BTW, these rules also disadvantage the weaker teams who will spend less time in oppo box and as result no doubt be the victims of these decisions more often than they benefit.
Imagine being manager of a struggling team and you set them up perfectly against a top team and your boys give all they have, then in last min ball bounces in to back of defenders arm and bye bye to the point.
Steve Bruce showed a lot of class to be so outspoken despite benefitting from it, but he knows his side will suffer more than most from this in long term.
