Subject: That's very interesting. Do you have a link? CB jokes about helmets, but I do wonder why no soft protective headgear? As we know, Raul has that band to protect his fractured skull, and had something bigger before.
In reply to: f bloke 's message, "It is worth searching the Glasgow university research on this - the research is somewhat damning. They need more data but all the indications are that the weight of the ball makes no difference since the balls are now more aerodynamic and travel at far greater velocity than the old balls. If anything, the suspicion is that the new balls may cause more damage. What would be worth trialling is banning all headers outside of the penalty boxes." on Tuesday, December 10, 01:46:31pm

  • It will change when players can no longer get insurance to cover neuro degenerative disorders in later life, or when players start to sue the clubs or football authorities. I think this is a change that will come sooner than we might think. I think it might actually improve the game as a spectacle if they ban it.
