it happens, the game is becoming too Americanised as it is.
