In basketball, once you cross the center line on offense, you're not allowed to go back unless it's deflected by the defense.
Tell me why applying this rule in soccer wouldn't make the game 100 times more exciting

Please respond
Brandon Watson
Not a bad idea imo
Add a 3 second defensive violation in the box too
Daniel Allen
Teams would just not send anybody forward
Thomas Phillips
Hello
Alexander Jackson
Sounds good
No, fuck you
Hudson Butler
Why would they do that?
Nathaniel Allen
the game wouldn't flow t.bh. >21 players in one half of the pitch sounds like mourinho's dream
Jacob Richardson
Add a shot clock too. Dicking around the box with passes for too long ends the possession.
Ian Hughes
What happens if they do go back over the line? A free kick?
Josiah Morgan
I would imagine nobody would be so retarded as to bring their entire team forward but ok.
Sure. Indirect from the spot where the ball is touched on the defensive side of the line.

Ryder Cooper
We have enough pacebabbies in the sport already

Logan Wood
How does this affect pace?
What did he mean by this
Liam Sullivan
Teams would send more players over the halfway line to retain possession, so counter attacking would be more effective.
Maybe.
Aaron Sullivan
there's a thread for this already m8
Adam Martin
Is there a thread for 7-1 as well, Mr. Thread Police?
Mason Green
It would end with even more defensive tactics (why would you risk a counterattack?) so no
Levi Wood
Then why are you here?
Asher Stewart
?
Brody Miller
You would just leave your defenders back behind the line to protect if you really wanted to. I don't really see how preventing backwards passes will lead to more counter attacks.
Charles Peterson
...
Caleb Stewart
Because you're assuming that that will lead to more attacking football. More than likely, it would lead to more passes between the defence, baiting the oposition for a counter attack
Owen Hughes
It would still open the game up to pace babby counter attacks, or overly defensive formations. Think about it, you can't push to many forward because if something breaks down you can't go back to keep possession. So stay do you do instead? Leave 7 behind the line and play hoof ball and hope for the best
