I see the Charity Shield went to penalties and they adopted the new ABBA format for taking them. Any thoughts on the system Bhoys and Ghirls? (seems a fairer one to me anyway)

The system is based on the format used in tennis tie-breaks, with the team taking the first kick in each pair of kicks alternating, so AB BA AB BA and so on instead of AB AB AB AB etc.

Don't understand it at all. The thinking was about all the pressure being on the second team, and this new way makes it fairer for the second team. Garbage theory and a garbage solution it solves one problem but makes another. Pointless.

It looked stupid to be honest and killed the contest/ art of the pressure of the shoot out because one team missed twice in succession, took away the theatre of it IMO

Few stupid things in our game but no need to mess with penalty shoot out (Y)
