I'm surprised it took them this long, what with removing a shirt after scoring a goal being an offence for years.
16.5 subsection B - goals must NOT be enjoyed, [player] must prevent adrenaline from taking over when celebrating a goal. Also, shave those sideburns
One rule thing I saw is that in France and (I think) Germany over the weekend, the referees called a temporary halt in proceedings halfway through each half for players to drink water. Not by UEFA mandate, they just all agreed that it's sensible to do in a heatwave. Common sense isn't completely dead in football after all!

I seem to remember back in 1994 during the World Cup. There was a heatwave at the time. Eire were playing someone or other (might have been Brazil)
Who are Eire?
I seem to remember back in 1994 during the World Cup. There was a heatwave at the time. Eire were playing someone or other (might have been Brazil) and during a very short minute or so while someone was being treated for an injury, the other players came to the touchline to get a drink of water. The ref threatened to book them! Jack Charlton (manager) was going mental! I think it may have been after this that players were allowed to take on fluids during a lull in play. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
Edit: Just checked. It was against Holland. (The ref was Danish! Surprise, surprise! Neighbours!) It was the Citrus Bowl, in Orlando, Florida
Between that and the Aldridge substitution it was an angry ol' time for the Irish, that.
Ireland? :facepalm:
Being booked for removing you top in excitement after scoring a goal. That is just NOT a bookable offence in my eyes. It's bureaucracy gone mad!
or, how about this, just dont take your top off !!
When i make a sale at work, i dont take off my shirt and run around the office with it, nor do i lift it up to unvail a handwritten t-shirt saying "happy 87th birthday grandma"
if your gonna start taking stuff off when you score, at least do it properly

Making a sale or scoring a goal? Not comparable! Scoring a goal has always been likened to having sex and, most of the time, tops are off with that!
Damn man. You need to have some better sex!
