World Cup-style added time set to be brought to Premier League from next season in huge shake-up to rules

International FA Board will discuss time-keeping at its business meeting at Wembley today. World Cup opener against Iran saw 27 minutes of added time across both halves. New PGMOL chief Howard Webb received the green light to stick with the approach in operation since the start of the season. Final decision for next season will not be made until the AGM back at the Wembley in March. Premier League bosses will also be given a steer over whether they will be allowed to trial temporary concussion substitutes next term. There will an update on the Far East trial of Arsene Wenger’s proposed “daylight” offside Law and the success of Semi-Automated Offside Technology applied in Qatar.
