I think it's time that football adopted the time keeping system used in rugby. So the clock stops for injuries and substitutions. Then at 90 mins the first time it goes out of play, the game is over. An end to the mystery of added minutes really needs to go.

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football. |

Agreed 60 minutes per game with the clock stopping each time play ceased would be good. Burnley and West Brom had the ball in play for only 46 mins and 40 seconds!
